Just like we look for the best line before placing a bet on an NFL game, we should be doing the exact same thing in NFL DFS. Prices, and especially the percentage of overall total cost when incorporating a salary budget of $50,000 on Draftkings and $60,000 on FanDuel, can vary for players on both sites. We’re always on the lookout for those discrepancies so we can pounce on that value, which then leaves us more money in our budget allowing us more flexibility to compile the perfect lineup. Here are some of my favorite value plays on both DraftKings and FanDuel for Week 14. Make sure you check out the full DFS Value Comparison chart.

DRAFTKINGS
Quarterbacks DK PRICE PERCENTAGE FD PRICE PERCENTAGE DIFFERENCE
Russell Wilson $6,200 12.4% $7,900 13.17% 0.77%
Jimmy Garoppolo $5,700 11.4% $7,100 11.83% 0.43%
Drew Brees $6,800 13.6% $8,400 14.0% 0.4%

Wilson is on the road in Denver but adds in rushing upside weekly. Garoppolo is in a dangerous matchup against Minnesota so he’s as contrarian as they get. Brees is shockingly a value on DK despite being in the most generous Week 1 matchup at home against Tampa Bay. He’s Ben Cummins’ top play of the week.
