Jeremy Maclin ($7,200)

While the Chiefs' offense is much more conducive to running back success in fantasy than to wide receiver success, Jeremy Maclin is a huge part of the offense and offers huge value despite a relatively poor matchup against the Texans.

He has posted a fairly unexciting 0.70 Reception NEP per target this year, which ranks only 28th among the 54 receivers to see 75-plus targets, but what really makes him an attractive play is the insane volume he's been seeing recently.

Among all of the wide receivers to see at least five targets per game over the last six weeks, only seven were targeted on a higher percentage of their snaps played than Maclin's 17.1%. He has accounted for a ridiculous 36% of the Chiefs' targets in that span, a number that jumps to 46% in the red zone (a big part of the reason that he is averaging a touchdown per game over that span). The passing offense lives and dies with Maclin, and it gives him a fairly safe floor as well as a lot of upside.
