Market Share Report: Christine Michael's Stock Takes a Hit

Red-Zone Market Shares

1. Devontae Booker's Concerns Come with Upside

Pretty much everything that could go wrong for Devontae Booker in Week 8 did. He fumbled early in the game and suffered an injury, both things that could lead to reduced playing time for the rookie in his first game without C.J. Anderson.

He still had 19 of 22 running-back carries and played 83% of the snaps. The world is not, in fact, collapsing around us.

On top of that, Booker was heavily involved in the red zone. He had seven of eight red zone carries, five of which came inside the 10-yard line. Booker added 3 targets in the red zone, giving him 10 of 14 total opportunities once the team was in position to strike. Considering it could have been catastrophic, Booker comes out of this one smelling like roses.

The Denver Broncos are on the road the next two weeks for matchups with the Oakland Raiders and New Orleans Saints. Even while being away from home -- a less desirable situation for running backs -- these are the two worst rush defenses in the league, according to numberFire's schedule-adjusted metrics. You're going to want to check out Booker again in DFS, and there's still time to buy in season-long before that window fully closes.

2. Welcome Back, Tyler Eifert

It turns out that the Cincinnati Bengals really freaking missed Tyler Eifert. But they welcomed that bad boy back to a full role with open arms on Sunday.

Eifert tied a career high with 12 targets, finishing second on the team behind A.J. Green, who had 18. The 102 receiving yards were the second-most of Eifert's career, and he played 84% of the snaps. He's back, and he's ready to destroy souls once again.

As you might expect, all of this translated into the red zone. The Bengals threw two times inside the 20, but both of those went Eifert's direction, one of which turned into a 15-yard touchdown strike. Eifert had 15 red-zone targets last year in 13 games, so this is no new thing for him. It's just what he does.

The Bengals are on a bye in Week 9, but once they come back, Eifert's going to be a big part of the offense again. Not only is that great for him, but it's also huge for Andy Dalton, who thrived when targeting Eifert last year. You'll want to target Eifert in DFS and via trades in season-long, but this entire offense could make some noise from Week 10 on.
