Jay Ajayi RB MIA NYJ START
This is a matchup where defense and running games will dominate. Ajayi figures to be in for enough usage if he can deliver he should be startable.

Bilal Powell RB NYJ MIA START
Same as with Ajayi, with both backup QBs lacing it up and with Forte out for the Jets, look for Powell to play often and receive enough volume to put in strong RB2 numbers.

Ty Montgomery RB/WR GNB CHI START
With Starks out, Montgomery should resume his WR out of the backfield role. He should get 6-8 targets and possibly 40 yards rushing to give him a nice floor and the upside of a high end RB2. Start him with confidence.

Tyrod Taylor QB BUF CLE START
Taylor sees his weapons return and gets Cleveland's defense this week. Barring weather issues that disrupt the game, this should be a nice matchup for a borderline fantasy player.

Kenneth Dixon RB BAL PHI START
Dixon looks like one of the fresh legged runners that could lead teams to championships this year providing Baltimore gives him a big enough share of the action. They did last week, The danger here could be Baltimore sitting on a lead and not utilizing Dixon's pass catching prowess. But I'd roll with hiim for the upside.

Alshon Jeffery WR CHI GNB SIT
Jeffery returns from suspension. All things point to him needing to be a big focus of the offense, but with a backup QB who hasn't worked much with Jeffery and Jeffery not playing for 4 weeks, I'd prefer to find other options.

Ladarius Green TE PIT CIN START
Green gets one of the easier TE matchups this week and still likely to be the 2nd target (outside of Bell) in this offense. For a position that everyone's struggling at, Green should put up starting numbers.

Kyle Rudolph TE MIN IND START
Indy has been another team that has given up a lot of points to tight ends this year. Rudolph should prove to be a safe play.
