If you’re in the daily fantasy sports (DFS) game, you need as many tools as possible to help set your lineup. Sure, there are some things you’ll disagree with, but not acknowledging stats or information is usually a mistake. FanDuel has acquired numberFire to help on some projections for NFL players for each week to give you another tool to help.
FanDuel daily fantasy projections, Week 14: Tight ends
Gary Barnidge isn’t the top guy for price, but he gets a great matchup and just got paid. Here are the FanDuel fantasy projections.

Here are the fantasy projections for Week 14:
Top tier
We're probably not going to have Rob Gronkowski again, so tight end is unbelievably thin. Gary Barnidge tops the projects this week and is priced favorably at $6,200 against the San Francisco 49ers. He's your guy unless you need to go cheap. Plus, Tyler Eifert and Greg Olsen are banged up.
Bargains
If you need to save $900, Benjamin Watson is in play. Receiver Brandin Cooks had a concussion in practice, but he'll play. Maybe he's limited though. The matchup isn't great, but he definitely could be your man in the current situation. Plus, no Mark Ingram should give him more targets, too.
Elite players with subpar matchups
As mentioned above, Eifert, Olsen and Gronk are all going to be at less than 100 percent -- some at zero. Travis Kelce is also not really a reliable guy against a solid San Diego Chargers secondary.
