Todd Gurley, RB, Los Angeles Rams

FanDuel Price: $8,500
Projected Points: 17.1

With neither Le'Veon Bell nor Alvin Kamara on this week's main slate, we are left without a couple of top running back options. That just makes Todd Gurley further stand out, though.

He has seen his already heavy usage increase over the past three weeks, as his 77.27% carry percentage leads the position over that span. So, even with a matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles, whose stout run defense is giving up the fewest FanDuel points per game to opposing RB1s of any team, his impressive workload gives him a great opportunity to rack up FanDuel points. That's especially the case with the Los Angeles Rams having the sixth-highest implied total (25.25 points) of any team this week and their top wide receiver, Robert Woods, likely still sidelined.

Players with Gurley's ability and opportunity don't always need a plus matchup in order to be successful. We're not going to let the Eagles' history scare us away from the one of our highest-projected players.
