Tight End

Ed Dickson $3,000

Dickson will be looking to rebound in a big way this week after failing to haul in a catch last week.  Since Greg Olsen has been out Dickson has been a much more significant part of the Panthers offense.  That role could expand more this week as the Dolphins are ranked 29th in the league against opposing tight ends.  Cam Newton has lost Kelvin Benjamin, and it hurt the Panthers as they only totaled 137 yards in the air last week.  Cam won’t have that bad of a game again, and Dickson could be the big benefactor in the offensive gameplan.  Watch for him to have his second 100-yard game and score his first touchdown of the year.

Evan Engram $6,200

Injuries to the Giants have opened the door for the emergence of Engram, and he has so far exceeded expectations.  He has had four or more receptions in every game this year but one.  Evan is also on a touchdown streak as he has caught a score in each of the last three weeks.  Eli could be looking to air it out this week as I mentioned earlier and Engram could be the best option on most plays.  Watch for Engram to top the 100-yard mark for the first time this season and continue his streak and catch a touchdown for a fourth straight week.

D/ST

Pittsburgh Steelers $3,700

The Steelers will be well rested coming off their bye week, and the Colts will have a hard time getting anything against this stingy defense.  The Steelers have 26 sacks on the year to along with seven interceptions in eight games.  While only putting up double-digit points twice the year the Steelers have been a top 10 defense regarding fantasy performance.  They have just had 119 points total put up against them which is second in the league.  Watch for them to terrorize Jacoby Brissett as they record at least four sacks and a pair of interceptions while holding the Colts to 17 or fewer points.

Detroit Lions $3,800

While the offense of the Lions gets top billing, it’s the defense that has been performing all season long to a higher standard.  The Lions are a top 10 defense and have five double-digit fantasy performance games to prove it.  This week they get the Cleveland Browns who are winless and have no real playmakers to speak of to challenge the Lions.  Detroit could be in for a big day no matter who starts at quarterback for the Browns.  Watch for them to get five or more sacks and at least a pair of interceptions while holding the Browns under 20 points.

Best of luck this week to all you DFS players! Keep rollin’ in that dough! That way, at least if the Buccaneers give us yet another painful loss, you’ll be able to find comfort in the fact that you’re at least bringing in some money this weekend.
