Brandon Aiyuk, 56.5 Receiving Yards (HIGHER)

Brandon Aiyuk has been nothing but amazing in the three games where he has been fully healthy. Becoming the WR1 for the San Francisco 49ers has opened up a lot for the young receiver and the offense. In Week 1, Aiyuk recorded 129 receiving yards on eight receptions, and 148 receiving yards in Week 3 on six receptions. Week 2 was skewed a bit as Aiyuk had a shoulder injury by halftime that started sidelining him in the second half.

He is projected for 66 receiving yards versus the Dallas Cowboys and a -106 (51.22%) implied total of hitting the over using the Proptimizer.

Tony Pollard, 55.5 Rushing  Yards (HIGHER)

Taking control of the backfield this season, Tony Pollard has been as consistent as anyone can hope for. Rushing for over 70 yards in the first three games, he's projected for another 70 yards Sunday Night. He is holding a 57% rush attempt rate while having a 67% snap rate.

While the Dallas Cowboys have basically dominated every opponent besides Arizona, Pollard has been able to get more groundwork. The same could be in line versus the 49ers as the Cowboys will want to control the clock and keep the 49ers offense off of the field.

Fred Warner, 8 tackles + Assists (HIGHER)

Using the Proptimizer, Fred Warner has an implied total of -108 (51.92%) to hit the over. Warner has been a huge part of this defense. Dating back to last year's playoff matchup, he recorded 9 combined tackles and assists. So far this season, he has hit that mark in three of the four games.

Brandin Cooks, 39.5 Receiving Yards (LOWER)

As long as Underdog Fantasy keeps offering Brandin Cooks totals, we'll be taking the under. While he was four for four in targets last week, Cooks found himself under the total once again. He has now recorded 22, 17, and 27 receiving yards in the three games that he has played in.

He is projected for 37 yards versus the tough 49ers defense which has him at +102 odds to hit the over. He'll continue to be a free square until he can hit the over and consistently.

Other Plays:  Dak Prescott 242.5 passing yards (HIGHER), Christian McCaffrey 19.45 Fantasy Points (HIGHER)
