Diontae Johnson (DK 10,400 | FD 13,000)

Big Ben’s arm has really limited the Steelers receivers on the season but Johnson has still put up numbers. Johnson has been Big Ben’s favorite target all season. He has 92 receptions on the season and continues to get peppered with targets. The targets will continue to go his way and Johnson will continue to put together good games. Look for Johnson to have another solid game tonight.

Rashard Higgins (DK 5,600 | FD 6,500)

Higgins had a very solid season last year going for 599 yards and four touchdowns. This year has been a huge disappointment for Higgins. He only has 267 yards and one touchdown on the season. However, he has been getting more involved the last couple of weeks. He’s played 79 percent and 65 percent of snaps the last two games. In those two games, he’s had eight receptions for 82 receiving yards. He’s a great value play in this game.
