Quarterbacks
Nick Starkel (DK $7,700; FD $9,700) San Jose State – On a slate with not a ton of viable Quarterbacks, Starkel’s star is shining the brightest. He just announced this week that he will be returning to this Spartans offense next season. San Jose State is undefeated this season for good reason. This offense can be pretty dynamic. Starkel has at least 2 TD in every game that he’s completed this season, including two 400+ yard efforts. They’ll run to set up the pass and that’s always one of those worries that the TDs will come on the ground. The good news is he’ll be facing the awful pass defense of Ball State. Ball State is allowing 295.9 YPG through the air in the freaking MAC conference. There aren’t many capable pass offenses in that conference. Starkel is a lock for me and I’d actually make sure to pair him with both of his top receivers.
