DFS.com has your Green Bay Packers Daily Fantasy Football picks for 2015 with early season pricing courtesy of StarFantasyLeagues.com and subject to change.
We all know that starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers ranks among the top five fantasy QBs in the league but he also comes at a price: $8.5K on average at the top Daily Fantasy Sports sites.
Knowing the injuries that are stacking up for Green Bay, one might wish to consider wide receiver Jeff Janis, priced at just $3K.
Matthew Berry of ESPN.com writes of Janis:
I say Jeff Janis, currently being undrafted, is a top-30 wide receiver this season. My thinking: As of this writing, Jordy Nelson is out for the year, Randall Cobb is banged up and Ty Montgomery is considered the favorite for the third-down role, so I like Janis, who is truly the best remaining deep threat on the team. I believe he’ll be a bit of a fantasy whack-a-mole, but that offense needs to take shots deep. Janis, who has scored multiple times in the preseason, will be a poor man’s Torrey Smith/DeSean Jackson type for Green Bay and wind up top-30.
