Dak Prescott, QB, Dallas Cowboys

FanDuel Price: $8,200
Projected Points: 20.9

Through seven games, Dak Prescott is averaging the fourth-most FanDuel points per game of any player. And with Ezekiel Elliott suspended, more of the Dallas Cowboys' offensive load will surely lie on Prescott's shoulders.

He has already rushed at least three times in each game this season, giving him a solid boost to his floor. We expect that load to increase in Week 9, with our models projecting him for a season-high 5.58 rushing attempts.

Besides last week when the Cowboys relied on a heavy-rushing attack due to the rainy conditions, Prescott has recorded more than 17 FanDuel points in every game this season. And with four touchdowns in each of the two games prior to Week 8, he has also shown off a nice ceiling.

The Cowboys have the third-highest implied total (26.00 points) against the Kansas City Chiefs, who are giving up the eighth-most FanDuel points per game to opposing QB1s. Don't let last week's rainy game scare you away from Prescott in this great situation.
