Quarterback

Paxton Lynch
Tulsa is a heaping pile of defensive garbage so I think Paxton Lynch will have his way, but his salary is somewhat restrictive and especially on Draftkings. If you are finding his salary difficult to fit you can look at Taylor Lamb, but even at a lower tag he presents a little more risk compared to Lynch. Memphis is projected for the highest team total and Lynch touches the ball more than anyone. The game being played in Tulsa should allow Tulsa to put some points on the board themselves. I probably shift to Lamb on Draftkings and or if I am looking for more upside, but your odds on cash play is Lynch.

Running Back

Jahad Thomas
Outside of Paxton Lynch I’m not sure there is a safer way to get your money in than with Thomas. Temple could stumble a little in this one as East Carolina poses a tough road challenge under the Thursday night lights. That being said, Temple’s defense should keep this one close if the offense does sputter and either way Thomas should get a hefty workload. He is pricey for sure and this game could be a relatively low scoring affair, but the other backs have similar concerns without the locked in volume. Temple is 6-0 on the back of Thomas and will look to utilize their prized back win, lose or draw.

Wide Receiver

Kenny Lawler
At first glance it looks as if Lawler is dependent on touchdowns and while that’s technically true don’t think his 8 scores in 6 games is a fluke. Jared Goff, Lawler’s quarterback, is arguably the most NFL ready quarterback in the nation which can make up for a fair amount of deficiencies in an offense or receiver. Lawler figures as a fringe NFL talent, but that’s good enough in college when paired with a guy like Goff. His role in the offense is secure and he is the lead dog for the Bears pass happy offense. He sort of struggled last week against Utah, but most do. UCLA won’t hand it over, but Cal should generate plenty of offense for Lawler to hit his middling salary.

Joshua Atkinson
Atkinson quickly and quietly became Tulsa’s top option on the outside. Tulsa lost their best receiver, Keevan Lucas, a couple weeks ago. I, like most, projected Keyarris Garrett to pick up the slack considering he was already leading Tulsa in receptions and yards. Atkinson did not play week one, but has been aces ever since. He has surpassed 100 yards receiving in each game he has played this season along with 2 scores. Given how his role has evolved over the course of the year and the loss of Lucas you could make an argument he is running cold in the touchdown department. Over the last 3 weeks Atkinson, not Garrett, has been Tulsa’s best and most productive receiver. Both Tulsa receivers should have ample opportunity in this one, but JA has been the more consistent player.

Tight End

Alan Cross
Your tight end options are awful and it’s ugly cousin. Cross has been a favorite red zone target of Paxton Lynch the past couple years. Memphis has the highest projected team points. I’m not sure I would be willing to spend at the position, but Cross hits the sweet spot if you insist.
