This year's Heisman race is as wide open as the playoff picture. There are more than 10 one loss teams that have the opportunity to win the rest of their games and earn their way into the 4 team playoff. This year's Heisman could be very well be one of those players on a one loss team who will lead his team to the first ever 4 team college playoff.

5. Clint Trickett QB West Virginia

The Mountaineers do not control their own destiny and if they do not beat TCU this weekend you can take Trickett's name right off of this list. However, his QB play for the year cannot go unnoticed. 

5th in passing yards, 13th in total QBR, 10th in completion percentage, he has thrown for 300+ yards in 7/8 games. If Clint can lead his team to a victory against TCU and TCU goes on to beat Kansas State, West Virginia will be right in the hunt for the Big 12 championship and the Heisman discussion would heat up for Mr. Trickett.

4. Hau'oli Kikaha OLB Washington

The Huskies 5-3 record with a 1-3 record in the PAC 12 will not help his case. However, his 14.5 sacks in 8 games against top competition should earn some votes. He has 5.5 sacks in 2 games against Marcus Mariota and Jared Goff who hold the #1 and #8 passer ratings, respectively. 

The most sacks in a season since 2000 is held by Terrel Suggs who had 24 in 2002. He is on pace for 23.5 sacks this season. If he has 20+ sacks this season it would be a crime if he is not in the top 3 in Heisman voting. 

3. Duke Johnson RB Miami FL

Duke has 1,260 total yards to go along with 8 TDs. Miami has won their 3 out of their last 4 games thanks to Duke Johnson averaging 167 yards per game in those 4 matches. 

If Duke Johnson has a chance at the Heisman, the Miami Hurricanes must win their remaining 4 games while Duke Johnson continue to tear up the box score. He will win the trophy on November 15th when the Hurricanes play #2 Florida State down in South Florida. If Miami takes down Florida State behind a 200+ yard perfomance by Duke Johnson he should be considered as a candidate for the Heisman Trophy. 

2. Anu Solomon QB Arizona

2,400 Passing Yards 20 TDs 4 INT. Oregon is currently the first team out of the 4 team playoff but what about the only team that beat Oregon? Arizona controls their own destiny. They can win their remaining 5 games and meet Oregon in the Pac-12 championship game, assuming Oregon wins out as well. 

A 12-1 Arizona team with 2 wins against Oregon would be impossible to keep out of the 4 team playoff. Freshman QB Anu Solomon has been playing great football so far but will need to get better each week if they want their fairytale to contain a happy ending. 

1. Ameer Abdullah RB Nebraska

Ameer is making his way up the Heisman boards but is still not considered a favorite. He is leading the nation with 1,249 rushing yards and has 17 TDs. The one glaring game on his resume is a 24 carry 45 yard performance in their only loss against Michigan State. 

If both Michigan State and Nebraska win out they will face each other in the Big Ten championship game. Ameer could get his redemption and seal himself as a Heisman favorite with a great game and victory against the Spartans. A one loss Big Ten champion could aslo be in the playoff conversation if there are multiple 2 loss teams.

We're already a quarter of the way through the season and there are plenty of hot topics that have been produced. Did we write off Dallas too soon? Will the Saints defense dash their postseason hopes? Are the Patriots finished as an elite team? Who will emerge from a very competitive NFC West? Did I jinx my beloved Eagles by attending the one game they've lost this season?

There are more questions than answers at this point, but that's not why you're reading this. You're here because you've been changing your lineups frantically all week asking some anonymous higher power if Peyton Manning is really worth his price tag this week. Fortunately for you, I'm here to provide some clarity to your jumbled brain. So take some advice from Aaron Rodgers and "RELAX" so I can make you a future millionaire.

Note: Packers/Vikings players will obviously be exempt from these lists. Any big-name players that are absent from my lists (Peyton Manning, LeSean McCoy, etc.), are absent because there is only room for three players per list, their price is too high, or I predict their performances will be average and not indisputable enough to place them on either list. Do your homework on those players.

Finally, I won't be covering kickers. Like a fantasy football draft, a kicker should be your last concern as well as your cheapest.

QBs I Love

Philip Rivers (vs New York Jets) - Rivers is second among QBs in fantasy behind only Andrew Luck, and Keenan Allen hasn't even had a monster game yet. The Jets have allowed 1,015 yards, nine touchdowns and zero interceptions to opposing QBs through four games, one of them against Derek Carr. Rivers is the 14th most expensive QB, which is mind-boggling, at $7,000 this week. Don't overthink it, start Rivers.

Matt Ryan (at New York Giants) - I promise I'm not picking on you, New York. You just drew a bad hand this week. This game could very well turn into a shootout with the Giants offense coming to life last week. Unfortunately, shootouts tend to favor the owners of Matty Ice. Regardless of the outcome, I fully expect Ryan to shred the Giants secondary en route to a stellar fantasy day. Ryan is the 6th most expensive QB this week at $8,100.

Ben Roethlisberger (at Jacksonville Jaguars) - The Jags are allowing 344.2 passing yards per game this season, let that sink in. While you do, contemplate how many bombs Antonio Brown is going to be on the receiving end of on Sunday. Get it? Got it? Good. Big Ben is the 11th most expensive QB this week at $7,400.

QBs I Hate

Nick Foles (vs St. Louis Rams) - As an Eagles fan, this pains me. The Rams currently allow the fewest passing yards in the NFL and although Lane Johnson returns from a four-game suspension this week, the interior of the line is still mediocre at best. Robert Quinn against Jason Peters should be an intriging matchup, but I expect Foles to be under duress once again on Sunday. Foles is the 5th most expensive option at QB this week at $8,500.

Colin Kaepernick (vs Kansas City Chiefs) - Another QB having an unusual season, I witnessed Kaepernick's struggles live last week. Throwing behind receivers, happy feet in the pocket, Kaepernick doesn't look comfortbale at all. After dismantling the Patriots on Monday night, I expect more of the same from Kansas City defense, and Kaepernick as well. Kaepernick is the 7th most expensive QB this week at $7,800.

Andy Dalton (at New England Patriots) - Any time you start Andy Dalton, you're rolling the dice. This is not the week to roll the dice. Dalton has two touchdowns through three games so far and we're still not quite sure which version we're getting -- the regular season or the postseason Dalton. Dalton is the 17th most expensive QB this week at $6,800.

RBs I Love

DeMarco Murray (vs Houston Texans) - I wrote earlier this week why Murray will make you a millionaire and those reasons remain the same now. He is on a historic tear and the Cowboys offensive line looks like the best in football right now. Murray is the 4th most expensive RB this week at $7,500.

Le'Veon Bell (at Jacksonville Jaguars) - See Roethlisberger, Ben. The Jags defense is just as atrocious against the run. Bell is the 6th most expensive RB this week at $7,300.

Bishop Sankey (vs Cleveland Browns) - Titans head coach Ken Whisenhunt has finally realized what we've knwon all along - the committee of Shonn Greene and Dexter McCluster isn't working. Whisenhunt stated earlier this week that Sankey would be getting more reps this week, and it couldn't come at a better time. The Browns have allowed 413 rushing yards and four touchdowns to opposing RBs in just three games. If you're in a salary bind, Sankey is your man this week. Sankey is valued at $4,700 this week.

