Ty Chandler (RB – MIN) | 140.5 ADP
There was loads of change on the high in Minnesota with Aaron Jones changing Alexander Mattison because the Vikings’ RB1 this offseason. Change was wanted after Mattison did not impress in 2023. Jones, nevertheless, is 29 years previous and has struggled to remain wholesome lately, taking part in solely 11 video games final yr as he handled persistent hamstring accidents. When Ty Chandler obtained alternatives final season he impressed with 4 top-36 weekly finishes out of the 5 video games the place he had 13+ touches. Getting a possible RB3 for a decide exterior of the highest 140 is an efficient return on funding. Whereas Jones is wholesome it could be robust to start out Chandler, however the contingent upside is effectively value it.
Darnell Mooney (WR – ATL) | 147.5 ADP

Kimani Vidal goes to need to combat for each alternative amongst a reasonably old-school teaching employees that isn’t going to reward a rookie something, however Vidal arrives to the NFL on the again of 1,861 all-purpose yards in 2023. Some might downplay that as a result of it got here at a small faculty (Troy) it’s not Vidal’s fault his opponents weren’t capable of cease him. With this backfield, it could be one to method with warning and never get too carried away with anybody concerned. At this value, although, it’s a good dart throw to take.
