Quarterbacks
| Rank | Player | Opponent | Salary |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Lamar Jackson | at Browns | $8,000 |
| 2 | Jordan Love | at Jaguars | $7,100 |
| 3 | Caleb Williams | at Commanders | $6,000 |
| 4 | Jared Goff | vs Titans | $6,600 |
Lamar Jackson ranks first at the quarterback position in DraftKings points per game (27.6), ninth in passing yards per game (258.6), fifth in pass touchdowns per game (2.1), and leads a Ravens offense that ranks first in EPA/Play. He has a favorable matchup against a Browns defense that ranks 22nd in EPA/Play Allowed and 19th in Dropback EPA Allowed.
Jordan Love ranks first in passing yards per game (270.2), first in pass touchdowns per game (3), and leads a Packers offense that ranks eighth in EPA/Play. Love projects to go off against one of the worst defenses in the NFL. The Jaguars defense ranks 30th in both EPA/Play Allowed and Dropback EPA Allowed.
Caleb Williams' passing stat lines in his last two games before Chicago's Week 7 bye: 304 yards and 2 touchdowns and 226 yards and 4 touchdowns. Williams is priced at just $6,000 and gets a good matchup against a Commanders defense that only ranks 26th in EPA/Play Allowed and 27th in Dropback EPA Allowed.
Jared Goff continues to dominate while leading a Lions offense that ranks fifth in EPA/Play. Goff ranks second in passing yards per game (268.3), and ninth in pass touchdowns per game (1.7). Goff is at home against an average Titans defense that ranks 16th in Dropback EPA Allowed.
Running Backs
| Rank | Player | Opponent | Salary |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Derrick Henry | at Browns | $8,100 |
| 2 | Saquon Barkley | at Bengals | $8,300 |
| 3 | Breece Hall | at Patriots | $7,300 |
| 4 | Bijan Robinson | at Buccaneers | $7,200 |
| 5 | Joe Mixon | vs Colts | $7,700 |
| 6 | Josh Jacobs | at Jaguars | $6,600 |
| 7 | Ken Walker III | vs Bills | $7,800 |
| 8 | Kareem Hunt | at Raiders | $6,300 |
Derrick Henry ranks eighth in opportunities per game (20.4), first in total yards per game (133.6), and first in total touchdowns (10). The Ravens are ten-point favorites and Henry gets a Browns defense that ranks 22nd in EPA/Play Allowed and 28th in Rush EPA Allowed.
Saquon Barkley ranks fifth in opportunities per game (21.3), second in total yards per game (126.8), and fourth in total touchdowns (6). He's playing in a favorable fantasy game environment with a 47.5 Over/Under against a Bengals defense that only ranks 22nd in EPA/Play Allowed and 27th in Rush EPA Allowed.
Breece Hall's opportunities in two games with new offensive coordinator Todd Downing: 24 and 21. His 19.7 opportunities per game already ranks 12th in the NFL and his 93.6 total yards per game ranks 15th. The Jets are seven-point favorites and Hall gets a vulnerable Patriots defense that ranks 28th in EPA/Play Allowed and 19th in Rush EPA Allowed.
The Falcons are 2.5-point favorites against the banged-up Buccaneers and Bijan Robinson has a solid matchup on tap against a Buccaneers defense that ranks 20th in EPA/Play Allowed and 16th in Rush EPA Allowed. Robinson ranks 15th in opportunities per game (18.7) and 11th in total yards per game (97.7).
Joe Mixon has been dominant when healthy this year. He ranks second in opportunities per game (22.8) and third in total yards per game (121). The Colts have been solid against the run this season but the Texans are six-point home favorites.
The Packers are 4.5-point favorites against a struggling Jaguars team so this projects as a favorable rushing game script for Josh Jacobs. He ranks tenth in opportunities per game (19.9) and 14th in total yards per game (93.9). Jacksonville has been strong against the run but overall, their defense ranks 30th in EPA/Play Allowed.
Ken Walker III's season-long per-game statistics surprisingly don't stand out. But that won't stop me from recommending one of the most talented running backs in the NFL. Walker has seen eight targets in two of his five healthy games this year and has been a constant in the passing game unlink in seasons past. Walker is at home in a favorable fantasy game environment against a Bills defense that ranks middle of the pack (17th) in EPA/Play Allowed.
Kareem Hunt, surprisingly, is priced at just $6,300. He literally leads the NFL in opportunities per game (23) and ranks 12th in total yards per game (95). The Chiefs are ten-point favorites and Hunt gets a Raiders defense that only ranks 21st in Rush EPA Allowed.
