KYLER MURRAY (DK: $6800, FD: $8700)
I believe he rushes one in this week and that’s the entire reason I am going him over Daniels. But, wait, Daniels rushes too you say? Daniels played in Arizona before going to LSU you say! All valid points and I won’t really make a strong argument against any of them. I just REALLY believe Murray rushes in one.

JALEN HURTS (DK: $7200, FD: $8600)
This is a big put up or shut up spot for Jalen Hurts. I do not want to hear excuses about being down top two WR. The game plan is entirely on him and it should feature lots of quick passes, lots of read options and plenty of chances for him to prove that he can carry a team who has a lost coaching staff and depleted weapons. Good Quarterbacks win this game.
CJ STROUD (DK: $7000, FD: $7800)
Prime bounce back spot for Stroud and the Texans passing game.
ZACK MOSS (DK: $5900, FD: $6900)
This is no doubt a CORE pick for me this week and even though I love a Tee Higgins anytime touchdown too, we gotta pick on Carolina’s rush defense. It was horrendous again through two weeks and then dodged the bullet thanks to the Andy Dalton early Ambush of the Raiders. Things go back to the norm this week and the Bengals ride the ground game in the red zone which sets up RB1 Moss for a solid ceiling potential game.
JOSH JACOBS (DK: $6600, FD: $7100)
Huge early NFC North game and while the chalk sides with a 3 RB build this week I am curious that Jacobs is projecting under 10% ownership. While Jordan Love returns, I can’t see the Packers just ignoring Jacobs — a forever bellcow type guy — who can log 20 touches and produce one of the better floor/safe plays out there today. In any build with 3 RB he should be a key choice.

NICO COLLINS (DK: $7200, FD: $7700)
Until the Jaguars show a consistency in shutting out WR we should be considering them as a good target. No Tank Dell and Diggs off his revenge game sets this up to be a Nico all day game. His hammy is fine and he should shine.
AMARI COOPER (DK: $6300, FD: $6400)
Automatic Amari playing with DeShaun Watson right now. At this point just pencil him in for 7 catches, 85 yards and probably a touchdown. He should be 7k if not more and if Cleveland gives Watson time (iffy because they seem to hate him) then you can expect those floor numbers here again.
TEE HIGGINS (DK: $5900, FD: $7200)
Fucking love Higgins anytime touchdown. Moss versus him is a tough call for me as I dont always go heavy stack on one team but this is probably an exception.
GEORGE PICKENS (DK: $6100, FD: $5700)
The Colts secondary really doesn’t have the athleticism in my eyes to shutout Pickens
VALUE OPTIONS
- Michael Wilson, Greg Dortch (ARI)
- Rome Odunze (CHI)
- DeMario Douglas (NE)
- Mason Tipton (NO)
- Noah Brown (WSH)
TAYSOM HILL (DK: $3800, FD: $5000)
I project Kamara and Olave to play, but the reason on Taysom is … well, lets not bullshit, he’s playing the Falcons. But in all seriousness, the injuries on the OL should mean more guys who are better off run blocking & more sets with multiple TE and multiple RB/FB combinations allowing the Saints to try and ride Taysom in short yardage and take pressure off the passing game. Expect 10+ touches for a guy who is sub 4k. You would take a RB who got 10 carries for $4k. So why not a TE on a shitty TE week?
NOAH GRAY (DK: $2700, FD: $4900)
I am essentially refusing to pay up at TE this week and while I know there’s another TE on Kansas City, I want to avoid him at all costs until he proves he is the main weapon again (not likely). The Chargers have given up the most targets per game to opposing TE and Gray is a sleeper on a slate to punt TE.
OTHER OPTIONS
The only TE above 4k I’ll consider are Cole Kmet and Brock Bowers
I have no f’ing clue this week. It’s really a disaster situation, but this is my order of preference as of Sunday morning although it’s highly likely to change. Roll your dice however you feel fit today.
