Rondale Moore, Purdue Â
Moore leads all receivers in fantasy points so far this season, and the Purdue freshman could be in for another big game against a Nebraska team that has not won a game yet. The Huskers gave up 351 passing yards and three touchdowns to Colorado in the season opener, so moving the ball through the air shouldn’t be a problem. And Moore is a big-time playmaker who can break a big play at any time. Nebraska’s pass defense is not horrible, but Moore is a must-start since he’s used all over the field.
 Kalija Lipscomb, Vanderbilt Â
Fantasy football is often about picking apart certain matchups and this one is perfect. Lipscomb is by far the top target for quarterback Kyle Shurmur with 34 catches for 306 yards and four touchdowns. He’s only averaging 9 yards per reception, so that’s concerning but he should be able to dominate Tennessee State’s defense. The Tigers gave up 393 passing yards and three touchdowns to Eastern Illinois last weekend. Vanderbilt should be able to throw at will against this defense.
Tylan Wallace, Oklahoma State Â
Wallace is by far the top receiver for the Cowboys with 26 receptions for 442 yards and two touchdowns. With top target Jalen McCleskey deciding to redshirt and transfer, Wallace should become an even bigger factor in Oklahoma State’s offense. The Cowboys were not sharp in a loss to Texas Tech last weekend, but Kansas gave up three passing touchdowns to Baylor a week ago. Oklahoma State should get back on track, and quarterback Taylor Cornelius will be looking to Wallace to move the ball downfield.
David Sills V, West Virginia Â
Texas Tech’s defense did a phenomenal job last weekend against Oklahoma State’s passing game, but my contention is that West Virginia’s attack is far superior and could be way more difficult to stop. Quarterback Will Grier is better than Oklahoma State’s Taylor Cornelius and West Virginia’s receivers get the edge, too, especially Sills, who had three touchdown catches against a good Kansas State team last week. Texas Tech gave up 336 passing yards and two TDs to Ole Miss earlier this season and the Mountaineers’ pass game could be even more difficult to stop. Sills is Grier’s most-reliable target, so he’ll look to him often in Lubbock.
Greg Dortch, Wake Forest Â
Dortch has 34 catches for 392 yards so far this season, but only one touchdown. That should change this weekend because Rice’s pass defense is so poor and the Demon Deacons are looking to get back on track. After back-to-back losses to Boston College and Notre Dame, Wake Forest should lean on Dortch in its uptempo pass attack since Rice is giving up more than 327 passing yards per game and has allowed 14 passing TDs so far this season. Look for the Demon Deacons receiver to put up big numbers.
