No. 5 Will Fuller
Team: Notre Dame
Position: Wide Receiver
Matchup: vs. Ohio State (Fiesta Bowl)
Price: $6,700
Put Him in Your Lineup: Fuller is Notre Dame's best player on offense. He is averaging 22.2 points and should be able to hit that mark against Ohio State. Notre Dame will need to involve him heavily in their offense in order to defeat Ohio State. (Getty)

No. 4 James Washington
Team: Oklahoma State
Position: Wide Receiver
Matchup: vs. Ole Miss (Sugar Bowl)
Price: $6,500
Put Him in Your Lineup: Washington has had 25 DraftKings points in five of the last six games. The Ole Miss defense is not as good as it has been in years past and Washington will be able to make plays throughout the Sugar Bowl. The over-under for this game is set at 68.5 and the game will be a shootout. This is good news for Washington who is one of the most dynamic playmakers in college football (Getty)

No. 3 Samaje Perine
Team: Oklahoma Sooners
Position: Running Back
Matchup: vs. Clemson Tigers (Orange Bowl)
Price: $7,300
Put Him in Your Lineup: Perine is coming off a 30 point performance in the ACC championship. He should be able to have some luck against the Clemson defense and offers a great value for where he is priced. (Getty)

No. 2 J.T. Barrett
Team: Ohio State
Position: Quarterback
Matchup: vs. Notre Dame (Fiesta Bowl)
Price: $8,300
Put Him in Your Lineup: Ohio State's offense should put up points in this matchup. It is the last game with the core group of Buckeyes players together. Barrett offers the ability to get you points on the ground and through the air as we saw with his 43 point performance against Michigan. He has a solid matchup against Notre Dame. (Getty)

No. 1 Dalvin Cook
Team: Florida State
Position: Running Back
Matchup: vs. Houston (Peach Bowl)
Price: $8,800
Put Him in Your Lineup: Cook comes with a steep price tag but is well worth it. He is averaging over 30 points a game on DraftKings. Houston's defense will have no answer for Cook which is good news if he is in your lineup. (Getty)
