Player Pos Team Opponent Start / Sit Comment
Kyler Murray QB ARI ATL START Murray is in good position this week facing an Atlanta team that yielded 3 TDs passes to Mariota last week. Combine that possiblity with his rushing floor, he should be an easy top 12 QB this week.
Carlos Hyde RB HOU KC START I don't know if you can count this as a former team matchup, but Hyde goes up against the team that traded him before giving him a chance. He's emerged as Houston's primary runner and Indy dominated in the run game vs KC last week. This plus Chris Jones reported OUT for this week's matchup should make Hyde an intruiging start. He's averaging just under 10 ppg, but look for that to be his floor this week.
Malcolm Brown RB LAR SF START SF has a tough run defense so this comes with some risk, but Gurley is DOUBTFUL. IF he doesn't go, Malcolm Brown should have a reasonable chance to put in starters numbers.
Kenyan Drake RB MIA WAS START Drake gets a good matchup in week 6 actually being a home favorite. Now he might need to share the backfield with Mark Walton, but this should be a showcase game for Drake if Miami is shopping him.
Jordan Howard RB PHI MIN SIT Howard has emerged as the lead back in Philadelphia to the disappointment to many Miles Sanders owners. Minnesota can be a tough matchup, however. If Howard doesn't get a TD it's difficult for him to put in starters numbers.
Calvin Ridley WR ATL ARI START Ridley gets a fantastic matchup week 6 and he certainly has a high ceiling. Looking for a TD from Ridley and plus game for him this week.
Auden Tate WR CIN BAL SIT Tate has been a frequent target for Dalton the last three weeks with fantasy ppr totals of: 14.8, 9.0 and 11.6. That's roughly 12.5 ppg rate. However, Baltimore's defense is pretty stingy. Look for a tougher matchup this week.
