Latavius Murray, RB, Oakland Raiders

FanDuel Price: $7,500
numberFire Projected Points: 13.87

Speaking of opportunity, Latavius Murray has gotten his, and it doesn't appear to be going anywhere, anytime soon. Murray is participating in 69% of his team's total offensive snaps, good for fourth among all starting running backs. Moreover, he is tied for fourth in the league for total rushing attempts with 52, and ranks 10th among all backs with at least 20 carries in terms of per-rush efficiency with a 0.07 Rushing NEP per rush.

In other words, Murray is getting the job done. And this week he gets to square up against the 29th best run defense in the Chicago Bears. Murray's price is still slightly discounted given his volume and effectiveness on the ground. His work in the passing game -- receiving nearly 4 targets per contest and catching all 11 looks he's received in the passing game thus far this season -- also adds to his floor and potential upside as well.

With a favorable matchup, and the Raiders projected as three-point favorites (thus likely to be nursing a lead), it's looking like all systems go for Murray in both tournament and cash game contests on FanDuel this weekend.
