Kene Nwangwu-RB-Vikings

Dalvin Cook is expected to miss one to two games, so Alexander Mattison will get the start. But expect Kene Nwangwu to get some carries and targets. Last week after Cook dislocated his shoulder, Nwangwu only recorded one carry for seven yards, but he had a kick return for a 99-yard touchdown. The Vikings face the Lions in week 13, whose defense has given up the 4th most fantasy points to running backs this year. If anything happens to Mattison, Nwangwu could see a much larger role in the offense.

 

Dontrell Hilliard-RB-Titans

Of all the Tennessee Titan running backs, few to zero fantasy managers expected Dontrell Hilliard to have the biggest impact. But last week against the Patriots, he had 12 carries for 131 yards and one touchdown. In week 11 against the Texans, he carried the ball seven times for 35 yards and added eight receptions for 47 yards. Even though the Titans are one bye this week, he's still worth rostering until Derrick Henry comes back. Get him today for a buck.

 

Rondale Moore- WR- Cardinals

Depending on DeAndre Hopkins' availability, Rondale Moore might be a considerable option off the waiver wire in week 13. He should be owned in all dynasty and keeper leagues. In week 11 against the Seahawks, he had 11 targets, 11 receptions and 51 yards receiving. He is going to be a reception magnet in the future, and he could see more opportunities this year once Kyler Murray returns to action. Moore is worth picking up and stashing on your bench for the rest of the year.

 

Jared Goff-QB-Lions

If you're desperate for a quarterback in week 13, Jared Goff has a good matchup against a Vikings defense that has allowed the 9th most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. Last Thursday against the Bears, he threw for 21 completions of 25 pass attempts, 171 yards and two touchdowns. If D'Andre Swift can suit up, Goff will have an explosive check-down option that could rack up fantasy points after the catch. Goff isn't someone to keep on your roster past week 13. If you need a quarterback, he might be your guy.

 

Jack Doyle- TE- Colts

Colts' tight end Jack Doyle is starting to see consistent targets in the offense. Last week against the Buccaneers, he had seven targets, six receptions, 81 yards and a touchdown. He has at least five targets in the last three games. The Colts face the Texans on Sunday, whose defense has given up the 6th most fantasy points to tight ends this season. If you need a tight end in week 13, Doyle might be worth the dollar. Pick him up and start him this week.

 

Noah Brown- WR- Cowboys

The Cowboys might be dealing with some wide receiver depth issues this week when the face the Saints. Amari Cooper might be activated Thursday, but he is still recovering from Covid 19. Cedrick Wilson missed practice on Tuesday with an ankle injury. This could lead to Noah Brown getting the third wide receiver spot. Last week against the Raiders, Brown had nine targets, six receptions and 53 yards receiving. New Orleans' defense has given up the 7th most fantasy points to wide receivers this year. If both Cooper and Wilson miss Thursday night's game, Brown could be flyer to start in your lineup. He will be available for a dollar.
