Outside of his 80-yard touchdown catch in Week 3, C.J. Spiller has been something of a disappointment for fantasy owners. His salary this week reflects that, and there are 51 running backs with higher price tags this week.

While I don't normally target a Thursday game very heavily, this Saints/Falcons game has an over/under of 51.5, the second highest of the week. There should be lots of scoring on both sides of the ball, and you're going to want some exposure to it.

Spiller has proven time and time again that he has the ability to (admittedly inconsistently) blow up for big games, and I like the chances it happens this week. The Falcons are giving up the most fantasy points to opposing running backs (28.3 points per game), and have been especially weak to receiving backs, giving up 9.8 receptions and 83 receiving yards per game to backs.
