Pickups of the Week

Jamaal Williams (RB) – Detroit Lions: The Lions are likely going to be without D’Andre Swift for “at least the (next) two games, coming back after the bye” according to head coach Dan Campbell.  Swift left Sunday’s game with a shoulder sprain and needs to also recover an ankle injury.  Williams has been great working alongside Swift and now takes the brute of the workload himself.  He is easily able to finish as a top-12 RB on any given week, something he did in Week 3 with the RB3 overall finish.

Khalil Herbert (RB) – Chicago Bears: David Montgomery left the Week 3 matchup with a leg/ankle injury and Herbert stepped in and absolutely dominated.  It is unclear if Monty will be out for the Week 4 game or not, but Herbert just produced the RB1 overall finish against the Texans. It would be surprising if he was not able to earn more touches or even overtake Montgomery by season’s end and he is talented enough to do so.
