FanDuel NFL 2020: Best lineup for Week 3

FLEX Position: Darrell Henderson Jr. $5,800

The Los Angeles Rams seem to be on track to putting together a really good offense. After going all-in on Malcolm Brown in Week 1, Darrell Henderson Jr. was the man in the backfield in Week 2. The Rams will continue to instill a committee all season, but Henderson seems like the player that’s getting the bulk of the carries. Most importantly, he’s going to get the crucial carries that could lead to scores.

Cam Akers might have to miss some time after leaving the last game with an injury, and Henderson took over from there. He went for 121 total yards and a touchdown. He added two passes to his total, ending the week with 19 points. Getting this kind of production for less than $6,000 is how winning rosters are constructed.

Henderson has been praised early in the week by head coach Sean McVay. That’s usually a sign of confidence with the organization and leads to more carries. He did his best with the 12 carries he got last week, but this week against the Buffalo Bills he’ll need more. The Bills have been good against the run so far, but they’ve played the Dolphins and the Jets. Don’t let that impact your decision.

Other low-cost options: Jerick McKinnon $5,700, James White $5,300
