Le'Veon Bell, RB, Pittsburgh Steelers

FanDuel Price: $9,500
Projected Points: 22.2

Over the past five games, only one player in the NFL has received more than 44% of his team's opportunities.

That player is Le'Veon Bell, and he has received an incredible 55.21% of the Pittsburgh Steelers opportunities over that span. He has received 27 or more touches in each of those games, and Bell has racked up at least 130 total yards in all of them.

Much like Johnson, Bell has a tough matchup as Pittsburgh hosts the Baltimore Ravens, who are holding opposing running backs to the fourth-fewest FanDuel points per game. Again, much like Johnson, Bell's all-around ability trumps any matchup concerns.

There's also the fact that the Ravens have struggled stopping opposing running backs recently, giving up 75 or more yards to a running back in each of their past five games.

Pittsburgh is favored by five points, and Bell is averaging 22.8 FanDuel points per game as a favorite this season, lining him up for another big game in Week 16.