For Your Consideration: Rashad Jennings (vs Atlanta Falcons) - While I said three players per list, I couldn't pass on Jennings this week. Atlanta has allowed the most fantasy points (118) and touchdowns (8) to opposing RBs this season. Jennings is valued at $5,500 this week.

RBs I Hate

Marshawn Lynch (at Washington Redskins) - The last time Seattle was on the road, Lynch carried the ball six times in their loss to the Chargers. Granted he scored on a receiving touchdown, but that's not Lynch's forte. This week, he goes up against a Redskins rush defense that is only allowing 77 yards per game. Let's not forget that the Seahawks aren't the best team away from home. Coupled with his $7,200 price tag this week, I say you can find better value elsewhere.

Montee Ball (at Denver Broncos) - Ball has a brutal matchup on Sunday facing a stout Cardinals defense that has allowed only 142 rushing yards to opposing RBs this year, fewest in the NFL. Ball has produced nine fantasy points in his last two outings. He is valued at $6,500 this week.

Donald Brown (vs New York Jets) - Finally, some redemption for New York fans. While their pass defense leaves much to be desired, the Jets have arguably a better rush defense than the Cardinals. The Jets have allowed 185 yards on the ground and zero touchdowns in four games, as opposed to 142 yards and two touchdowns in three games for the Cardinals. Brown is valued at $5,400 this week.

WRs I Love

Antonio Brown (at Jacksonville Jaguars) - Did I mention the Steelers are playing the Jags, who've allowed 344.2 passing yards per game, this week? Brown is the 2nd most expensive WR at $8,100 this week.

Kelvin Benjamin (vs Chicago Bears) - An early candidate for rookie of the year faces a Bears defense that has allowed the 6th most fantasy points to WRs. Benjamin is 7th among WRs in fantasy so far this season and his $4,800 price tag this week is an absolute steal.

Jeremy Maclin (vs St. Louis Rams) - In an offense created to spread the wealth, Maclin has emerged as the beneficiary and favorite target of Nick Foles. Maclin has been targeted 46 times, second to only Jordy Nelson (49), who just finished his fifth game Thursday night. The opportunities will continue to present themselves to Maclin, who has also become the playmaker for the Eagles in the 4th quarter so far this season. Maclin is valued at $5,600 this week.

WRs I Hate

Calvin Johnson (vs Buffalo Bills) - No sane person trying to win a million dollars should waste $8,200 of their salary cap on someone who is questionable for their game, even if his nickname is Megatron. Johnson will be nothing more than a decoy if he suits up this week, keeping the Bills defense honest with him on the field. The best receiver in the league needs to stay on the bench this week.

A.J. Green (at New England Patriots) - Inconsistent Andy Dalton against the best ranked pass defense in the NFL right now. Coupled with the fact that Green and Muhammad Sanu are tied in fantasy points (Sanu's QB skills have helped him keep pace), playing Green at a $7,400 price tag this week is high-risk, low-reward.

Sammy Watkins (at Detroit Lions) - Detroit has only allowed two touchdowns to WRs in four games, both on the road. Although E.J. Manuel was benched, I don't expect anything different from Kyle Orton. Don't be fooled by Watkins' $4,800 price tag this week. Stay away.

TEs I Love

Delanie Walker (vs Cleveland Browns) - Walker has been the only positive on an otherwise disappointing Tennessee Titans team. His 33 targets is third among TEs. He has a favorable matchup with the Browns this week, who rank 28th against opposing TEs. His price tag of $4,300 is a much better bargain than some of his counterparts. That being said...

Jimmy Graham (vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers) - The Saints are at home, the Bucs defense has struggled mightily so far this season. If you don't want to take a shot on a non-household name sleeper, Graham is a safe bet this week, as long as you're willing to cough up the $7,600 for his price tag.

Heath Miller (at Jacksonville Jaguars) - Jaguars. 31st against opposing TEs. $4,000 price tag for Miller. Next.

TEs I Hate

Travis Kelce (at San Francisco 49ers) - Kelce has emerged as a threat in the Chiefs offense, but he faces a stingy 49ers defense that is 2nd against opposing TEs. If Alex Smith can get in a rhythm, Kelce could have a big day. High-risk, high-reward. My money's on risk. Kelce's price tag is $3,000.

Dwayne Allen/Coby Fleener (vs Baltimore Ravens) - The Colts two-headed TE attack faces a Ravens defense that ranks 1st against opposing TEs. Even if one manages a productive game, it's essentially a coin-flip to figure out who it will be. Allen and Fleener's price tag are both $3,000.

Zach Ertz (vs St. Louis Rams) - Another casualty of Chip Kelly's spread-the-wealth offense, Ertz hasn't lived up to fantasy expectations just yet. And while better weeks lie ahead, this won't be one of them. The Rams rank 4th against opposing TEs. There are better options this week. Ertz will cost you $3,800 this week.

D/ST I Love

Philadelphia Eagles (vs St. Louis Rams) - While it's insane to hope for the Eagles to repeat their performance on defense and special teams this week, the Rams 31st-ranked offense should provide a productive day for the Philly defense. Whether it's Shaun Hill or Austin Davis at the helm on Sunday, the Eagles will produce fantasy points at their expense. Philly's D/ST costs $3,300.

Cincinnati Bengals (at New England Patriots) - The Patriots offensive line is crumbling. The offense has been anemic. Tom Brady is playing like Tom Savage. Oh, and the Bengals are coming to town. With six interceptions in three games, Cincinnati's defense is poised for another big game in New England. The Bengals D/ST will cost you $3,800.

Pittsburgh Steelers (at Jacksonville Jaguars) - I think I've made my point here. $3,500 price tag.

D/ST I Hate

New England Patriots (vs Cincinnati Bengals) - While their pass defense is top notch, the Patriots weakness lies against the run, something Giovanni Bernard and company will exploit Sunday night. And while Andy Dalton will be unpredictable as always, I think he'll avoid rewarding the Pats defense on Sunday night. New England boasts the most expensive D/ST at $4,300.

New Orleans Saints (vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers) - The Saints D/ST has the 2nd fewest fantasy points, in front of only the Jaguars. To make matters worse, Pro Bowl Safety Jairus Byrd was put on season-ending IR during the week. There could be an NFC South shootout on Sunday, avoid the Saints D/ST, valued at $2,500.

Atlanta Falcons (at New York Giants) - If you take away the Falcons drubbing of Tampa Bay, Atlanta's D/ST has combined for negative 17 points in its other three games. The Falcons have one of the worst defenses in the NFL right now, especially their run defense that's allowed eight touchdowns in four games. This game could turn into a shootout as I said earlier and that doesn't benefit the Falcons D/ST, and it definitely doesn't benefit your chance at winning $1,000,000.

The Detroit Lions welcome the Buffalo Bills this Sunday to Ford Field for a 1pm kickoff. The Lions' record stands at 3-1 following Week 4's 24-17 win over the New York Jets. Buffalo looks to get back on track following 2 straight losses which brought them to 2-2 on the year. Vegas has Detroit as a 6 1/2 point favorite with an o/u of 44.

Two big injury concerns for the Lions heading into the game. RB Joique Bell has been ruled out due to a concussion, and WR Calvin Johnson is questionable due to an ankle injury but expected to play. Megatron was mainly used as a decoy last week, putting up a pedestrian 2/12/0 line.

