Line: -7.5
O/U: 48.5

Summary

                Tampa Bay heads to Atlanta for a divisional showdown this week. The Bucs are the clear underdog this week as they boast a 2-4 record, while the Falcons are 6-1 and undefeated at home. The general consensus suggests this game could get out of hand fast as the falcons put points on the board. The Bucs have shown a pretty consistent defense with limiting yards, but they have yet to play an offense like the Falcons.

DFS Players To Consider
(at Draftkings prices)

Buccaneers

J. Winston 5.2k - Winston looks to play catchup against the Falcons this week, so expect him to air it out most of the day. A stack with Evans makes for a great tournament play against a beatable falcons defense. I would keep Winston out of cash lineups though as his floor is not too high. Winston should be low owned in general as well. 

M. Evans 6.8k - Evans blew up last week with 12 targets, hauling in 8 of them for 164 yards. With V. Jackson out, M. Evans is guaranteed lots of targets. With the Bucs playing catchup in this matchup, there is great potential for opportunities here. Keep an eye on V. Jackson's status as it could interfere with his total potential. 

Falcons

M. Ryan 7.1k - I think Ryan is a little bit overpriced in general, but Ryan could blow up in this game. The Bucanneers defensive numbers seem pretty good, but you have to account for some of the poor offenses the Bucs have faced this season. 

D. Freeman 8k - Is the Devonta train over? At 8k Draftkings finally caught up to the true price of Freeman. I feel Freeman should be faded in this game, but I have been proven wrong many times by this guy. 

J. Jones 9.2k - Even though Jones is very expensive, I like him better than Freeman in this game. Jones has a solid floor and great upside in this matchup against the Bucs; if you can make room for him. Jones has come off his nagging hamstring and is ready to produce, potentially taking work away from Freeman. 

R. White 3.9k - With Hankerson out, we could expect to see more passes going White's way. White hasn't put up any big numbers and has a low floor however. 

Falcons DST 3.4k - The Falcons defense has great potential this week with the Bucs possibly having to air it out more to keep pace.
