Both teams are in must win positions and Pittman is Minshew’s go-to guy. He’s averaging over 70+ yards per game and had less than 60+ yards in a game only three times this season.
Jonathan Taylor 50+ Rushing Yards -270
19+ carries in each of his last 5 games played and averaging 4 YPC this season projecting for 76 rushing yards.
C.J. Stroud 2+ Passing Touchdowns-111
He hasn’t thrown for two or more TD’s since week 12 against the Jaguars, but with an opportunity to get into the playoffs and further his OROY campaign I’m betting he gets it done.
Dalton Schultz 25+ Receiving Yards -420
Schultz has shown that he can go missing in action at times this year, registering less than 10+ receiving yards in a game 4 times. However, that all happened when Tank Dell was still on the field demanding targets. Without Dell, and in a must-win scenario, it all projects for a strong showing from Schultz.
Value pick here. A week off and a good matchup for Levis has me optimistic.
Running Backs
Rachaad White vs. Saints – $7,900
White has scored double-digit fantasy points in 10 straight games and the Saints are 25th in the league in rushing defense.
James Cook vs. Patriots – $7,600
Despite a juicy matchup, Cook is affordable, likely because his poor performance last week. New OC Joe Brady has done wonders for the dynamic young RB.
Zamir White @ Colts – $6,100
Jacobs is currently doubtful for the game and White is coming off a 145 yard rushing game.
Wide Receivers
Stefon Diggs vs. Patriots – $7,600
In 8 career games against New England he has 7 TD’s and he has to bust out of this slump at some point.
Brandon Aiyuk @ Commanders – $7,500
Washington is 31st in passing defense and Purdy will be looking to make everyone forget about last week.
Zay Flowers vs. Dolphins – $6,300
He’s scored at least 17 fantasy points in 3 out of his last 4 games and is Lamar’s #1 option.
Tight Ends
Trey McBride @ Eagles – $6,800
Philadelphia is 27th in passing defense and McBride’s target share is massive.
Dalton Schultz vs. Titans – $6,200
11 targets last week and Stroud is back.
Isaiah Likely vs. Dolphins – $6,000
Despite a subpar matchup, he’s been a major factor in the Ravens offense the past three weeks.
Defense
Bills vs. Patriots – $4,900
The second priciest defense this week but the difference between the others is minimal. Plus you know they’ll be going all out for a playoff spot in front of their home crowd.
Colts vs. Raiders – $4,000
Las Vegas is the 29th ranked offense and the Colts had strung together some nice games before last week’s loss to Atlanta.
Raiders @ Colts – $3,900
4 defensive touchdowns in the past two weeks. Interim coach Antonio Pierce has this team inspired.