Buffalo has been pretty strong against the run so far, holding opponents to 286 yards and 0 TDs. Their Pass D has been a mixed bag, allowing 1,065 yards and 6 TDs while forcing 5 INTs. Detroit has been pretty heavily weighted to the passing game, with a split of 148/113 in pass to rush attempts. QB Matthew Stafford currently sits at 4th in the league with 1,176 yards, but his 5 TDs on the year have to be considered a disappointment. The run game has not produced much for the Lions with 349 yards, however they do have 4 TDs on the ground.

This Sunday brings the chance to win ONE MILLION DOLLARS - www.FFChamps.com/million. Players with more opportunities - i.e. targets and touches - provide better upside, which is what we are looking for to put us in the best position to make some cash. The Lions' injury woes present 3 such candidates, listed below with salary for the week.

• RB Reggie Bush, $6,200. Bush and Bell have been pretty even so far in production, with Bell seeing more opportunites on the ground while Bush receives more targets through the air. Bell being out opens up even more opportunity for Bush, a heavy workload is a given it's just a matter of production at this point.
• WR Golden Tate, $4,900. With Johnson banged up, Tate put up his biggest line of the year last week - 8/116/0. His 11 targets were also a season high, look for that trend to continue Sunday.
• TE Eric Ebron, $3,000. At a bargain basement price, Ebron could see some red zone targets this week. He found the end zone for the 1st time last week, could be the confidence boost he needs to start making some noise.

As always, monitor the injury reports for news on Johnson. Get your lineups set - www.FFChamps.com/million - this week is going to be epic.

An incredible opportunity is on the table for this week's games. The chance to win ONE MILLION DOLLARS is very real, anticipation has been continually building. The waiting is almost over, if you haven't already entered your lineups in there is still time www.FFChamps.com/million.

There are plenty of ways to attack roster construction. Prefer the stud RBs? Love slot receivers that receive a ton of targets? Willing to pay up for a top QB? Or do you prefer to find the best value at QB? Whichever way you choose, just remember that there is always a ton of value on the board if you're willing to dig a little deep. In the interest of saving you some time, here are 5 WR candidates priced at the minimum salary, $3,000:

• Jerricho Cotchery, CAR. Solid 5/80/0 last week on 7 targets. Good hands and a reliable target, the more attention that gets paid to teammate Kelvin Benjamin, the more targets he may see. However, could get lost in the shuffle as Benjamin and TE Greg Olsen receive bulk of targets.

• Malcolm Floyd, SD. 15/187/2 on the year, receives his share of targets. Downside is teammate Keenan Allen awoke from his slumber last week and may continue to be the focal point.

• Brandon Lafell, NE. One of the few bright spots for the Pats from the MNF debacle - 6/119/1 - could be more involved going forward. Downside is that outside of Julius Edelman and Rob Gronkowski, it's near impossible to predict NE targets and touches.

• Kenny Britt, STL. Had his best game of the year prior to the Rams bye week - 5/69/0, could be a sign he will be receiving a bigger workload. The talent has always been there, it's just a question of if he can put it together.

• Allen Robinson, JAX. Robinson leads the Jags in targets with 26, in game with an o/u of 47 1/2 and Pittsburgh favored by 6, Robinson should see plenty of work. Downside is that he has not found the end zone yet this year, perhaps that streak comes to an end.

Five candidates to consider that will not eat up a lot of cap space, if you spend $3k here you will have $47k left to build out your roster. Upside and downside for all 5, but worth considering to free up some space. Get your lineups in - www.FFChamps.com/million - someone is going to make ONE MILLION DOLLARS.

When playing in a salary cap style tournament such as this one - www.FFChamps.com/million, research can sometimes be overwhelming. There are so many players to choose from and each game represents an intriguing scenario. Do you search for the players who have been on fire all year? Look for games where one (or both) sides can't play defense to save their lives? So many options every week, it's really easy to get frustrated and not know where to begin. Relax, take a deep breath, and read on.

Luckily, a lot of the research has been done for us already. How is that? Las Vegas. The sportsbooks in Vegas set lines for each matchup, and used correctly they can save you a ton of time. The boys from Vegas are sharp, they know their stuff, and provide an awesome starting point each week. I always start the week by checking out the lines and noting any games that look potentially to be high scoring. If a game has an over/under set at greater than or equal to 48, I make a special mental note on that one, it could be a great source of points for the week.

This week, we have 4 such games that fit the bill:

• ATL @ NYG, NYG -4, o/u 50. The Giants have turned it around after a rough start, showing the nation that their offense is alive and well on TNF last week. Atlanta has been inconsistent to start, but they also have a full range of weapons at their disposal, as demonstrated in Week 3's 56-14 demolition of Tampa Bay at the Georgia Dome.

• TB @ NO, NO -10, 48 1/2. Drew Brees and the Saints look to get back on track against the same Tampa Bay Bucs (also in a dome...). The Saints offense has not been its usual explosive self, could be a great week for it to get back on track. The Bucs will probably be playing catch-up, which could bode well for the passing game.

• BAL @ IND, IND - 3 1/2, 49. Both teams come in off of huge performances in Week 4. The Ravens rolled over Carolina 38-10, while the Colts dispatched the Titans 41-17. Looks like a great spot for both Offenses, and the line actually opened at o/u 46 1/2 - a full 2 1/2 point move to the current 49.

• AZ @ DEN, DEN - 7 1/2, 48. Not much needs to be said about Peyton Manning and the Broncos Offense, but I think it's important to note they are coming in off of their bye week. Arizona comes in at 3-0 and also off the bye, they have been impressive all year and will be looking to make a statement. Could be a surprising shootout.

Four games, and a bunch of possibilities from each. Does that mean you just load up on players from these games and be done with it? Not necessarily, but it gives you some great options as your building out your roster. Stuck on 2 players? Is one of them from the 4 games listed above? Your choice just got a whole lot easier.

This week is setting up to be epic, someone is walking away with ONE MILLION DOLLARS. Get your lineups in - www.FFChamps.com/million - and good luck!

It's almost here -www.FFChamps.com/million - there's still time to get your lineups in but kickoff is fast approaching. Signup is easy, you will construct the best roster you can under the $50,000 salary cap and make your Sunday even more enjoyable. There are endless ways you can choose your team and plenty of options for each position, the possibilities can be overwhelming. What do you do when you just don't have enough space to fit in all the players you want?

Value shopping will take you far in tournaments such as this one - www.FFChamps.com/million. Some get mesmerized by all the higher priced options and can't move past them. If you take the time to go through each position at the lower salary ranges, you'll be surprised at what you can sometimes find. This week, there are several such players at the RB question that present a tremendous value opportunity. In the interest of saving you some time, here are 5 RBs, all at $5,500 or less to help you build your team:

• Rashad Jennings, NYG $5,500. Jennings has been receiving a huge workload for Big Blue, with 81 rushing attempts and 11 targets through the air. Their opponent this Sunday, the Atlanta Falcons, have given up some huge games on the ground this year.

• Frank Gore, SF $5,200. The more they try to limit his workload, the harder he runs. 174 combined yards vs. Philly last week, may be entering one of his zones. The Chiefs are coming in off their MNF mauling of the Pats, expect them to come back to earth.

• Darren Sproles, PHI $5,100. A steal for the Eagles and a steal at this price. Brings more to the table than Lesean McCoy has this year and a whole lot cheaper, he's golden on a full PPR site.

