Monday Night NFL FanDuel Picks: Rams @ 49ers

Welcome to our single game breakdown for Week 10 Monday Night Football. This article will provide a quick analysis of players to consider on FanDuel for this matchup between the Rams and 49ers. We’re excited to announce that The FF Faceoff is an official affiliate of FanDuel, so if you haven’t signed up, do so here. Let’s get right to it in Monday Night NFL FanDuel Picks: Rams @ 49ers.

To close out Week 10 in the NFL, the Los Angeles Rams head to San Fransisco to take on the 49ers. The Rams are currently a 3.5 point favorite and the game features a 50.5 total.  Rams wide receiver Robert Woods tore his ACL and will be out for the season, which will open up a large target share in the offense. The Rams signed Odell Beckham Jr. earlier this week, so it remains to be seen how much they are willing to use him after just one week of practice. Ben Skowronek is another wide receiver mentioned to help fill the void left by Robert Woods, but he is listed as questionable. For the 49ers, both JaMycal Hasty and Mohamed Sanu Sr. are out.

MVP Options

Matthew Stafford ($17,000)

Matthew Stafford is averaging 22.5 fantasy points per game this season, throwing multiple touchdowns in every game but two. He has not scored below 15 fantasy points this season, so he has a safe floor as well. The 49ers have surrendered the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks at 21.2 per game. Stafford has attempted 30 passes in all but two games, giving him the volume needed to be the slate’s highest-scoring player.

Cooper Kupp ($16,000)

Cooper Kupp has been the beneficiary of this revamped offense under Matthew Stafford averaging 22 fantasy points per game. Kupp has seen nine or more targets in every game this season while averaging 11.4 targets per game. He is also leading the entire NFL in red-zone targets, red-zone catches, and red-zone touchdowns. While the 49ers have done a good job limiting opposing wide receivers, Kupp has too much volume and red-zone involvement to ignore.

Flex Plays

Darrell Henderson ($12,000)

Darrell Henderson has taken a big step forward this season in leading the Rams backfield as their primary back. He has averaged 17.5 touches per game and has found the end-zone seven times. He also has received 70% of the team’s carries inside the five-yard line. The 49ers’ run defense has been right around the league average, so given his volume and goal-line work he makes for a great play.

George Kittle ($10,500)

While George Kittle has been underwhelming at times this year and had a lengthy absence due to injury, his volume has been there when he’s active. Over his last three games, he has averaged nine targets per game. The Rams defense has been pretty good the season, but they have given up the 8th most points in the league to opposing tight ends, so getting to Kittle is a priority.

Value Plays

Tyler Higbee ($7,500) & Van Jefferson ($8,000)

As I mentioned earlier Robert Woods is out for the season leaving a large role within this offense. The Woods injury abandons 45 catches on 69 targets for 556 yards and four touchdowns. Until Odell Beckham Jr. has had more time to learn the offense, I believe both Tyler Higbee and Van Jefferson will see additional work. Higbee has posted a 35-324-2 line so far this season, while Jefferson has 27-433-3. Both are already involved in the offense, so the additional volume each could see makes them great value plays.

Jeff Wilson ($5,000)

Jeff Wilson was activated off of the IR before last week’s game but did not play a snap. Elijah Mitchell played on 66% of snaps while JaMycal Hasty played in the other 34%. With Hasty already being ruled out, Wilson could step into his workload. Wilson has shown flashes of being a great runner, and his salary allows you to go after multiple top options.
