Quarterback Breakdown

At the quarterback spot, we have two high-priced options that make perfect sense: Josh Allen and Jayden Daniels. Josh Allen is in an okay matchup, and we know he offers the rushing ability. Jayden Daniels appears to be back, and I am liking his matchup slightly more. I am leaning on him, especially due to the DraftKings price tag. Caleb Williams is next up and has been inconsistent so far this season. To be different he is an option. Last but not least is Michael Penix, coming off a great game, but I don't trust the last game's production one bit.

Running Back Breakdown

Bijan Robinson and James Cook are at the top of the range in terms of price tags. I am loving Bijan Robinson with his pass-catching ability. James Cook was great this season, but the last game was a dud. Is this a bounce-back spot for him? The matchup I don't think so, and leaning towards Bijan Robinson. Next up, Jacory Croskey-Merritt is coming off an explosive game, and this matchup doesn't get much better than this one. I am liking him in my second running back spot. D'Andre Swift is a touchdown or bust option. The yardage isn't getting there for him despite the attempts. Tyler Allgeier is a vulture running back, but the snap count speaks for itself. If you need a flier on this slate that could score then look at Tyler Allgeier as the red zone threat. To circle back to the Bill's running backs is Ray Davis is next up in terms of DraftKings price tag, but he is not getting run like we thought, to say the least. Ty Johnson and Kyle Monangai are fades to me. Jeremy McNichols could be interesting if Chris Rodriguez is out of this game.

Wide Receiver Breakdown

Time to break down the wide receivers team by team. Starting with the Buffalo Bills, Keon Coleman and Khalil Shakir are the top two targets. The boom option is Keon Coleman, but if you want consistent production, then look at Keon Coleman. Joshua Palmer is a deep threat, especially if Curtis Samuel is out of this game. On the Atlanta Falcons, Drake London is coming off a huge game, but regression is near. I like the cheaper options, but he could be in play on the team. Darnell Mooney is out, and this opens up Casey Washington to see the workload of snaps increase. I am loving him as a cheap option. Ray Ray McCloud could pop if he catches the long ball in this game. On the Chicago Bears, Rome Odunze has taken the number one receiver role over DJ Moore. In terms of pivoting, DJ Moore is your guy due to the ownership being on Rome Odunze. The rookie in Luther Burden had a breakout game against the Dallas Cowboys, but then a dud in the next one. I am liking Olamide Zaccheaus as another cheap option to fill in on this slate. Last but not least are the Washington Commanders. Terry McLaurin and Noah Brown are out of this game, and Deebo Samuel is questionable. This leaves Luke McCaffrey to see a ton of snaps, and I am loving his production if he can break off a play. Jaylin Lane will see snaps, but is not seeing a ton of catches despite being on the field. Chris Moore could see more snaps on the field, but I like Casey Washington more.

Tight End Breakdown

The tight end spot could get interesting for the Buffalo Bills. Dalton Kincaid is questionable with an oblique injury. Dawson Knox is seeing a lot of work on the field and would be the number one option. Jackson Hawes is the same price as him, but give me Dawson Knox due to seeing more work. Next up is Kyle Pitts on the Atlanta Falcons, and I think he can have another great game in this matchup and will be the number two option with Darnell Mooney out. On the Chicago Bears, Colston Loveland is questionable with a hip injury, which could lead to Cole Kmet stepping up. The DraftKings price tag is too cheap for Cole Kmet if he is the lead option. On the Washington Commanders, Zach Ertz is coming off a dud game, but with injuries piling up could make him Jayden Daniel's guy.
