Doug Martin - RB, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
In the two weeks prior to the Week 6 bye, Doug Martin looked as good as he has since his rookie season. Over the last two weeks, the Redskins run defense has been shredded to the tune of 346 YDs and 5.2 yards per carry. This is aligning too perfectly for Martin not to have a big game.
Drew Brees - QB, New Orleans Saints
Drew Brees hasn't been the superstar quarterback fantasy owners have become accustomed to in years past. But this Sunday's showdown in Indianapolis has the makings of a shootout. Neither team can play defense, and the Colts have surrendered at least 15.2 fantasy points to quarterbacks this season, including at least 18.6 in the last four contests. Expect a big day from Brees.
Todd Gurley - RB, St. Louis Rams
The legend of Todd Gurley continues to grow strong. In what many were predicting to be a rough season for the rookie, Gurley has racked up 305 rushing yards in the past two games and looks like an absolute stud RB1. On top of it all, he faces an awful Cleveland run defense that has allowed 131.5 rushing yards per game this season and 331 over the last two games. Keep rolling with Gurley.
Julius Thomas - TE, Jacksonville Jaguars
Following a dud in his first game back from injury, Julius Thomas was right back to his normal TE1 ways in Week 6. The Bills haven't been great against tight ends this year and the Jaguars seem committed to feeding Thomas early and often. Start Julius Thomas again and expect him to get into the endzone at least once.
