At first glance, this slate is gross. Not a lot to hang your hat on. But chalk will form anyway—because chalk always forms—and the funny part is that the “safe” plays won’t be much more dependable than the pivots. That’s when things get fun for us. When the field can’t tell the difference between stability and wishful thinking, it opens the door for ceiling plays to blow past ownership and tilt the entire slate.
Some of these are not for the faint of heart. These are players I’ll be mixing into my rosters to differentiate from the masses while adding correlation. Keep this stuff out of your cash games for god’s sake.

We know Buffalo needs opposing stimulation to get this game environment moving. If Aaron Rodgers takes a minute to let Metcalf get loose downfield, Josh Allen may have to step into the phone booth and throw on the cape. If that happens, Shakir benefits from the boosted volume he needs to hit a usable number.
Metcalf (11.1%), Shakir (9.6%)
Cheaper, micro-owned version of the above. Toss this pairing into those rosters where you’re paying up for the chalk and need a volatility boost without the salary hit. When you’re throwing darts, you might as well start with the slate’s highest Vegas totals.
Austin (1.9%), Davis (1.0%)
