FanDuel NFL Week 1 Lineup Picks, Advice & Analysis

QB: Eli Manning, NYG (at DAL), $7,200


Preseason star Dak Prescott at a minimum $5,000 is going to be the popular play here, but I like the quarterback on the other side of the field, especially when he is priced--perplexingly--as the 17th most expensive QB on FanDuel. Manning has improved his numbers in the last two seasons under offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo, who is now head coach and will continue to run the fast-paced, pass-friendly offense. Combine that with some top-notch weapons--namely Odell Beckham--and Manning is in line for a big season. That should start in Week 1 against a defense that will be without Randy Gregory, DeMarcus Lawrence and Roland McClain. (Getty)
