Kareem Hunt, RB, Kansas City Chiefs

FanDuel Price: $9,300
Projected Points: 17.8

Kareem Hunt is averaging a whopping 155 yards from scrimmage per game this season. Not only does that lead the league, his 775 total yards from scrimmage is the third-most ever by a rookie in his first five games.

Hunt has turned that production into six touchdowns, and his average of 23.9 FanDuel points per game leads all players. Yes, that includes quarterbacks too.

He's proven that he doesn't need a plus-matchup to put up big numbers, as two of his games have been against teams that rank among the toughest third of the league in terms of FanDuel points per game allowed to opposing running backs.

This week, Hunt's up against the Pittsburgh Steelers, who are giving up the fifth-most FanDuel points per game to opposing running backs. In Week 5, Leonard Fournette steamrolled right through them for a league-high 181 rushing yards, and we expect Hunt to have another big game of his own on Sunday.
