5. Raheem Mostert (SF)

Game: Buffalo Bills at San Francisco 49ers (Monday, 12/7, 8:15 pm EST)

Did you know that Mostert was back? He is, but a quiet outing beset him vs. the Rams in Week 12.

However, that does not mean he’ll be silenced for long. Mostert will be in high demand against the Bills as every little bit of offense will be valued. There are injuries all over San Francisco’s roster. Every yard matters.

The Bills give up 17.6 PPR points per game to tailbacks. That is the ninth-worst leaguewide. Unlike 2018 and 2019, the Bills offense is the primary source of prosperity in 2020. In the last several years, it was the inverse. Buffalo’s defense was marvelous. It has taken a step back this season.

Consider Mostert an RB2. If you cannot land Mostert, give Jeff Wilson a look.

6. Zack Moss (BUF)

Game: Buffalo Bills at San Francisco 49ers (Monday, 12/7, 8:15 pm EST)

Steadily, Moss is usurping teammate Devin Singletary for the touch-load in Buffalo. It is not a drastic takeover, but it should be considered noteworthy for fantasy’s sake. Perhaps it can be classified as even split for touches.

The 49ers defense certainly is not a porous group. But Buffalo has found ways to score points. Start Moss in, what should be, an excellent Monday Night affair.

7. Frank Gore (NYJ)

Game: Las Vegas Raiders at New York Jets (Sunday, 12/6, 1:00 pm EST)

On a historically lousy football team, Gore is getting his carries. He’s consistently tabulating about 15 rushing attempts per game and is the type of back that will earn your fantasy team about 10-12 points per week. For sleepers, that’s not terrible.