• Bishop Sankey, TEN $4,700. Expected to receive a bigger workload going forward, won't be long before he's the clear #1. 5.1 yard rushing average in limited action, time to take the training wheels off.

• Ahmad Bradshaw, IND $4,000. Also golden for full PPR sites, Bradshaw has hauled in 4 TDs through the air thus far. A multi-purpose back at a bottom barrel price.

Take advantage of the pricing inefficiencies that are in front of you each week. These 5 RBs are affordable and should produce, freeing up valuable salary cap space to use elsewhere. Someone is taking home One Million Dollars - www.FFChamps.com/million, get your lineups in and get in the running. Good luck!

The 1pm kickoffs can't come fast enough and this week is especially exciting - www.FFChamps.com/million. Someone is walking away with One Million Dollars for playing Fantasy Football. An incredible time to be a fan and Fantasy Player, this is a huge opportunity to make some serious cash doing something you love.

Roster construction can take many forms. You can use a balanced approach, allocating the 50k salary cap pretty evenly across positions. You could load up on stud RBs and find value elsewhere, or perhaps big time WRs are your thing. The possibilities are endless, and that just adds to the enjoyment and excitement. No matter which strategy you choose, it's critical to nail your QB. A horrible day from your QB almost certainly spells disaster.

Some people like safety in their QB and who can blame them. Consistent production and a shot at a great day can be a winning recipe. On the other hand, spotting a value priced QB who may be a little risky could provide the upside you need to separate your roster from the rest. Either way, find your comfort zone and choose the QB you think gives you the best shot at taking it down. For those that are willing to take their chance at greatness with an against the grain QB, we present 5 inexpensive QBs to take a look at:

• Austin Davis, Stl. $5,600. The Rams travel to Philly for a game they will probably lose. However, consider a few factors in play here: 1. Davis was just named starter for remainder of year, should boost the confidence. 2. The Rams are coming off the bye. Rough start for the Rams, but HC Jeff Fisher has had some extra time to get the house in order. 3. The Eagles have allowed 10 TDs through the air so far, if they are up as expected it could bode well for Davis and the passing game.

• Ryan Fitzpatrick, Hou. $5,500. Fitz and the Texans travel to Dallas this week. The Cowboys have actually played better than expected on D of late, but can still be beat through the air - 8 TDs allowed on the year. A 47 o/u, Fitz may have some time to throw if the 'Boys key in on stopping Arian Foster and the running game.  

• Mike Glennon, TB. $5,500.Everyone is expecting the Bucs to get killed when they play the Saints, and they very well may. On the other hand, the Saints D has been a shell of what it was last year. An o/u of 48 and the Saints a 10 point favorite could be pointing to a lot of yardage for Glenning and co. as they play catch up.

• Brian Hoyer, Cle. $5,200. Has held off Johnny Manziel so far and brings a 97.5 QB rating into the game. Not going to set the world on fire, but the Titans are coming off giving up 393 yards and 4 TDs to Andrew Luck and the Colts. Hoyer is no Luck on this or any other planet, but could make a little noise at a cheap price.

• Drew Stanton, AZ. $5,000. Statement game for the Cards as they travel to Denver to face the Broncos. Both teams are coming in off their bye week for a late afternoon kickoff. An o/u set at 48, this one could be pretty entertaining and the Cards could surprise some folks.

Plenty of options on the board, all the way from high-priced studs to low cost value plays. Choose the startegy you feel best with, get your lineups in - www.FFChamps.com/million - and good luck!

We're already a quarter of the way through the season and there are plenty of hot topics that have been produced. Did we write off Dallas too soon? Will the Saints defense dash their postseason hopes? Are the Patriots finished as an elite team? Who will emerge from a very competitive NFC West? Did I jinx my beloved Eagles by attending the one game they've lost this season?

There are more questions than answers at this point, but that's not why you're reading this. You're here because you've been changing your lineups frantically all week asking some anonymous higher power if Peyton Manning is really worth his price tag this week. Fortunately for you, I'm here to provide some clarity to your jumbled brain. So take some advice from Aaron Rodgers and "RELAX" so I can make you a future millionaire.

Note: Packers/Vikings players will obviously be exempt from these lists. Any big-name players that are absent from my lists (Peyton Manning, LeSean McCoy, etc.), are absent because there is only room for three players per list, their price is too high, or I predict their performances will be average and not indisputable enough to place them on either list. Do your homework on those players.

Finally, I won't be covering kickers. Like a fantasy football draft, a kicker should be your last concern as well as your cheapest.

QBs I Love

Philip Rivers (vs New York Jets) - Rivers is second among QBs in fantasy behind only Andrew Luck, and Keenan Allen hasn't even had a monster game yet. The Jets have allowed 1,015 yards, nine touchdowns and zero interceptions to opposing QBs through four games, one of them against Derek Carr. Rivers is the 14th most expensive QB, which is mind-boggling, at $7,000 this week. Don't overthink it, start Rivers.

Matt Ryan (at New York Giants) - I promise I'm not picking on you, New York. You just drew a bad hand this week. This game could very well turn into a shootout with the Giants offense coming to life last week. Unfortunately, shootouts tend to favor the owners of Matty Ice. Regardless of the outcome, I fully expect Ryan to shred the Giants secondary en route to a stellar fantasy day. Ryan is the 6th most expensive QB this week at $8,100.

Ben Roethlisberger (at Jacksonville Jaguars) - The Jags are allowing 344.2 passing yards per game this season, let that sink in. While you do, contemplate how many bombs Antonio Brown is going to be on the receiving end of on Sunday. Get it? Got it? Good. Big Ben is the 11th most expensive QB this week at $7,400.

QBs I Hate

Nick Foles (vs St. Louis Rams) - As an Eagles fan, this pains me. The Rams currently allow the fewest passing yards in the NFL and although Lane Johnson returns from a four-game suspension this week, the interior of the line is still mediocre at best. Robert Quinn against Jason Peters should be an intriging matchup, but I expect Foles to be under duress once again on Sunday. Foles is the 5th most expensive option at QB this week at $8,500.

Colin Kaepernick (vs Kansas City Chiefs) - Another QB having an unusual season, I witnessed Kaepernick's struggles live last week. Throwing behind receivers, happy feet in the pocket, Kaepernick doesn't look comfortbale at all. After dismantling the Patriots on Monday night, I expect more of the same from Kansas City defense, and Kaepernick as well. Kaepernick is the 7th most expensive QB this week at $7,800.

Andy Dalton (at New England Patriots) - Any time you start Andy Dalton, you're rolling the dice. This is not the week to roll the dice. Dalton has two touchdowns through three games so far and we're still not quite sure which version we're getting -- the regular season or the postseason Dalton. Dalton is the 17th most expensive QB this week at $6,800.

RBs I Love

DeMarco Murray (vs Houston Texans) - I wrote earlier this week why Murray will make you a millionaire and those reasons remain the same now. He is on a historic tear and the Cowboys offensive line looks like the best in football right now. Murray is the 4th most expensive RB this week at $7,500.

Le'Veon Bell (at Jacksonville Jaguars) - See Roethlisberger, Ben. The Jags defense is just as atrocious against the run. Bell is the 6th most expensive RB this week at $7,300.

