5 NFL FanDuel Studs to Target in Week 8

LeSean McCoy, RB, Buffalo Bills

FanDuel Price: $8,400
Projected Points: 18.9

We mentioned above that Bell's market share is nearly 5 percent higher than any other running back. The only player within that 5 percent gap? That's right, LeSean McCoy, whose 41.85 percent market share ranks second among all running backs. He has actually seen a higher percentage of his team's targets than Bell too, as his 23.64 percent target share is over 4 percent higher than any running back not named Christian McCaffrey.

Where McCoy does fall further down the list is his 57.59 percent carry percentage, which ranks 10th among all running backs. But that is a little misleading and certainly does not mean he has seen a light workload on the ground. That carry percentage is lowered by the fact that the Buffalo Bills are the third-most run-heavy team in the NFL, with Tyrod Taylor and Mike Tolbert also seeing a heavy workload on the ground. McCoy's average of 18.33 rushing attempts per game is actually the seventh-highest workload in the league.

That heavy usage will likely continue in Week 8 against the Oakland Raiders, who are allowing the most rushing attempts per game to opposing running backs this season, while giving up the eighth-most FanDuel points per game to opposing RB1s. That sets the table nicely for McCoy to have another big game on Sunday.
