Coming off two straight double-digit performances, Joique Bell has been playing really well. While Bell has always split carries with Reggie Bush, because of Bush’s ankle injury, Bell has been getting the starting carries and he has played well in recent weeks. In Week 8, Bell will have a ridiculously favorable matchup when the Detroit Lions face off against the Atlanta Falcons in London.

With the ability to beat you in both the running and passing game, Bell’s talents will be on full display on Sunday. With injuries to Bush and Calvin Johnson, the bulk of the Lions’ offensive production has come from Golden Tate and Bell. With Bush and Johnson likely to be sidelined for another week or two, there is no reason to be weary of placing Bell in your FanDuel lineup. Currently on the daily fantasy sports website, Bell is being listed at $7300. While that number is high to invest in a running back, Bell is a guy that will give you RB1 production, despite being below star backs like Le’Veon Bell and Marshawn Lynch.

With the salary cap being so crucial in FanDuel play, finding players that will give you great production and cost little is difficult, but in Week 8, Bell is in for a huge performance. To help Matt Stafford, Bell should be given a lot of carries, and given that Detroit is playing the worst defense and the worst rushing defense in the league, it wouldn’t be a stretch for Bell to have 100 rushing yards and a touchdown on Sunday. Drafting Bell to your team on Sunday will be an extremely wise decision as he will greatly benefit your lineup.
