Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 17 | 11% (–) | 37 | Jay Cutler has two touchdown passes in consecutive games, and assuming the Bears don't simply go through the motions, he'll face a Buccaneers secondary that has allowed 28 scores through the air, tied for the sixth most in the league. | ||||
WR | 10 | 81% (+3) | 49 | Jarvis Landry continues to be a targets monster, and should have no issues with a Colts defense allowing 267 passing yards per game, which is 29th in the league. | ||||
WR | 10 | 91% (+7) | 48 | Mike Evans should see tons of targets with Vincent Jackson likely out again, but the Bears secondary has been tough this season. | ||||
RB | 0 | 23% (-4) | 2453 | Jonathan Stewart may rest again this week as the Panthers sit at 14-0, leaving Cameron Artis-Payne as the bell cow back. | ||||
RB | 7 | 7% (+2) | 130 | Joique Bell enjoyed his best rushing performance of the season last Monday and is averaging 8.1 yards per carry over his last two games heading into a matchup with the 49ers 27th ranked rush defense that surrenders 4.9 yards per carry. | ||||
TE | 6 | 72% (–) | 106 | Travis Kelce is just 41 yards shy of setting a new career high in receiving yards on the season, and faces a Browns defense Sunday that's allowed eight TDs to tight ends this season, tied for fifth in the league. | ||||
W/R/T | 0 | 11% (+2) | 2280 | Steve Johnson remains hampered by a groin injury and is questionable against the Raiders on Thursday, but if he is able to play he'll be facing a defense that's allowed 265.6 passing yards per game, fifth-worst in the league. | ||||
BN | 8 | 63% (-15) | 102 | Guessing Eddie Lacy's weekly workload has become a frivolous exercise, and facing a fourth ranked Cardinals rush defense that has only allowed two opposing rushers to top 70 yards all season is seemingly enough to suggest there's little upside for Lacy in Week 16. | ||||
BN | 5 | 9% (-1) | 142 | Coby Fleener has averaged just 22 yards per game in the previous six weeks, but has a favorable Week 16 matchup as the Indianapolis Colts meet the Miami Dolphins, who rank 27th in passing defense (264.7 ypg). | ||||
BN | 7 | 28% (+2) | 120 | Travis Benjamin caught three passes for 26 yards on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks' Legion of Boom secondary, modest production but he was still the most targeted receiver for the Cleveland Browns, and this week he faces a Kansas City Chiefs pass defense that is 17th in the NFL with 243.2 yards per game allowed through the air. | ||||
BN | 0 | 13% (–) | 2554 | |||||
BN | 5 | 14% (+2) | 195 | Shane Vereen was targeted a season-high 10 times in the loss to Carolina and found the end zone of the first time in four weeks. | ||||
BN | 4 | 13% (+1) | 217 | Mike Wallace has a catch of at least 23 yards in three straight games after not hitting that mark once in his first 11 outings, but has no more than three catches in this stretch, and his limited volume caps his appeal against a Giants' league worst secondary that's allowing 308 yards per game. | ||||
BN | 4 | 20% (–) | 1813 | Andre Johnson has fallen off the radar with just 10 catches in the last six games as the Indianapolis Colts enter their Week 16 game against the Miami Dolphins. | ||||
BN | 4 | 5% (–) | 2454 | Smith shook off some back/toe concerns and managed a pair of catches for 33 yards in a Week 15 loss but still hasn't shown any upside with starter Blaine Gabbert under center as the 49ers travel to Detroit in Week 16. | ||||
Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
