Tevin Coleman, Atlanta Falcons, $7,300 

Stats: 398 rushing yards, 2 touchdowns, 205 receiving yards, 4 touchdowns (Flex worthy)

Tevin Coleman has proven he can be that guy for the Atlanta Falcons. With the absence of Devonta Freeman, Coleman has flourished. In Week 9 he rushed for 88 yards, adding 68 receiving yards and two touchdowns. It will be interesting to see how the Falcons approach their running game next season.

All that said, Coleman comes into Week 10 with legitimate flex appeal. His numbers haven’t been amazing but he has been able to get the job done more often than not. Coleman has scored four times in the past three games and will want to continue his hot streak against a Browns defense that allowed Kareem Hunt to go off for three touchdowns.

This Falcons offense is clicking on all cylinders at just the right time. Coleman comes in at a cheap price for his amount of volume in this offense. You won’t find a better deal this week at the running back position as James White is $500 more to place him in your lineups. Coleman should be played on FanDuel this week because the matchup is perfect for him to go off once again.

The Browns defense comes into Week 10 as the 30th-ranked group. Against the rush they are ranked 29th and 27th against the pass. It’s nothing to fear for Coleman and his production this Sunday. Coleman is clearly the lead back over Ito Smith and should be played as such. He will help fill out your lineups more effectively and help you stay under the cap.

Prediction: 85 rushing yards, 50 receiving yards, 2 total touchdowns
