Gambling911.com has your New Orleans Saints Daily Fantasy Football season outlook for 2015.
The focus will be on starting quarterback Drew Brees ($8500), running back Mark Ingram ($6800) and wide receiver Brandin Cooks ($5300) (all salaries approximate and subject to change throughout the season). Oddsmakers have the Saints favored to win no more than 8 regular season games.
Because we prefer our stud quarterbacks to make approximatly 3X their value, Brees will need around 25 Fantasy points to make value. He has scored over 30 Fantasy points on three occasions during the past three seasons against Tampa Bay (consider him for Week 2 and December 13 – Week 14). He has enjoyed modest success against Carolina over the past three seasons, making or exceeding value in four of the last six meetings. We would avoid Brees versus Atlanta. Brees should be considered for your roster in Week 1 as he hit 37.2 Fantasy points against the Cardinals when last facing them in 2013.
Ingram will need around 19 Fantasy points to exceed value at DraftKings. Ingram exceeded value in more than half the games he played in last season, keeping in mind he missed four games.
Cooks will need around 12 Fantasy points to make value. He is probably the best player on offense. Avoid him December 21 against Detroit, a team he barely scored 5 Fantasy points against last season. Avoid him in Week 4 versus Dallas.
CJ Spiller ($5800 is someone to watch in the running back position after disappointing Fantasy owners for five years up in Buffalo. He’s going to be getting the ball a lot. In 2011 Spiller had over 21 Fantasy points against Atlanta, a team he will face twice this season.
