Michael Crabtree, WR, Baltimore Ravens

Price: $5,400

Michael Crabtree's value sunk with Lamar Jackson making his first NFL start last week, as Jackson threw the ball only 19 times while rushing 27 times.

Crabtree saw only three targets in that game, marking a season-low after he averaged 8.4 per game over his first nine games of the season. There is "a chance" that Joe Flacco returns for Week 12, which would make Crabtree a steal at this price point.

Like Gore, Crabtree has been inefficient this year (averaging 8.9 FanDuel points per game with Flacco playing), but volume is at the core of fantasy football value, and that's something Crabtree offers no shortage of when Flacco plays.

This week's matchup is also good enough that, even if it's Lamar Jackson starting, Crabtree is still in play. The Oakland Raiders have been abysmal against the pass this season, ranking dead-last in Adjusted Defensive Passing NEP per play.
