Reasoning: Decided to go with the game with the most potential fireworks as my primary stack and i’ll get different elsewhere. Herbert pushed the ball downfield a bit more last week so I’m hopeful that’s a sign of things to come. Keenan Allen is a great value and stands to see his snaps ramp up going forward. Everett is falling under the radar and correlating my TE with my primary stack brings me a zen feeling. James Conner’s workhorse role going up against a 2 high safety obsessed defense is one of my favorite plays of the week. Regardless of how this game script goes he has a chance to hit.
Going back to my 3 RB ways and Jeff Wilson is an obvious one. At his price he’d be a good play even if Mostert played but with him being doubtful, in a matchup that you couldn’t create a better one in a lab…give me all the Wilson. D’Onta Foreman is my pivot play at the position. On a rainy day at home versus a offensively challenged Broncos team, Foreman could legitimately push for 30 carries. It carries risk because of the low totaled nature of this game and his light pass game involvement but it’s a chance I like taking.
Mike Evans is a guy I like going to when everybody is off because he’s always got multi TD upside. The Browns defense being 26th in EPA per dropback helps as well. Zay Jones was a last man in that projected the best at lower rostership.
On defense I think I’ve found a leverage point. Joe Burrow I think will be decently popular for those that don’t want to pay all the way up at QB. Teams throw a lot on the Titans because of how well they defend the run and without Joe Mixon the Bengals should probably lean more on Burrow’s arm. The matchup looks good for him and he’ll definitely be in lineups for me but looking at the other side of things, the Bengals will be without Ja’marr Chase and Burrow has taken the 3rd most sacks in the NFL. I’ll take my chances on Jeffrey Simmons, Denico Autry and company.