Bishop Sankey (vs Cleveland Browns) - Titans head coach Ken Whisenhunt has finally realized what we've knwon all along - the committee of Shonn Greene and Dexter McCluster isn't working. Whisenhunt stated earlier this week that Sankey would be getting more reps this week, and it couldn't come at a better time. The Browns have allowed 413 rushing yards and four touchdowns to opposing RBs in just three games. If you're in a salary bind, Sankey is your man this week. Sankey is valued at $4,700 this week.

For Your Consideration: Rashad Jennings (vs Atlanta Falcons) - While I said three players per list, I couldn't pass on Jennings this week. Atlanta has allowed the most fantasy points (118) and touchdowns (8) to opposing RBs this season. Jennings is valued at $5,500 this week.

RBs I Hate

Marshawn Lynch (at Washington Redskins) - The last time Seattle was on the road, Lynch carried the ball six times in their loss to the Chargers. Granted he scored on a receiving touchdown, but that's not Lynch's forte. This week, he goes up against a Redskins rush defense that is only allowing 77 yards per game. Let's not forget that the Seahawks aren't the best team away from home. Coupled with his $7,200 price tag this week, I say you can find better value elsewhere.

Montee Ball (at Denver Broncos) - Ball has a brutal matchup on Sunday facing a stout Cardinals defense that has allowed only 142 rushing yards to opposing RBs this year, fewest in the NFL. Ball has produced nine fantasy points in his last two outings. He is valued at $6,500 this week.

Donald Brown (vs New York Jets) - Finally, some redemption for New York fans. While their pass defense leaves much to be desired, the Jets have arguably a better rush defense than the Cardinals. The Jets have allowed 185 yards on the ground and zero touchdowns in four games, as opposed to 142 yards and two touchdowns in three games for the Cardinals. Brown is valued at $5,400 this week.

WRs I Love

Antonio Brown (at Jacksonville Jaguars) - Did I mention the Steelers are playing the Jags, who've allowed 344.2 passing yards per game, this week? Brown is the 2nd most expensive WR at $8,100 this week.

Kelvin Benjamin (vs Chicago Bears) - An early candidate for rookie of the year faces a Bears defense that has allowed the 6th most fantasy points to WRs. Benjamin is 7th among WRs in fantasy so far this season and his $4,800 price tag this week is an absolute steal.

Jeremy Maclin (vs St. Louis Rams) - In an offense created to spread the wealth, Maclin has emerged as the beneficiary and favorite target of Nick Foles. Maclin has been targeted 46 times, second to only Jordy Nelson (49), who just finished his fifth game Thursday night. The opportunities will continue to present themselves to Maclin, who has also become the playmaker for the Eagles in the 4th quarter so far this season. Maclin is valued at $5,600 this week.

WRs I Hate

Calvin Johnson (vs Buffalo Bills) - No sane person trying to win a million dollars should waste $8,200 of their salary cap on someone who is questionable for their game, even if his nickname is Megatron. Johnson will be nothing more than a decoy if he suits up this week, keeping the Bills defense honest with him on the field. The best receiver in the league needs to stay on the bench this week.

A.J. Green (at New England Patriots) - Inconsistent Andy Dalton against the best ranked pass defense in the NFL right now. Coupled with the fact that Green and Muhammad Sanu are tied in fantasy points (Sanu's QB skills have helped him keep pace), playing Green at a $7,400 price tag this week is high-risk, low-reward.

Sammy Watkins (at Detroit Lions) - Detroit has only allowed two touchdowns to WRs in four games, both on the road. Although E.J. Manuel was benched, I don't expect anything different from Kyle Orton. Don't be fooled by Watkins' $4,800 price tag this week. Stay away.

TEs I Love

Delanie Walker (vs Cleveland Browns) - Walker has been the only positive on an otherwise disappointing Tennessee Titans team. His 33 targets is third among TEs. He has a favorable matchup with the Browns this week, who rank 28th against opposing TEs. His price tag of $4,300 is a much better bargain than some of his counterparts. That being said...

Jimmy Graham (vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers) - The Saints are at home, the Bucs defense has struggled mightily so far this season. If you don't want to take a shot on a non-household name sleeper, Graham is a safe bet this week, as long as you're willing to cough up the $7,600 for his price tag.

Heath Miller (at Jacksonville Jaguars) - Jaguars. 31st against opposing TEs. $4,000 price tag for Miller. Next.

TEs I Hate

Travis Kelce (at San Francisco 49ers) - Kelce has emerged as a threat in the Chiefs offense, but he faces a stingy 49ers defense that is 2nd against opposing TEs. If Alex Smith can get in a rhythm, Kelce could have a big day. High-risk, high-reward. My money's on risk. Kelce's price tag is $3,000.

Dwayne Allen/Coby Fleener (vs Baltimore Ravens) - The Colts two-headed TE attack faces a Ravens defense that ranks 1st against opposing TEs. Even if one manages a productive game, it's essentially a coin-flip to figure out who it will be. Allen and Fleener's price tag are both $3,000.

Zach Ertz (vs St. Louis Rams) - Another casualty of Chip Kelly's spread-the-wealth offense, Ertz hasn't lived up to fantasy expectations just yet. And while better weeks lie ahead, this won't be one of them. The Rams rank 4th against opposing TEs. There are better options this week. Ertz will cost you $3,800 this week.

D/ST I Love

Philadelphia Eagles (vs St. Louis Rams) - While it's insane to hope for the Eagles to repeat their performance on defense and special teams this week, the Rams 31st-ranked offense should provide a productive day for the Philly defense. Whether it's Shaun Hill or Austin Davis at the helm on Sunday, the Eagles will produce fantasy points at their expense. Philly's D/ST costs $3,300.

Cincinnati Bengals (at New England Patriots) - The Patriots offensive line is crumbling. The offense has been anemic. Tom Brady is playing like Tom Savage. Oh, and the Bengals are coming to town. With six interceptions in three games, Cincinnati's defense is poised for another big game in New England. The Bengals D/ST will cost you $3,800.

Pittsburgh Steelers (at Jacksonville Jaguars) - I think I've made my point here. $3,500 price tag.

D/ST I Hate

New England Patriots (vs Cincinnati Bengals) - While their pass defense is top notch, the Patriots weakness lies against the run, something Giovanni Bernard and company will exploit Sunday night. And while Andy Dalton will be unpredictable as always, I think he'll avoid rewarding the Pats defense on Sunday night. New England boasts the most expensive D/ST at $4,300.

New Orleans Saints (vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers) - The Saints D/ST has the 2nd fewest fantasy points, in front of only the Jaguars. To make matters worse, Pro Bowl Safety Jairus Byrd was put on season-ending IR during the week. There could be an NFC South shootout on Sunday, avoid the Saints D/ST, valued at $2,500.

Atlanta Falcons (at New York Giants) - If you take away the Falcons drubbing of Tampa Bay, Atlanta's D/ST has combined for negative 17 points in its other three games. The Falcons have one of the worst defenses in the NFL right now, especially their run defense that's allowed eight touchdowns in four games. This game could turn into a shootout as I said earlier and that doesn't benefit the Falcons D/ST, and it definitely doesn't benefit your chance at winning $1,000,000.

