FLEX: Mike Evans, WR, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

vs. San Francisco 49ers, Sunday 1:00pm

Fanduel Price: $7,900

The earlier savings I grabbed at the running back position allowed me to go big here at the FLEX. Mike Evans has been Jameis Winston’s top target when both are in the lineup. Winston has just regained his starting job for this week’s game against the San Francisco 49ers.

Despite the presence of Richard Sherman, I’m betting that Evans has a big game. The 49ers are allowing 257 passing yards per game and now face an explosive passing attack.

Evans is one of those players who is always a threat to score a touchdown. He’s both a big play threat and someone who excels in the red zone.

Backup Option: James Connor, RB, Pittsburgh Steelers

@ Denver Broncos, Sunday 4:24

Fanduel Price: $7,900

James Connor has really had a tremendous season. His success made one of the best NFL running backs, Le’Veon Bell, expendable. The Steelers have operated like Bell was still in the lineup and Connor has responded.

This week the Steelers will look to continue feeding the ball to Connor. The Denver Broncos have one of the worst run defenses in the league and will struggle to slow down the Steelers ground attack.
