Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley has failed to eclipse 50 rushing yards in each of his last two games, and will face another hurdle this Sunday against the Broncos. Denver is allowing 99.3 rushing yards per game this season-just one of 11 teams to average under 100. They also stifled Bengals RB Chase Brown on Monday, keeping him to 40 yards on 10 carries with his longest attempt going for six yards. However, Philly does have a much stronger offensive line than Cincinnati does, and Barkley averages more yards per carry (3.1) than Brown (2.3). Even with a couple things going against him, Barkley remains a definitive RB1 for Week 5.

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson is a locked-in WR1 for this weekend's home outing against the Dallas Cowboys. The Ohio State alum has been the most productive New York pass-catcher, and it isn't close. Wilson leads the Jets in targets (38), receptions (27), yards (311), and touchdowns (three), with the next closest "receiver" being Breece Hall and his 13/108 line (19 targets). He is once again set for an enormous target share as New York hosts a vulnerable Dallas defense in Week 5. The Cowboys' defensive unit has been sieve-like thus far, yielding the most total yards (420.5) and second-most points (33.0) per game to opponents. With Dallas' inability to stop the opposition, and Wilson being the most consistent Jets' weapon, he's in store for yet another blow-up spot. The 25-year-old is RotoBaller's PPR WR5 ahead of this weekend's slate of action.
