FLEX: Kareem Hunt $7,000

When saving over a $1,000 on both the tight end and wide receiver 3 positions, that gives you the chance to go big again at the running back position. Kareem Hunt is the offense in Cleveland. Baker Mayfield has struggled, but Hunt has done a masterful job replacing the injury Nick Chubb. Even when he was splitting carries with Chubb, he’s never had less than double digits on the fantasy scoreboard.

Last week, Miles Sanders gave Cleveland the blueprint into how to beat the Steelers front. Sanders only needed 11 carries to get 80 yards and two touchdowns in the Steel City. Hunt can do even better than that with a bigger workload.

The Steelers secondary is going to give Kevin Stefanski pause into going into this matchup with a pass-heavy gameplan. Of course, the Steelers probably know that, but Hunt has been proven to be matchup proof in the past. He can make big runs against good defenses.

While Chubb is out with injury, Hunt is a good play just about every week. The Steelers defense is good, but even if they do well against Mayfield, Hunt will get his eventually. The Browns might even get some turnovers that put the Browns in scoring range. This could help Hunt get an easy touchdown.
