The Browns recently signed Jordan Wilkins, which could signal they want to start limiting reps of either Demetric Felton, John Kelly or both. My guess is one Felton considering he’s been playing well (15 rush attempts for 77 yards in two games), and he’s been with the team for a couple of seasons now.

With backup Jerome Ford still out with a hamstring injury, the Browns will likely want to be a bit more careful with their potential number No. 3 back, which could be Felton. I’m projecting him closer to 22.5 rush yards, and I like the fact this pick is focused on his rushing yards because he could end up with 1-2 receptions in limited action.

Pick: Demetric Felton Less Than 29.5 Rushing Yards (7/10)

Rashaad Penny

Less Than 30.5 Rushing Yards (7/10)

Penny surprisingly saw a ton of work last week, rushing nine times for 34 yards. The Eagles may be rotating their RBs based on game, so we could see Kenneth Gainwell and Boston Scott make their preseason debuts tonight, with D'Andre Swift and Penny seeing less work or possibly even sitting out. I expect Trey Sermon to see the bulk of the work for the Eagles tonight, with Penny only seeing a handful of carries, tops.

There's still a ton of uncertainty here, which makes it real difficult to set a median projection for Penny (he might not even play), but I like the value we are getting here.

Pick: Rashaad Penny Less Than 30.5 Rushing Yards (7/10)

Greg Ward

Less Than 27.5 Receiving Yards (7/10)

By Sean Koerner

Greg Ward managed to erupt for a 5/53/0 receiving line last week before leaving the game due to cramps. He’s been with the Eagles for three seasons now, so he’s not a player they necessarily need to evaluate.

We will likely see Tyrie Cleveland, Joseph Ngata and Jadon Haselwood play most of the game, and possibly even see Devon Allen or Olamide Zaccheaus make their preseason debuts, which would make the WR room a bit more crowded this week. Ward saw an Average Depth of Target of 4.0 last week, which means he could need three or more receptions to clear this.

I’m projecting his median closer to 22.5 but with all three picks tonight, he has a wide range of outcomes.

Pick: Greg Ward Less Than 27.5 Receiving Yards (7/10)
