Kareem Hunt, RB, Kansas City Chiefs

DraftKings Price: $8,200
Projected Points: 19.5

The Kansas City Chiefs offense is firing on all cylinders. They have scored at least 20 points in every single game this season and topped off at 42 points on two separate occasions. In Week 6, they are hosting the visiting Pittsburgh Steelers and are favored by 4.50 points and have an implied team total of 25.00 points.

Alex Smith is playing at an MVP level and Kareem Hunt is an early frontrunner for Rookie of the Year honors. Hunt has 97 carries (fifth most in the NFL), 609 rushing yards (leading the league), and 6 total touchdowns (second most). He has evaded the most tackles in the NFL (42), has the most breakaway runs (9), and the most yards created (233). He's elite at every phase of the game and getting heavy usage.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have allowed 15.6 PPG on DraftKings to opposing running backs, and our models have Hunt projected to score 19.5 points.

Due to his workload, talent, opportunity, and matchup, Hunt is worth every penny on DraftKings and is someone to anchor your lineup with.
