We’ve got some value plays available this weekend, but nothing like last week when there were literally a dozen great options. There are plenty of running backs worth deciding between, but finding two, let alone three wide receivers you are comfortable with this week is a challenge. One of the best ways to sharpen your lineup is to look at what the general public will do since it tends to correlate well to players hitting value. Today, I’ll share our top five at each position. While it is by no means a guarantee, playing the chalk often works out well in cash games. These numbers may change between the publishing of this article and opening kickoff depending on injury report updates so make sure to keep that in consideration. Let’s get into it!

Quarterback
There are four exceptional options that stand out this weekend at the QB position and we expect nearly 80% of lineups to use one of them. The top three are all bunched up just above 20% projected ownership with Dak Prescott (@ IND) leading the pack. Ben Roethlisberger and Josh Allen are both right behind him with matchups against the Patriots and Lions. Finishing out the list are two extreme opposite players as Andrew Luck looks to air it out versus a tough Cowboys defense and Lamar Jackson is expected to pick up fantasy points with his legs against the easiest defense in the league.
