Wide Receivers

High-Cost Option: Kelvin Benjamin ($8,100)

If looking for a stud wide receiver to anchor your lineup (who isn't $10,000 like Antonio Brown), then Kelvin Benjamin could be a viable option this week. Benjamin has a fantastic ceiling in this projected high-scoring game, with the Saints' secondary giving up points with little resistance. The Saints are giving up the third-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers following some big early-season performances from Dontrelle Inman (28 points), Amari Cooper (24.7 points), and Sterling Shepard (22.7 points). Outside of Week 3's blanketing by the Minnesota Vikings, Benjamin has averaged 9.3 targets and 19.7 points per game on DraftKings. If Carolina is to reach the 27.75 points they are currently projected for, Benjamin will likely be a big reason for how they get there.

Mid-Cost Option: Doug Baldwin ($6,500)

There are a ton of great options this week in the $6,000 to $7,000 range, but Doug Baldwin looks like he has the potential to be one with the highest floor. Running 81 percent of his routes from the slot, per ProFootballFocus, Baldwin should spend most of his day lined up against Brian Poole and away from Desmond Trufant's lock-down coverage. Atlanta has given up seven receiving touchdowns to receivers on the year (fourth-most) and rank bottom-10 in fantasy points allowed to the position. Baldwin leads Seattle receivers with a 22.5 percent target market share while averaging 7.8 targets per game. Baldwin has been a fantastic receiver at home nearly doubling his Target NEP -- 67.08 at home versus 32.24 on the road -- as pointed out by Jim Sannes.

Low-Cost Option: Tavon Austin ($3,900)

If you're ready to embrace the tilt of Week 6, you can do so prior to kickoffs by adding Tavon Austin to your lineups. If paying up for the stud running backs this week, we're going to have to save money somewhere. Austin is currently averaging nine targets per game and is one of just a handful of receivers eclipsing a 30-percent target market share. Austin gets a terrific matchup against Quandre Diggs this week, who is currently PFF's 106th-ranked cornerback out of the 116 that qualify. Diggs has struggled covering the middle of the field, especially with DeAndre Levy and Tavon Wilson out, and opposing slot receivers have been able to capitalize so far in 2016. Austin presents a wide range of outcomes, but he has a fantastic ceiling in a great matchup with both rushing and return upside in his favor.

Other Options: Antonio Brown ($10,000), Allen Robinson ($7,800), Jeremy Maclin ($6,300), Will Fuller ($5,900), Sammie Coates ($4,700), John Brown ($4,500), Cameron Meredith ($4,100)
