BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: QB2
ANALYSIS: As Minnesota comes off their Week 13 bye, Joshua Dobbs remains the starter for the Vikings for a Week 14 date with the Las Vegas Raiders. He's very much in play as a streamer.

Dobbs suffered a huge letdown in Minnesota's Week 12 loss to the Chicago Bears, but we should remember that he had scored 16 or more fantasy points in five games -- topping 22 in three of them -- before his Monday night meltdown against the Bears.
He has five rushing touchdowns in his last six games and routinely rushes for over 40 yards. Oh, and he will be throwing passes to Justin Jefferson, T.J. Hockenson, and Jordan Addison. There is some remote risk he could get pulled if he struggles, but he brings the most upside of any streaming option this week against a Raiders secondary that's allowing a healthy 7.01 yards per attempt to opposing QBs this season. Fantasy managers can consider him a QB2 who possesses upside for more this week.
