Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2025:

 

FantasyFeud Top Quarterback Plays

Drew Brees (vs TB, $159,200)

Drew Brees is going to be one of the best QB options this week, especially with his great matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Marcus Mariota made them look like a joke last week, and Brees is a much better QB than Mariota is. Brandin Cooks had a pretty bad weeks considering all the hype around him before the season started, but he should be able to turn things around this week. Mark Ingram and Khiry Robinson did not look good on the ground, but Ingram does provide a ton of value in the receiving game, which ultimately helps Brees. Expect Brees to throw the ball early and often on the Bucs this week.  -Jason

Sam Bradford (vs DAL, $138,700)

Bradford looked a bit shaky in his first regular season game with the Eagles, but he worked his way through a slow start and finished the game against the Falcons on a high note. He threw the ball 52 times in his matchup against Atlanta, and you can expect something similar this week. The matchup against Dallas isn't ideal, but the Eagles offense can make the best defenses in the NFL look like JV high schoolers. Bradford's floor should be around the 13.44 FPs he scored against the Falcons. He'll likely get in the end zone more than once this week, and his ceiling is as high as any quarterback in the NFL.  - Justin

 

FantasyFeud Top Running Back Plays

Todd Gurley (at WAS, $35,000)

Todd Gurley is minimally priced over at FantasyFeud due to his injury, but the Rams have yet to rule him out for their game against the Washington Redskins. Granted, if he does play, he will be on a snap count. However, he should be able to hit value even with that snap count. The Washington Redskins do not have one of the better defenses in the league, and Gurley should be able to shred them if he decides to play. He is currently practicing with the first-string offense, and Jeff Fisher said that he is up-to-date with his conditioning and knowledge of the playbook. He will likely be a game-time decision, but he may be worth the risk, especially if you are looking to beat me, haha.  - Jason

Carlos Hyde (at PIT, $115,300)

Carlos Hyde broke out last week with 182 total yards and 2 touchdowns. That game was no fluke, as Hyde was one of the top running backs coming out of the 2014 draft class. The 49ers will likely lean on him again this week, and the Steelers are going to have to honor the threat of the read option with Kaepernick at quarterback. Keep in mind, backup level talent Dion Lewis totaled 120 yards against the Steelers last week. Hyde's price is entirely too low, and while he may be owned at an extremely high rate, it would be silly not to use him this week.   - Justin

 

FantasyFeud Top Wide Receiver Plays

Sammy Watkins (vs NE, $76,200)

Sammy Watkins is one of my favorite options this week at the WR position. He gets a good matchup against the New England Patriots, who looked terrible on the defensive side of the ball against the Pittsburgh Steelers last week. Watkins caught a total of zero passes last week, so the Buffalo Bills are probably going to make it a point to make sure he gets his receptions this week. FantasyFeud has him priced rather low, so he will allow you to spend your money elsewhere. Granted, the Buffalo Bills QB situation is pretty terrible, but Watkins should still be a big part of their offense, the Bills will be playing from behind, and the Patriots are not one of the better defenses in the league.  - Jason

Davante Adams (vs SEA, $98,700)

Plenty of people jumped off the Davante Adams train after his 4 catch, 59 yard first week. Those numbers don't tell the complete story, though. First, the Bears controlled the clock the entire game, and Green Bay's offense saw limited series. That means that the potential opportunities for Adams decreased as the Bears continuously ran down the clock. Second, even though Cobb and Jones received all the hype after the game, Adams actually led Green Bay in targets. He is deadly with the ball in his hands, and Green Bay will likely game plan him away from Sherman this week. Adams' price is too low, and you may be able to get him as a somewhat contrarian play this week.  - Justin

 

FantasyFeud Top Wide Receiver Plays

Jordan Reed (vs STL, $83,400)

Jordan Reed is going to benefit from the injury to Desean Jackson, as he did last week against the Miami Dolphins. He was targeted 11 times (a team high) and caught 7 balls for 63 yards and a touchdown. He should see a similar amount of targets this week against the Rams, and he should be able to put up similar numbers. Kirk Cousins loves to throw Reed the ball, and he is one of their top receiving options. The Redskins will likely be losing the game, so Cousins will need to throw a lot. Everything adds up to Reed having another great week.  - Jason

Rob Gronkowski (at BUF, $149,100)

Let's not beat around the bush here. Anytime Gronk is on the field, he's the best tight end in the NFL. He gets a terrible matchup against the Bills, who nearly shut down Andrew Luck and company, but I doubt they'll be able to stop the Gronk. Rex Ryan recently said that he has plans of triple covering Gronk at times, but I'm calling your bluff, Rex! Gronk is always a threat in the red zone, and as always, he can be used in all leagues.  - Justin
