Running Back: Jonathan Taylor – Indianapolis Colts (DraftKings price $7,000)

Only Josh Jacobs is priced higher than Taylor this week and the cost for the Colts starter may seem rich after he averaged just 3.9 yards per carry on 26 attempts in Indianapolis’ win over the Minnesota Vikings last week. However, his price is less about his efficiency as a runner and more about the matchup with a dismal New York Jets squad that gave up several huge plays on the ground in their loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Week 2. Look for Taylor to gash the Jets in the same way Raheem Mostert and Jerick McKinnon did and reward players willing to spend up for his services.

Wide Receiver: CeeDee Lamb – Dallas Cowboys (DraftKings price $5,400)

Spending up at quarterback and running back means spending down at wide receiver. However, you do not have sacrifice quality at wideout despite the lower price point, with Cowboys rookie Lamb looking a player primed to explode in the Dallas offense. He had nine targets last week in a phenomenal comeback against the Atlanta Falcons as he put up his first 100-yard game as a pro. Against a porous Seattle pass defense, Lamb is in an excellent spot to reach three figures again in a game that figures to be a shootout.
