Cash Games
Quarterbacks
| Rank | Player | Opponent | Salary |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Brandon Allen | at Packers | $4,000 |
| 2 | Tommy Devito | vs Buccaneers | $4,000 |
This is a unique week where there's a clear-cut top six quarterbacks and they're all tournament-eligible plays. Scroll down to the tournament section for the rest of the quarterbacks.
Brandon Allen is priced at $4,000, allowing us to roster three stud running backs, which is what we should be looking to do every week in cash. Operating Kyle Shanahan's offense and surrounded by Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel Sr., Jauan Jennings, and George Kittle, Allen should produce enough points per dollar.
Tommy Devito is not a comfortable, stable cash play. However, he's priced at just $4,000 and is in a good spot at home against a Buccaneers defense that only ranks 28th in EPA/Play Allowed and 27th in Dropback EPA Allowed. DeVito allows for salary flexibility to pay up for three stud running backs, which is what we should be looking to do every week in cash.
Running Backs
| Rank | Player | Opponent | Salary |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Joe Mixon | vs Titans | $8,000 |
| 2 | Brian Robinson Jr | vs Cowboys | $5,600 |
| 3 | David Montgomery | at Colts | $6,700 |
| 4 | Aaron Jones | at Bears | $6,400 |
| 5 | Bucky Irving | at Giants | $5,300 |
| 6 | Tyrone Tracy Jr. | vs Buccaneers | $6,000 |
Joe Mixon leads the NFL in opportunities per game (24.9), ranks second in total yards per game (120.9), and third in total touchdowns (11). The Texans are 8.5-point home favorites.
Brian Robinson Jr has seven touchdowns in eight games this season. The Commanders are 10.5-point home favorites, and Robinson gets an awful Cowboys defense that ranks 30th in EPA/Play Allowed and 29th in Dropback EPA Allowed.
David Montgomery ranks sixth in total touchdowns (10) and has scored in eight of ten contests this season. The Lions are 7.5-point favorites.
Aaron Jones ranks 15th in opportunities per game (19) and 12th in total yards per game (95.4). Jones is a dual-threat who gets a Bears defense that struggles to defend the run as they rank 30th in Rush EPA Allowed.
Bucky Irving's averages over his past three games: 14 opportunities and 68.3 total yards. Both of these are higher than Rachaad White's averages. Irving is operating as Tamp Bay's lead rusher, the Buccaneers are 5.5-point favorites, and the matchup is solid against a Giants defense that ranks 20th in EPA/Play Allowed and 22nd in Rush EPA Allowed.
Tyrone Tracy Jr.'s averages over his past three games: 16.7 opportunities and 107.7 total yards (would rank fifth-most over the full season). Tracy is a supremely talented rookie and gets a Tampa Bay defense that ranks 28th in EPA/Play Allowed and 17th in Rush EPA Allowed.
