Steve Buchanan:

I’m going with Allen Robinson as my Captain. I think (he) gives you a much more balance lineup tonight because you can really afford some other guys. There’s so many other guys that you want to be paying up for in this matchup, and I think Robinson at $9,300 is the way to go here.

You got to remember that Tre’Davious White is going to be out of this game and out for a number of games moving forward, that’s going to force the Bills to go with a few rookie cornerbacks. And Allen Robinson finally has a quarterback that can throw to him. Good things are going to happen when Allen Robinson has a good quarterback. Should get some red-zone looks, as well. Help take the heat of Cooper Kupp a little bit here. A captain here, gives you just over $8,100 (per player) for the rest of your lineup, that’s going to be really good, too.

Steve’s Pick: Allen Robinson II ($9,300)
