Jordan Mason, RB, 49ers (at Seahawks)- 22 Points
120 Rushing Yards, 1 Catch, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
The Seahawks are poor versus the run.
-
Saquon Barkley, RB, Eagles (vs. Browns)- 22 Points
100 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
It’s tough to run on the Browns, but Saquon Barkley can beat any matchup.
-
Derrick Henry, RB, Ravens (vs. Redskins)- 21 Points
110 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
The Redskins are better against the run than the pass, but Derrick Henry should still find the end zone once again.
-
Josh Jacobs, RB, Packers (vs. Cardinals)- 20 Points
100 Rushing Yards, 1 Catch, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
The Cardinals are incredibly weak to the run.
-

90 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 40 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
James Conner just had a solid performance against the 49ers.

90 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
The Cowboys are far weaker to the run than the pass.
-
Breece Hall, RB, Jets (vs. Bills)- 17 Points

Breece Hall figures to rebound against a weaker run defense.
-
James Conner, RB, Cardinals (at Packers)- 16 Points
70 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
James Conner is looking great, and the Packers can be beaten on the ground.
-
Bijan Robinson, RB, Falcons (at Panthers)- 16 Points
100 Rushing Yards, 5 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards.
Bijan Robinson will bounce back against a defense that can’t defend anyone.
-
Tank Bigsby, RB, Jaguars (at Bears)- 16 Points
90 Rushing Yards, 1 Catch, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
Tank Bigsby has been impressive. The Bears are mediocre versus the run.
-
David Montgomery, RB, Lions (at Cowboys)- 16 Points
90 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
A great matchup for David Montgomery.
-
Tony Pollard, RB, Titans (vs. Colts)- 16 Points
80 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
Tank Bigsby just gashed the Colts on the ground.
-
Bucky Irving, RB, Bucs (at Saints)- 15 Points
80 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
Bucky Irving has been the better running back.
-

The Broncos don’t allow much on the ground.
-
Chuba Hubbard, RB, Panthers (vs. Falcons)- 15 Points
70 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
The Falcons have a weaker run defense that Chuba Hubbard should be able to exploit.

Alvin Kamara, RB, Saints (vs. Buccaneers)- 15 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 6 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
Tampa Bay is much stronger against the run than the pass.
-
D'Andre Swift, RB, Bears (vs. Jaguars)- 14 Points
40 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 40 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
Jacksonville is better against the run than the pass, so I’m expecting regression here.
-
Javonte Williams, RB, Broncos (vs. Chargers)- 14 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
Javonte Williams reclaimed his job in the second half in Week 4 and maintained it versus the Raiders. This is a difficult matchup though.
-
Tyrone Tracy, RB, Giants (vs. Bengals)- 14 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
Tyrone Tracy looked great. Even if Devin Singletary returns, Tracy may have earned a bigger workload.
-
Devin Singletary, RB, Giants (vs. Bengals)- 13 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
Status unknown.
-
Joe Mixon, RB, Texans (at Patriots)- 13 Points

-
Chase Brown, RB, Bengals (at Giants)- 11 Points
40 Rushing Yards, 1 Catch, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
It’s tough to run on the Giants.
-
James Cook, RB, Bills (at Jets)- 11 Points
80 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards.
The Jets struggle against the run, so James Cook could do well.
-
Roschon Johnson, RB, Bears (vs. Jaguars)- 10 Points
30 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
-
Jerome Ford, RB, Browns (at Eagles)- 10 Points
70 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards.
Jerome Ford doesn’t have good blocking because of all the offensive line injuries.
-
Trey Sermon, RB, Colts (at Titans)- 10 Points
30 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
Trey Sermon isn’t a great option, even if he starts.

The Steelers couldn’t even stop Rico Dowdle on Sunday night.
-
Najee Harris, RB, Steelers (at Raiders)- 9 Points
70 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
The Raiders run defense should have no issues containing the lethargic Najee Harris.
-
Austin Ekeler, RB, Redskins (at Ravens)- 7 Points
30 Rushing Yards, 5 Catches, 40 Receiving Yards.
Austin Ekeler won’t find much running room, but his receiving ability makes him a fine PPR flex option.
-
Jaylen Warren, RB, Steelers (at Raiders)- 7 Points
50 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
