Fantasy outlook
The anchor
Joseph Williams has 108 CollegeFFB points through five games, and the gap between him and the next Colorado option is wide. He ranks 22nd among FBS wideouts in CollegeFFB points, yet at $6.3M he's priced well below most receivers producing at that level.
Riser or value
Isaac Wilson gives you a quarterback at a bargain. His 16.5-point outing in Week 5 showed what he can do, and at $4.6M the Buffaloes' passer carries a projection of about 11 against Utah. That's useful production from a price that leaves room for stars elsewhere.
This week
No. 11 Utah is 5-0 and visits Folsom Field on Oct 17, with Colorado a 15.2-point underdog. Williams projects for about 24, a little above the nearly 22 he averages, so he belongs in your lineup even against an unbeaten opponent.
Player news
Colorado wide receiver Kam Perry is back on the injured list, according to Colorado Buffaloes On SI. The outlet reported Perry missed time earlier this year with an injury and said it is unclear whether a setback with that same injury is the cause.
