- Tyler Allgeier $4,700 – The Falcons placed Cordarrelle Patterson on IR with a knee injury and that should open the door for Tyler Allgeier to have a bigger role. Last week he had over 100 total yards and he averaged 8.4 yards per carry. The Falcons have passed less and less each game and Patterson had 3 TDs in the first 4 weeks, along with 120-yard and 141-yard games. This is a tough matchup against the Browns this week but at $4.7k, I am willing to take some shots on Allgeier and we currently have him projected under 5% ownership.
- Zay Jones $4,100 – Zay Jones makes my list once again. He was out last week and he has a Q tag this week, so we will have to monitor his status. If he plays, I like him at $4.1k with a 25.25 team total. He is coming off a 24.5-point DraftKings game in week 3 where he caught 10 passes for 85 yards and a TD. Even with Zay Jones out last week, Marvin Jones Jr. put up a 0, so I expect Zay to take over that #2 role and he seems to have a connection with Trevor Lawrence. He is our top projected Fpts/$ play at WR this week and this is a game with multiple cheap pieces we can target.
- George Pickens $4,300 – The Steelers have the lowest team total of the week (16.25) against the Bills but they should be looking to pass a lot with their rookie Kenny Pickett if they are trailing throughout the game. I personally am high on Pickett but this is a tough matchup. George Pickens has seen his targets increase each week this season and he had 71 yards last week in the 2nd half after Pickett entered the game. He is only $4.3k this week and he is my favorite run-back piece for the Steelers if we are looking to stack the Bills offense with their 30.25-point team total.
- Tyler Higbee $4,300 – Tyler Higbee helped win me a King of the Beach seat last Monday with 10 receptions on 14 targets for 73 yards. He is averaging 9.5 targets per game this season and is clearly Matthew Stafford’s 2nd favorite guy to target. He is in play in all formats this week and he is our top projected offensive Fpts/$ play under $5k this week on the DFS ARMY Domination Station Optimizer.

- T.J. Hockenson $4,900 – T.J. Hockenson dominated last week with Amon-Ra St. Brown out with an ankle injury. Hockenson had 8 catches (12 targets) for 179 yards and 2 TDs, and a 2pt conversion. He scored 42.9 DraftKings points and had one of the best fantasy weeks we have ever seen from a TE. Lions games this season are averaging 71 points scored per game and we have seen some big fantasy performances from multiple players. I like Hockenson again this week where we are without the top TEs in the league, and I like him even more if St. Brown isn’t able to suit up again. Even after his big game last week we currently have him projected under 10% as the 5th highest-owned TE of the week.
