Quarterback (Very thin here this week. You could even pay down to Mitch Trash-Itsky and be ok)
Winston – I’m fine with running him by himself this week, instead of the Godwin/Evans guessing game. Nice spot at home against a porous secondary.
Fitzpatrick – I like Miami to win this game, and it’ll be done through Fitz. Unfortunately he did lose one of his top targets, but Fitz has been good in the past with less than great skill guys.
Brees – Brees at home, I’m a division game, which probably shoots out.
Running Backs (there’s a lot of backs I like this week)
CMC – Not much needed here to talk about. Great spot but finally priced right on Fanduel. He’s expensive, so if you fade you pray he doesn’t go for 35+ points.
Jones – Carolina is 25th in league giving up 111 yards per game on the ground. He was bottled up last week, but should break out and be involved in the passing game as well.
Barkley – Pivot off CMC. With all their injuries at the skill position, this may be the week we see 12+ targets. I think New York comes out and tries to establish the run against, where we see 25+ touches for Barkley.
Montgomery – Probably one of the chalk plays this week. Detroit has been gashed 3 straight weeks against rb’s where all went over 24 fantasy points.
Chubb – This will be the week Kitchens figures out they need to use their workhorse back. 3 100 yard games out of the last 5 and Cleveland is desperate for a win!
Samuels – He won’t run for a ton of yards, but the dude caught all 13 of his targets last week. Pittsburgh will more than likely be down in this game, so flow and targets will be there.
Wide Receivers
Godwin/Evans – Every week I flip a coin and get it wrong. So here’s my game theory. We can figure Evans will see some Peterson. Now, if they lock Evans up one on one with Peterson we have to go there. Height mismatch, targets, it’s just too good to pass up. If they run a cover 2 or 3 across the board then it’d Godwin who has the game. So to make it simple…….flip a coin.
Thomas – Would’ve liked to see Kamara out but it’s still a spot that’s tough to fade. In 6 career games, Thomas has caught 10 or more balls in 3 of those while also seeing 10 or more targets in 4 of those.
Ridley – He has destroyed this secondary in his short career. 15 catches on 21 targets, 239 yards and 4 td’s.
Tate – Target hog this weekend with all their injuries.
Pascal – Forced into the #1 receiver roll with Hilton out again. Indy will probably run a lot of 2 TE sets this week, so it’ll be a lot of short routes for him.
Others I like
Robbie Anderson
Parker
Tight End
Ebron – Reports from Indy saying that they’re be running 2 TE’s often. More opportunity for Ebron especially red zone opportunities.
Jonnu – 12 targets over the last 2 weeks filling in for Walker. Davis is out as well for Tennessee which should spin over to targets for Jonnu.
Hooper – Should see 7+ targets again this week. He’s the main beneficiary of Sanu leaving.
Defense
Miami – They score this week.
Rams
Ravens