The Detroit Lions welcome the Buffalo Bills this Sunday to Ford Field for a 1pm kickoff. The Lions' record stands at 3-1 following Week 4's 24-17 win over the New York Jets. Buffalo looks to get back on track following 2 straight losses which brought them to 2-2 on the year. Vegas has Detroit as a 6 1/2 point favorite with an o/u of 44.

Two big injury concerns for the Lions heading into the game. RB Joique Bell has been ruled out due to a concussion, and WR Calvin Johnson is questionable due to an ankle injury but expected to play. Megatron was mainly used as a decoy last week, putting up a pedestrian 2/12/0 line.

Buffalo has been pretty strong against the run so far, holding opponents to 286 yards and 0 TDs. Their Pass D has been a mixed bag, allowing 1,065 yards and 6 TDs while forcing 5 INTs. Detroit has been pretty heavily weighted to the passing game, with a split of 148/113 in pass to rush attempts. QB Matthew Stafford currently sits at 4th in the league with 1,176 yards, but his 5 TDs on the year have to be considered a disappointment. The run game has not produced much for the Lions with 349 yards, however they do have 4 TDs on the ground.

This Sunday brings the chance to win ONE MILLION DOLLARS - www.FFChamps.com/million. Players with more opportunities - i.e. targets and touches - provide better upside, which is what we are looking for to put us in the best position to make some cash. The Lions' injury woes present 3 such candidates, listed below with salary for the week.

• RB Reggie Bush, $6,200. Bush and Bell have been pretty even so far in production, with Bell seeing more opportunites on the ground while Bush receives more targets through the air. Bell being out opens up even more opportunity for Bush, a heavy workload is a given it's just a matter of production at this point.
• WR Golden Tate, $4,900. With Johnson banged up, Tate put up his biggest line of the year last week - 8/116/0. His 11 targets were also a season high, look for that trend to continue Sunday.
• TE Eric Ebron, $3,000. At a bargain basement price, Ebron could see some red zone targets this week. He found the end zone for the 1st time last week, could be the confidence boost he needs to start making some noise.

As always, monitor the injury reports for news on Johnson. Get your lineups set - www.FFChamps.com/million - this week is going to be epic.

An incredible opportunity is on the table for this week's games. The chance to win ONE MILLION DOLLARS is very real, anticipation has been continually building. The waiting is almost over, if you haven't already entered your lineups in there is still time www.FFChamps.com/million.

There are plenty of ways to attack roster construction. Prefer the stud RBs? Love slot receivers that receive a ton of targets? Willing to pay up for a top QB? Or do you prefer to find the best value at QB? Whichever way you choose, just remember that there is always a ton of value on the board if you're willing to dig a little deep. In the interest of saving you some time, here are 5 WR candidates priced at the minimum salary, $3,000:

• Jerricho Cotchery, CAR. Solid 5/80/0 last week on 7 targets. Good hands and a reliable target, the more attention that gets paid to teammate Kelvin Benjamin, the more targets he may see. However, could get lost in the shuffle as Benjamin and TE Greg Olsen receive bulk of targets.

• Malcolm Floyd, SD. 15/187/2 on the year, receives his share of targets. Downside is teammate Keenan Allen awoke from his slumber last week and may continue to be the focal point.

• Brandon Lafell, NE. One of the few bright spots for the Pats from the MNF debacle - 6/119/1 - could be more involved going forward. Downside is that outside of Julius Edelman and Rob Gronkowski, it's near impossible to predict NE targets and touches.

• Kenny Britt, STL. Had his best game of the year prior to the Rams bye week - 5/69/0, could be a sign he will be receiving a bigger workload. The talent has always been there, it's just a question of if he can put it together.

• Allen Robinson, JAX. Robinson leads the Jags in targets with 26, in game with an o/u of 47 1/2 and Pittsburgh favored by 6, Robinson should see plenty of work. Downside is that he has not found the end zone yet this year, perhaps that streak comes to an end.

Five candidates to consider that will not eat up a lot of cap space, if you spend $3k here you will have $47k left to build out your roster. Upside and downside for all 5, but worth considering to free up some space. Get your lineups in - www.FFChamps.com/million - someone is going to make ONE MILLION DOLLARS.

When playing in a salary cap style tournament such as this one - www.FFChamps.com/million, research can sometimes be overwhelming. There are so many players to choose from and each game represents an intriguing scenario. Do you search for the players who have been on fire all year? Look for games where one (or both) sides can't play defense to save their lives? So many options every week, it's really easy to get frustrated and not know where to begin. Relax, take a deep breath, and read on.

Luckily, a lot of the research has been done for us already. How is that? Las Vegas. The sportsbooks in Vegas set lines for each matchup, and used correctly they can save you a ton of time. The boys from Vegas are sharp, they know their stuff, and provide an awesome starting point each week. I always start the week by checking out the lines and noting any games that look potentially to be high scoring. If a game has an over/under set at greater than or equal to 48, I make a special mental note on that one, it could be a great source of points for the week.

This week, we have 4 such games that fit the bill:

• ATL @ NYG, NYG -4, o/u 50. The Giants have turned it around after a rough start, showing the nation that their offense is alive and well on TNF last week. Atlanta has been inconsistent to start, but they also have a full range of weapons at their disposal, as demonstrated in Week 3's 56-14 demolition of Tampa Bay at the Georgia Dome.

• TB @ NO, NO -10, 48 1/2. Drew Brees and the Saints look to get back on track against the same Tampa Bay Bucs (also in a dome...). The Saints offense has not been its usual explosive self, could be a great week for it to get back on track. The Bucs will probably be playing catch-up, which could bode well for the passing game.

• BAL @ IND, IND - 3 1/2, 49. Both teams come in off of huge performances in Week 4. The Ravens rolled over Carolina 38-10, while the Colts dispatched the Titans 41-17. Looks like a great spot for both Offenses, and the line actually opened at o/u 46 1/2 - a full 2 1/2 point move to the current 49.

• AZ @ DEN, DEN - 7 1/2, 48. Not much needs to be said about Peyton Manning and the Broncos Offense, but I think it's important to note they are coming in off of their bye week. Arizona comes in at 3-0 and also off the bye, they have been impressive all year and will be looking to make a statement. Could be a surprising shootout.

Four games, and a bunch of possibilities from each. Does that mean you just load up on players from these games and be done with it? Not necessarily, but it gives you some great options as your building out your roster. Stuck on 2 players? Is one of them from the 4 games listed above? Your choice just got a whole lot easier.

It's almost here -www.FFChamps.com/million - there's still time to get your lineups in but kickoff is fast approaching. Signup is easy, you will construct the best roster you can under the $50,000 salary cap and make your Sunday even more enjoyable. There are endless ways you can choose your team and plenty of options for each position, the possibilities can be overwhelming. What do you do when you just don't have enough space to fit in all the players you want?

Value shopping will take you far in tournaments such as this one - www.FFChamps.com/million. Some get mesmerized by all the higher priced options and can't move past them. If you take the time to go through each position at the lower salary ranges, you'll be surprised at what you can sometimes find. This week, there are several such players at the RB question that present a tremendous value opportunity. In the interest of saving you some time, here are 5 RBs, all at $5,500 or less to help you build your team:

• Rashad Jennings, NYG $5,500. Jennings has been receiving a huge workload for Big Blue, with 81 rushing attempts and 11 targets through the air. Their opponent this Sunday, the Atlanta Falcons, have given up some huge games on the ground this year.

