Davante Adams

Odds: +700 via DraftKings Sportsbook

The Saints are dealing with multiple injuries in their secondary. They placed Bradley Roby on IR this week, and Marshon Lattimore did not participate in practice on Wednesday. The Saints have allowed 30 or more points in their last three games and have given up the second most points this season. Josh Jacobs has scored six TDs in his previous three games, but Adams has the better matchup. Adams was targeted nine times in week seven and owns a 29.7-percent team target share this season. He presents solid value this week, considering he has five TDs already.
