Sometimes choosing your fantasy football squad is like choosing which game you play if you visit the casino. Not only do you, as a fantasy football owner, have to decide how much to spend on a player, but you also have to calculate your expected payout in terms of fantasy points.

You do that based on odds, predicting your floor and maximizing upside, both at the casino and managing your fantasy football lineup on a weekly basis. With that in mind, and through three weeks, you may want to consider playing the now low stakes game of nickel slots, which has been paying out handsomely.

That nickel slot machine is actually Cleveland Browns slot wide receiver quick release. Part of the reason for Hawkins' strong Reception NEP performance in spite of not finding the end zone thus far is that he is tied for sixth in the NFL with 14 first downs. As you can see from that list, Hawkins is in pretty select company.

Hawkins is the perfect PPR wideout who should continue to see touches in the Browns offense. As it stands today, our projections see him catching more than 60 passes this year.