• Frank Gore, SF $5,200. The more they try to limit his workload, the harder he runs. 174 combined yards vs. Philly last week, may be entering one of his zones. The Chiefs are coming in off their MNF mauling of the Pats, expect them to come back to earth.

• Darren Sproles, PHI $5,100. A steal for the Eagles and a steal at this price. Brings more to the table than Lesean McCoy has this year and a whole lot cheaper, he's golden on a full PPR site.

• Bishop Sankey, TEN $4,700. Expected to receive a bigger workload going forward, won't be long before he's the clear #1. 5.1 yard rushing average in limited action, time to take the training wheels off.

• Ahmad Bradshaw, IND $4,000. Also golden for full PPR sites, Bradshaw has hauled in 4 TDs through the air thus far. A multi-purpose back at a bottom barrel price.

The 1pm kickoffs can't come fast enough and this week is especially exciting - www.FFChamps.com/million. Someone is walking away with One Million Dollars for playing Fantasy Football. An incredible time to be a fan and Fantasy Player, this is a huge opportunity to make some serious cash doing something you love.

Roster construction can take many forms. You can use a balanced approach, allocating the 50k salary cap pretty evenly across positions. You could load up on stud RBs and find value elsewhere, or perhaps big time WRs are your thing. The possibilities are endless, and that just adds to the enjoyment and excitement. No matter which strategy you choose, it's critical to nail your QB. A horrible day from your QB almost certainly spells disaster.

Some people like safety in their QB and who can blame them. Consistent production and a shot at a great day can be a winning recipe. On the other hand, spotting a value priced QB who may be a little risky could provide the upside you need to separate your roster from the rest. Either way, find your comfort zone and choose the QB you think gives you the best shot at taking it down. For those that are willing to take their chance at greatness with an against the grain QB, we present 5 inexpensive QBs to take a look at:

• Austin Davis, Stl. $5,600. The Rams travel to Philly for a game they will probably lose. However, consider a few factors in play here: 1. Davis was just named starter for remainder of year, should boost the confidence. 2. The Rams are coming off the bye. Rough start for the Rams, but HC Jeff Fisher has had some extra time to get the house in order. 3. The Eagles have allowed 10 TDs through the air so far, if they are up as expected it could bode well for Davis and the passing game.

• Ryan Fitzpatrick, Hou. $5,500. Fitz and the Texans travel to Dallas this week. The Cowboys have actually played better than expected on D of late, but can still be beat through the air - 8 TDs allowed on the year. A 47 o/u, Fitz may have some time to throw if the 'Boys key in on stopping Arian Foster and the running game.  

• Mike Glennon, TB. $5,500.Everyone is expecting the Bucs to get killed when they play the Saints, and they very well may. On the other hand, the Saints D has been a shell of what it was last year. An o/u of 48 and the Saints a 10 point favorite could be pointing to a lot of yardage for Glenning and co. as they play catch up.

• Brian Hoyer, Cle. $5,200. Has held off Johnny Manziel so far and brings a 97.5 QB rating into the game. Not going to set the world on fire, but the Titans are coming off giving up 393 yards and 4 TDs to Andrew Luck and the Colts. Hoyer is no Luck on this or any other planet, but could make a little noise at a cheap price.

• Drew Stanton, AZ. $5,000. Statement game for the Cards as they travel to Denver to face the Broncos. Both teams are coming in off their bye week for a late afternoon kickoff. An o/u set at 48, this one could be pretty entertaining and the Cards could surprise some folks.

Plenty of options on the board, all the way from high-priced studs to low cost value plays. Choose the startegy you feel best with, get your lineups in - www.FFChamps.com/million - and good luck!

We're already a quarter of the way through the season and there are plenty of hot topics that have been produced. Did we write off Dallas too soon? Will the Saints defense dash their postseason hopes? Are the Patriots finished as an elite team? Who will emerge from a very competitive NFC West? Did I jinx my beloved Eagles by attending the one game they've lost this season?

There are more questions than answers at this point, but that's not why you're reading this. You're here because you've been changing your lineups frantically all week asking some anonymous higher power if Peyton Manning is really worth his price tag this week. Fortunately for you, I'm here to provide some clarity to your jumbled brain. So take some advice from Aaron Rodgers and "RELAX" so I can make you a future millionaire.

Note: Packers/Vikings players will obviously be exempt from these lists. Any big-name players that are absent from my lists (Peyton Manning, LeSean McCoy, etc.), are absent because there is only room for three players per list, their price is too high, or I predict their performances will be average and not indisputable enough to place them on either list. Do your homework on those players.

Finally, I won't be covering kickers. Like a fantasy football draft, a kicker should be your last concern as well as your cheapest.

QBs I Love

Philip Rivers (vs New York Jets) - Rivers is second among QBs in fantasy behind only Andrew Luck, and Keenan Allen hasn't even had a monster game yet. The Jets have allowed 1,015 yards, nine touchdowns and zero interceptions to opposing QBs through four games, one of them against Derek Carr. Rivers is the 14th most expensive QB, which is mind-boggling, at $7,000 this week. Don't overthink it, start Rivers.

Matt Ryan (at New York Giants) - I promise I'm not picking on you, New York. You just drew a bad hand this week. This game could very well turn into a shootout with the Giants offense coming to life last week. Unfortunately, shootouts tend to favor the owners of Matty Ice. Regardless of the outcome, I fully expect Ryan to shred the Giants secondary en route to a stellar fantasy day. Ryan is the 6th most expensive QB this week at $8,100.

Ben Roethlisberger (at Jacksonville Jaguars) - The Jags are allowing 344.2 passing yards per game this season, let that sink in. While you do, contemplate how many bombs Antonio Brown is going to be on the receiving end of on Sunday. Get it? Got it? Good. Big Ben is the 11th most expensive QB this week at $7,400.

QBs I Hate

Nick Foles (vs St. Louis Rams) - As an Eagles fan, this pains me. The Rams currently allow the fewest passing yards in the NFL and although Lane Johnson returns from a four-game suspension this week, the interior of the line is still mediocre at best. Robert Quinn against Jason Peters should be an intriging matchup, but I expect Foles to be under duress once again on Sunday. Foles is the 5th most expensive option at QB this week at $8,500.

Colin Kaepernick (vs Kansas City Chiefs) - Another QB having an unusual season, I witnessed Kaepernick's struggles live last week. Throwing behind receivers, happy feet in the pocket, Kaepernick doesn't look comfortbale at all. After dismantling the Patriots on Monday night, I expect more of the same from Kansas City defense, and Kaepernick as well. Kaepernick is the 7th most expensive QB this week at $7,800.

Andy Dalton (at New England Patriots) - Any time you start Andy Dalton, you're rolling the dice. This is not the week to roll the dice. Dalton has two touchdowns through three games so far and we're still not quite sure which version we're getting -- the regular season or the postseason Dalton. Dalton is the 17th most expensive QB this week at $6,800.

RBs I Love

DeMarco Murray (vs Houston Texans) - I wrote earlier this week why Murray will make you a millionaire and those reasons remain the same now. He is on a historic tear and the Cowboys offensive line looks like the best in football right now. Murray is the 4th most expensive RB this week at $7,500.

