We wrap up the 2021 season this week! Let’s check out this week’s high-end picks, best values, and some buyer beware picks at wide receiver.
Cooper Kupp – ($9,700 DK, $10,000 FD) – So, in case you weren’t aware, Kupp is 12 receptions and 118 yards from breaking the all-time season records for catches and yards. So, you know damn well, the Rams will feed him the ball as much as possible. Therefore, when he hits those numbers along with a touchdown, he’s over 30 points this week! Book it!
Davante Adams – BEWARE – ($9,400 DK, $8,800 FD) – It’s rare to see a higher price tag on Draft Kings versus FanDuel, but there you go. Adams has the same problem scenario that Aaron Rodgers has in that he may only play one quarter. So be careful and just away from Adams this week and spend your money elsewhere on the slate.

Best Value – WR – Antoine Wesley – ($4,100 DK, $5,400 FD) – If you asked “WHO?”, that’s expected. Wesley was the #2 receiver for the Cardinals since Hopkins went down for the year with an injury. Welsey last week scored two touchdowns and scored 19 fantasy points. His price tag is still dirt cheap this week. So, get him in and save some cash for Cooper Kupp.
Best Mid-Value – WR – Darnell Mooney – ($5,900 DK, $6,300 FD) – Mooney has been the top receiver for the Bears for a number of weeks recently. This week, the Bears take on the Vikings. Both have nothing to play for, but pride. The Vikings rank DEAD LAST in giving up fantasy points to receivers this season and Mooney will benefit greatly from that. Andy Dalton is the quarterback for the Bears, so that may help Mooney as well. Oh yeah, Mooney has averaged 20.60 fantasy points per game when playing away versus a bad defense. He’s a great value this week.
