FanDuel Lineup

QB: Dak Prescott ($7,700)

RB: Todd Gurley ($7,800)

RB: Carlos Hyde ($7,200)

WR: Larry Fitzgerald ($6,700)

WR: DeVante Parker ($6,100)

WR: Jordy Nelson ($8,600)

TE: Zach Ertz ($6,600)

K: Ryan Succop ($4,700)

D: Buffalo Bills ($4,600)

Remaining Salary: $0

This is a very well balanced lineup with very few weaknesses, if any. The only downfall to it is some of these players could be heavily owned. For that reason, I would consider making a few changes in bigger leagues with more than 5,000 people. Carlos Hyde could be the x-factor. He has scored double-digit points in every game this season but is still overlooked because of the terrible 49ers offense.

An alternative would be to switch Ertz to Engram and put that extra $1,200 towards an upgrade at WR, perhaps Parker to Keenan Allen or Tyreek Hill with a little juggling to your kicker and/or defense as well to free up the extra $100-200.
