Hey everyone, welcome to week 6! We’ve got some thrilling game totals that suggest a lot of action, but that also means you’ll be competing with a bunch of others for that top spot. Let’s check out some lesser-owned picks that could really shake things up and help us snag a Milly!

The Eagles are fresh off a bye week and are getting A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith back in action. Cleveland’s defense isn’t what it used to be, and with the Eagles well-rested, I expect them to really light it up in this matchup. The tush push is still working well even without Kelce, and Hurts loves to get in on the scoring action. I think pairing him with Brown and Barkley is the way to go for this game.

Murray hasn’t been at his best lately, but he’s got a solid chance to shine against the Packers’ pass defense, which has been giving up points. I can see Kyler making a lot of plays on the run to buy time for his receivers. The run game isn’t expected to do much against the Packers, so it’s clear they’ll rely on Kyler’s mobility and the passing game to pull off a win. I’m planning to pair Murray with Marvin Harrison Jr. for this matchup.

Dak can be a real threat when he has the time to let plays develop downfield, and the Lions haven’t exactly been stellar at pressuring quarterbacks. With a high implied game total of 52, this matchup could easily turn into a shootout, leading to plenty of fantasy points. I’ve got a hunch that CeeDee Lamb is set for a big performance, so I’m planning to stack Dak and Lamb together.

This week, there are some really budget-friendly QBs available, including rookie quarterback Spencer Rattler and starter Will Levis. I’m leaning towards Rattler for my other options since $4k is just too good to pass up, but Levis is the starter and has a solid matchup against Indy. While everyone is jumping on Pollard, a different approach would be to go for Levis and pair him with a receiver. I’m thinking of stacking him with Calvin Ridley, who tends to shine against cover 3 defenses and should have a great game against Indy.

Saquon Barkley is back from a bye week and ready to roll! Plus, the Browns’ run defense is a mess! I’m all in on Barkley, while everyone else is focused on Bijan Robinson, Tony Pollard, and Chuba Hubbard.

Henry is a reliable player in any matchup and this time he’s facing the Commanders, who struggle against the run. He’s set to get plenty of carries and has scored at least once in every game this season. I’m totally fine with shelling out for the King in this situation.

I’m a big fan of Ekeler in this matchup. Daniels isn’t really pushing the ball deep against opposing pass defenses; he’s sticking to those short, quick throws. That’s great news for Ekeler since he’ll get plenty of targets. Running the ball isn’t the best strategy against Baltimore, so using Ekeler for those short passes is the way to play it.

White will likely miss this Sunday, which means we can add Irving to the lineup, and he’s currently projected to be under 3%. The Saints struggle against the run, so this is Bucky’s chance to really stand out. He’s a solid, budget-friendly RB choice to help even out the salary cap.

Lamb has faced a lot of double coverage this season, which has kept his stats lower than we’d like. The silver lining for him and the Cowboys offense is that the Lions don’t often double-team, so Lamb might just have a huge game ahead.

Philly just had a bye week, and Brown is back from his injury, plus Smith is back too, so the whole crew is back together. Hurts will need to release the ball fast against the Browns, though. Brown has been getting the most targets on those quick throws, which means he should rack up a bunch of completions.

As I mentioned in the Murray section earlier, the Green Bay Pass defense has been targeted through the air, giving the Cardinals a solid shot at winning. While they usually lean towards a run-heavy offense, they might struggle to get the ground game going against the Packers. I think the Packers will pay more attention to McBride, which could create some opportunities for Harrison.

Ridley is getting almost twice the opportunities as Hopkins, and his air yard share is more than double too. He really excels against cover 3 defenses, so he’s set to have a big game if Levis can deliver the passes. I’m all in on this pick since a lot of folks will be focused on Tony Pollard.

Ferguson has been pretty solid lately, averaging 6 catches and 71 yards per game over the last three outings. Alongside Lamb, he’s set to play a key role in the offense against Detroit this week.

Kraft is really stepping up in the Packers’ offense lately, especially with Musgraves sidelined. I think that’s going to stay the same. I’m a fan of using Kraft since he’s not as popular as some of the other receivers and has been putting up solid numbers with an average of 4 catches, 55 yards, and a touchdown over the last three games.

Freiermuth is an excellent route runner and gets plenty of looks in the splash zone. He’s a dependable option for Fields and will play a crucial role in advancing the ball against the Raiders.

Lattimore is on Evans, which means Godwin and Otton are likely to get more looks in this game. Otton hasn’t been stellar this season, but he’s shown he can have some big performances, and this could be one of those moments.

The Cleveland offense is struggling, and the Eagles’ defense is well-rested. I’m definitely leaning towards them as my top spend-up this week.

The Chargers have a solid defense that holds up well against both the run and the pass. Bo Nix hasn’t been performing at his best, and Denver won’t be able to rely on their running game. It looks like a struggling offense going up against a strong defense, so I believe the defense will come out on top.

The Titans have been pretty strong when it comes to defending against the pass, which isn’t great news for Richardson if he plays. He’s been having some issues with his accuracy, and on top of that, the Titans are also tough against the run. It looks like the Colts are in for a tough challenge in this game.

This game is shaping up to be pretty exciting since Rattler is stepping in as the starting QB for the Saints with Carr sidelined. The Saints’ defense has been solid and has had some standout moments this season. Carr had a few strong performances but has been a bit inconsistent lately, so the rookie QB might inject some fresh energy into the team, and we could witness some intense defensive action.
