Messiah Burch RB

Messiah Burch ran 28 times for 172 yards in Buffalo's 25-18 win over Massachusetts on Oct. 17, good for 17.2 CollegeFFB points. He should keep getting chances in the Buffalo backfield, having averaged 22 carries a game in the 3 games before that, and he has been a steady producer, averaging 12.2 points a game this season. At $6M, he looks like a useful RB option when Buffalo faces Bowling Green, which allows the 8th-most yards per carry in FBS, on Oct. 24.

Clint Walker TE

Clint Walker caught 7 passes for 45 yards and 2 touchdowns in Buffalo's 25-18 win over Massachusetts on Oct. 17, good for 23.5 CollegeFFB points. At $5.4M, the Buffalo tight end has averaged 7.9 points a game this season and looks lined up for more chances when Buffalo faces Bowling Green on Oct. 24.

Chase Sowell WR

Chase Sowell posted 11 catches for 151 yards and 1 touchdown in Penn State's 21-18 loss at Michigan on Oct. 17, good for 32.1 CollegeFFB points. Both the catches and the yards were career bests, and he continues to shine in his No. 1 receiving role, according to Penn State Nittany Lions On SI. Averaging 14.7 points a game this season, he could add to that output when Penn State hosts Purdue on Oct. 31, at $5.9M.

The catch total was a career best, according to Penn State Athletics. Penn State visits Michigan on Oct. 17, and Rappleyea, averaging 8.7 points a game this season, could remain busy at $4.7M.
