Lemon's 80% route share and Steward's vulnerable coverage offer value despite Eagles QB concerns.

Lemon is averaging only 0.22 fantasy points per route run but has run routes on almost 80% of dropbacks this season, providing significant volume opportunity. This week he faces Reddy Steward (CB, DAL) in an NFC East battle; Steward is targeted on almost 18% of routes run against him and allows 0.38 fantasy points per route run. While the Eagles' loss of Jalen Hurts raises concerns about passing volume, Lemon represents good value and a fortune-favors-the-brave pick given the soft matchup and tough slate elsewhere.