Le'Veon Bell (at Jacksonville Jaguars) - See Roethlisberger, Ben. The Jags defense is just as atrocious against the run. Bell is the 6th most expensive RB this week at $7,300.

Bishop Sankey (vs Cleveland Browns) - Titans head coach Ken Whisenhunt has finally realized what we've knwon all along - the committee of Shonn Greene and Dexter McCluster isn't working. Whisenhunt stated earlier this week that Sankey would be getting more reps this week, and it couldn't come at a better time. The Browns have allowed 413 rushing yards and four touchdowns to opposing RBs in just three games. If you're in a salary bind, Sankey is your man this week. Sankey is valued at $4,700 this week.

For Your Consideration: Rashad Jennings (vs Atlanta Falcons) - While I said three players per list, I couldn't pass on Jennings this week. Atlanta has allowed the most fantasy points (118) and touchdowns (8) to opposing RBs this season. Jennings is valued at $5,500 this week.

RBs I Hate

Marshawn Lynch (at Washington Redskins) - The last time Seattle was on the road, Lynch carried the ball six times in their loss to the Chargers. Granted he scored on a receiving touchdown, but that's not Lynch's forte. This week, he goes up against a Redskins rush defense that is only allowing 77 yards per game. Let's not forget that the Seahawks aren't the best team away from home. Coupled with his $7,200 price tag this week, I say you can find better value elsewhere.

Montee Ball (at Denver Broncos) - Ball has a brutal matchup on Sunday facing a stout Cardinals defense that has allowed only 142 rushing yards to opposing RBs this year, fewest in the NFL. Ball has produced nine fantasy points in his last two outings. He is valued at $6,500 this week.

Donald Brown (vs New York Jets) - Finally, some redemption for New York fans. While their pass defense leaves much to be desired, the Jets have arguably a better rush defense than the Cardinals. The Jets have allowed 185 yards on the ground and zero touchdowns in four games, as opposed to 142 yards and two touchdowns in three games for the Cardinals. Brown is valued at $5,400 this week.

WRs I Love

Antonio Brown (at Jacksonville Jaguars) - Did I mention the Steelers are playing the Jags, who've allowed 344.2 passing yards per game, this week? Brown is the 2nd most expensive WR at $8,100 this week.

Kelvin Benjamin (vs Chicago Bears) - An early candidate for rookie of the year faces a Bears defense that has allowed the 6th most fantasy points to WRs. Benjamin is 7th among WRs in fantasy so far this season and his $4,800 price tag this week is an absolute steal.

Jeremy Maclin (vs St. Louis Rams) - In an offense created to spread the wealth, Maclin has emerged as the beneficiary and favorite target of Nick Foles. Maclin has been targeted 46 times, second to only Jordy Nelson (49), who just finished his fifth game Thursday night. The opportunities will continue to present themselves to Maclin, who has also become the playmaker for the Eagles in the 4th quarter so far this season. Maclin is valued at $5,600 this week.

WRs I Hate

Calvin Johnson (vs Buffalo Bills) - No sane person trying to win a million dollars should waste $8,200 of their salary cap on someone who is questionable for their game, even if his nickname is Megatron. Johnson will be nothing more than a decoy if he suits up this week, keeping the Bills defense honest with him on the field. The best receiver in the league needs to stay on the bench this week.

A.J. Green (at New England Patriots) - Inconsistent Andy Dalton against the best ranked pass defense in the NFL right now. Coupled with the fact that Green and Muhammad Sanu are tied in fantasy points (Sanu's QB skills have helped him keep pace), playing Green at a $7,400 price tag this week is high-risk, low-reward.

Sammy Watkins (at Detroit Lions) - Detroit has only allowed two touchdowns to WRs in four games, both on the road. Although E.J. Manuel was benched, I don't expect anything different from Kyle Orton. Don't be fooled by Watkins' $4,800 price tag this week. Stay away.

TEs I Love

Delanie Walker (vs Cleveland Browns) - Walker has been the only positive on an otherwise disappointing Tennessee Titans team. His 33 targets is third among TEs. He has a favorable matchup with the Browns this week, who rank 28th against opposing TEs. His price tag of $4,300 is a much better bargain than some of his counterparts. That being said...

Jimmy Graham (vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers) - The Saints are at home, the Bucs defense has struggled mightily so far this season. If you don't want to take a shot on a non-household name sleeper, Graham is a safe bet this week, as long as you're willing to cough up the $7,600 for his price tag.

Heath Miller (at Jacksonville Jaguars) - Jaguars. 31st against opposing TEs. $4,000 price tag for Miller. Next.

TEs I Hate

Travis Kelce (at San Francisco 49ers) - Kelce has emerged as a threat in the Chiefs offense, but he faces a stingy 49ers defense that is 2nd against opposing TEs. If Alex Smith can get in a rhythm, Kelce could have a big day. High-risk, high-reward. My money's on risk. Kelce's price tag is $3,000.

Dwayne Allen/Coby Fleener (vs Baltimore Ravens) - The Colts two-headed TE attack faces a Ravens defense that ranks 1st against opposing TEs. Even if one manages a productive game, it's essentially a coin-flip to figure out who it will be. Allen and Fleener's price tag are both $3,000.

Zach Ertz (vs St. Louis Rams) - Another casualty of Chip Kelly's spread-the-wealth offense, Ertz hasn't lived up to fantasy expectations just yet. And while better weeks lie ahead, this won't be one of them. The Rams rank 4th against opposing TEs. There are better options this week. Ertz will cost you $3,800 this week.

D/ST I Love

Philadelphia Eagles (vs St. Louis Rams) - While it's insane to hope for the Eagles to repeat their performance on defense and special teams this week, the Rams 31st-ranked offense should provide a productive day for the Philly defense. Whether it's Shaun Hill or Austin Davis at the helm on Sunday, the Eagles will produce fantasy points at their expense. Philly's D/ST costs $3,300.

Cincinnati Bengals (at New England Patriots) - The Patriots offensive line is crumbling. The offense has been anemic. Tom Brady is playing like Tom Savage. Oh, and the Bengals are coming to town. With six interceptions in three games, Cincinnati's defense is poised for another big game in New England. The Bengals D/ST will cost you $3,800.

Pittsburgh Steelers (at Jacksonville Jaguars) - I think I've made my point here. $3,500 price tag.

D/ST I Hate

New England Patriots (vs Cincinnati Bengals) - While their pass defense is top notch, the Patriots weakness lies against the run, something Giovanni Bernard and company will exploit Sunday night. And while Andy Dalton will be unpredictable as always, I think he'll avoid rewarding the Pats defense on Sunday night. New England boasts the most expensive D/ST at $4,300.

New Orleans Saints (vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers) - The Saints D/ST has the 2nd fewest fantasy points, in front of only the Jaguars. To make matters worse, Pro Bowl Safety Jairus Byrd was put on season-ending IR during the week. There could be an NFC South shootout on Sunday, avoid the Saints D/ST, valued at $2,500.

Atlanta Falcons (at New York Giants) - If you take away the Falcons drubbing of Tampa Bay, Atlanta's D/ST has combined for negative 17 points in its other three games. The Falcons have one of the worst defenses in the NFL right now, especially their run defense that's allowed eight touchdowns in four games. This game could turn into a shootout as I said earlier and that doesn't benefit the Falcons D/ST, and it definitely doesn't benefit your chance at winning $1,000,000.
