With Walker (ankle) missing his fifth game of the season, Charbonnet ($8,400) is a must-play for Thursday’s Showdown slate on DraftKings. With Walker inactive this season, Charbonnet has produced 24.6 FPTS per game as Seattle’s starting back.
In these games, Charbonnet averaged 15.5 carries per game – which was 80.6% of the Seahawks’ running back carries – while logging 84.8% of the snaps. The 23-year-old saw 12 redzone rushes and as a receiver, Charbonnet saw a target 17% of his routes while running a route on 75% of his team’s dropbacks.
Charbonnet has produced an excellent 0.45 FPTS per snap with Walker inactive and he should thrive against this Bears defense that is giving up the sixth-most yards per rush this season (4.7). On the DraftKings Sportsbook, Charbonnet’s prop for rushing+receiving yards is set at a high 95.5 yards and he is a huge -195 favorite to score a touchdown, which are easily the best odds for a score in this Thursday Night Football matchup.
Priced as just the seventh-most expensive player for this Showdown slate, Charbonnet is the best play on the board and a no-brainer pick to roster as your captain.
