7 NFL FanDuel Bargains for Week 9
Austin Hooper, TE, Atlanta Falcons
Price: $4,700
After seeing very little volume to start the year, Austin Hooper has games of six, seven, and nine targets among his last four games -- giving him a 17% target market share that is tied for 12th among tight ends during that time.
His efficiency has also been promising, with only five of the 31 tight ends that have seen at least 25 targets this year boasting a Reception NEP per target better than Hooper's 0.75. Combining that with his increasing workload should mean big things moving forward.
The Falcons offense hasn't been firing on all cylinders, but Hooper is priced only $200 above minimum salary, which doesn't capture the big increase in volume he has seen recently.
