Paying up for some of the stars in the league can be tough. Mohamed Salah ($11,000) and Sadio Mane ($10,500) are likely to be at the top for some time, but they both continue to produce. They can become chalky in certain FanDuel contests, but averaging more than 25 points per game is hard to ignore.

Raheem Sterling ($11,500) and David Silva ($10,500) average more than 27 points per match. Sterling is more susceptible to roster rotation, but he carries a high ceiling whenever he sees the pitch.

Romelu Lukaku ($11,500) and Aguero are strikers that fit the bill, as well. They may have a small slump somewhere in the season, but they are being given a great chance to contribute each week as leading forwards on top-shelf sides.
