Quarterback Kyler Murray FD 8800 DK 7900 Opponent DETProj Points FD - 24.15 DK - 24.88 It’s been a really good sign for Murray’s return to full health that he’s gotten out and run over the last couple of weeks, totally 17 attempts on the ground and piling up 120 yards and two touchdowns. It gives him such a high fantasy floor, something that only a few quarterbacks in the game have. I think we can pretty confidently roster him in cash this week against the Lions who ranks 31st in defensive DVOA and are equally terrible against both the pass and the run. Murray should be able to pile on the points here with the Cardinals still fighting for a first-round bye in the playoffs. Though he will be without DeAndre Hopkins in the receiving corps, the Cardinals still have plenty of weapons. Dak Prescott FD 7500 DK 6500 Opponent NYGProj Points FD - 21.15 DK - 21.94 The Cowboys face the Giants this week who rank 18th in overall DVOA this season, though it’s worth noting that they are better against the pass than the run. Dak hasn’t run as much as we would like this season, though did get out there seven times last week. But the pass attempts are up over the short-term, averaging more than 40 over the last four games. That’s a good sign even if the yards and touchdowns haven’t exactly followed. The price is in a tier lower than the stud quarterbacks for a reason. Dak’s performance just hasn’t warranted an increase. But I think this is the perfect time to buy relatively low considering the matchup. If Lamar Jackson were to sit out, I think Tyler Huntley makes for an interesting and cheap option.  Running Back Sony Michel FD 6800 DK 5800 Opponent SEAProj Points FD - 14.24 DK - 15.35 The Rams have been rocked by Covid this week and as of this writing had placed 25 players into the protocols. But it looks like Sony Michel will be able to suit up and should have an every-down role for LA. It doesn’t appear that Darrell Henderson is going to be able to clear protocols to play in this one. Last week, in a similar situation, Michel played 100% of the Rams’ snaps and carried the ball...

Quarterback Derek Carr FD 7500 DK 6000 Opponent CLE Proj Points FD - 1.56 DK - 1.56 By default, Derek Carr is our top quarterback on Saturday. Baker Mayfield tested positive for Covid, Carson Wentz faces the #2 overall defense in New England, and Mac Jones is coming off a two-attempt performance and is averaging just 20 attempts per game over his last five. Volume has not been an issue for Carr who is averaging 40.1 attempts over his last three games and has been accurate, as well, completing 70% of those passes. The matchup doesn't jump off the page as the Browns have allowed the 7th fewest passing yards but do rank 20th in DVOA against the pass. Making the matchup more appealing this week is the fact the Browns are not only dealing with injuries but also a C-19 breakout which has both starting safeties and two of their top three corners questionable. Fire up Carr in all formats. Mac Jones FD 7000 DK 5200 Opponent IND Proj Points FD - 13.72 DK - 14.25 There is much less safety with this pick as Jones is coming off an almost unbelievable three-pass-attempt performance against Buffalo. While that is likely a one-off due to the wind and heavy run gameplan, Jones has still been inconsistent in his rookie season but what I do like is the potential 4-5x upside and his price which allows you to load up at RB/WR/TE. The matchup is also very intriguing as the Colts rank Top 5 in run defense but 17th in DVOA against the pass. It is very risky as the floor is very low but for GPP formats, I am on board considering the upside and ability to spend up elsewhere. Running Back Jonathan Taylor FD 10200 DK 9000 Opponent NE Proj Points FD - 22.01 DK - 23.42 With Derrick Henry out with injury, the often underrated Jonathan Taylor has quickly taken on the "best running back in football" tag, and for good reason. He has rushed for 100 or more yards in seven of...
