3 Daily Fantasy Football Players to Avoid in Week 17

Brett Hundley, QB, Green Bay Packers

FanDuel Price: $6,000
DraftKings Price: $4,800

The discount pricing is appealing, and Brett Hundley has had his moments this season, scoring over 22 fantasy points in Weeks 12 and 14.

However, he looks likely to end the season on a quiet note. Hundley is coming off a brutal performance against the Minnesota Vikings (8.0 fantasy points), and he's losing weapons left and right with both Davante Adams and Jordy Nelson already ruled out for Week 17. Hundley has rushing upside, but it's difficult to see him having much success through the air with skeleton crew on the road against the Detroit Lions. The Green Bay Packers have an uninspiring 18.25 implied team total.

If you're searching for a dirt cheap quarterback, you're better off taking a shot at Patrick Mahomes. Mahomes comes with his own share of risks in a tough spot against the Denver Broncos, and possibly limited weapons himself if the Kansas City Chiefs choose to rest other starters. However, he's a tantalizing talent who performed well in the preseason and tallied 22 touchdowns with his legs at Texas Tech.
