BALLER MOVE: Start in 12-Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-end QB1, SuperFlex QB2
ANALYSIS: Kirk Cousins has been playing very well for Atlanta during their recent run of wins, including an epic 500-yard performance against the Bucs in Week 5.
He was solid last week against Carolina but didn't post a big score because the Falcons ran in three of their four touchdowns against a bad Carolina run defense. Cousins has still been a reliable play with a safe floor most weeks and has a plus matchup this week against a Seattle defense that ranks just 17th in pass DVOA defense this season.
This Atlanta offense has been firing on all cylinders and Cousins is doing a great job of getting the ball to all of his playmakers - something he's been known for throughout his career. With a total of 51.5 points, this matchup with the Seahawks in Week 7 is the highest total on the slate and we should expect a lot of offensive production from both teams.

While the touchdowns aren't guaranteed, we can almost certainly expect 250 passing yards or more from Captain Kirk. He's certainly not an elite option with his lack of rushing ability, but he's a safe bet for 14-16 fantasy points if you don't have any other options.
