Each week I’ll comb through the options at each position to bring you my picks for the players with the best combination of safety and upside over a wide price range. These are guys you’ll use in cash games for the most part, but there’s nothing wrong with slotting a couple into your tournament lineups as well for stability. There are so many more players that I want exposure to this week than I can possibly write about, so I’ve tried to highlight situations that could be taken advantage of in more than one way.

 

Quarterback

Ryan Fitzpatrick $5400: Fitzpatrick rivals Blake Bortles for most surprisingly consistent fantasy option this year. He’s had exactly one bad week yet is as affordably priced as ever. The Jets are fighting for their playoff hopes in Buffalo this weekend, where Fitzpatrick will face an inconsistent passing defense. I like his chances at a multi-touchdown game with Brandon Marshall playing out of his mind and Eric Decker almost touchdown-automatic.
