 RB - Joseph Randle, Dal at Phi ($23) - The inevitable happened in the Dallas backfield in Week 1, which is that Randle outplayed Darren McFadden. Randle also received 19 touches (12 more than Run-DMC), establishing himself clearly as the lead back, even if some measure of a platoon system will remain a constant. Assuming another workload that will push 20 touches, I like Randle's upside potential in a game that Vegas pegs to easily be the highest scoring matchup of the week (55.5 O/U). With Dez Bryant out for several weeks, I expect Dallas to lean even more on the running game, and also try to utilize Randle (did you see that sweet one-handed, on-the-run catch he made in Week 1?) and Lance Dunbar in the passing game (Philly was especially susceptible to RBs in the passing game last season). With something like 65-75 rushing yards and 35-40 receiving yards, I can see Randle reaching the century mark in yards from scrimmage for the second consecutive week.
WR - Steve Smith Sr, Bal at Oak ($22) - Smith was a sit last week for the obvious reason of facing a Denver defense with a fantastic pass rush and two excellent cover corners (Chris Harris and Aqib Talib). With that set-up, and Smith being the clear top threat in the Baltimore passing game, I felt the Broncos could easily devise a plan to put the clamps on him. This week, though, the set-up is a thing of beauty for Smith, as Oakland is decimated by injuries in the secondary (Nate Allen, Charles Woodson, D.J. Hayden). With inexperience rampant in the Raiders pass defense this week, I can easily envision Smith blowing the top of the coverage at least a couple times.
