Spencer Shrader at Steelers: Shrader shouldn’t be on the waiver wire in this many leagues. He’s posted at least 14 fantasy points in three straight weeks. The Colts’ passing game has been weak enough to force Shrader into plenty of kicking opportunities.

Harrison Mevis vs. Bills: The early total on this MNF contest is 53.5 points, meaning we should see the Rams in the red zone plenty. Mevis has missed a few kicks this season but should have a pretty safe floor in such a good game environment.
Tyler Bass at Rams: Same deal as the above section for Mevis. Weather shouldn’t impact this game in Los Angeles and the Bills should have plenty of trips to the red area.
