Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 210.54 | 69% (+8) | 2 | Blake Bortles and Jacksonville Jaguars still have an outside shot of making the playoffs in their Week 16 game against the New Orleans Saints, who rank 30th in passing defense (276.4 ypg). | ||||
QB | 230.07 | 34% (–) | 22 | Philip Rivers threw for over 300 yards and multiple touchdowns last week for just the second time in his last six games, but faces a Raiders defense Thursday that's allowed 265.6 passing yards per game, fifth-worst in the league. | ||||
WR | 40.13 | 77% (-3) | 68 | Randall Cobb has not caught a touchdown pass in four straight games and has been held to 40 yards or less in three of his last five outings, making him difficult to rely against the Cardinals, even with corner Tyrann Mathieu sidelined by a knee injury. | ||||
WR | 29.80 | 23% (-2) | 134 | Marvin Jones led the Cincinnati Bengals with four receptions for 89 yards on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers, showing good chemistry with back-up quarterback A.J. McCarron, but in Week 16 he faces a Denver Broncos defense that leads the NFL with only 200.0 passing yards allowed per game. | ||||
WR | 41.96 | 78% (-5) | 64 | Fitzgerald's recent slide coincides with the emergence and return to health of wideouts Michael Floyd and John Brown and the veteran wideout hasn't scored in six weeks and hasn't topped 70 yards receiving in his last four and may have another tough draw as the slot receiver against the Packers in Week 16. | ||||
WR | 49.21 | 96% (-2) | 46 | Julio Jones will need to play up to every bit of his ability against Josh Norman and the Panthers if the Falcons are to win on Sunday. | ||||
RB | 35.53 | 46% (-4) | 111 | Giovani Bernard started and got the lion share of the carries early against a purportedly weak San Francisco 49ers run defense, but was unable to do much to the tune of 18 total touches for 51 yards vs. competitor Jeremy Hill's 19 touches for 31 yards but two touchdowns, and this week he faces the number one rush yardage defense in the NFL in the Denver Broncos that allow only 79.9 yards per game on the ground. | ||||
RB | 44.76 | 79% (-8) | 55 | Lamar Miller's carries have been difficult to predict this season, but if he gets the touches, he should be able to find room to roam against a Colts defense allowing 123.8 rushing yards per game. | ||||
RB | 27.98 | 22% (–) | 158 | Ronnie Hillman saw a majority of carries last week but was unproductive with them, and now faces a Bengals defense Monday that ranks eighth in rushing yards allowed (93.2 per game). | ||||
TE | 22.49 | 33% (-7) | 124 | Richard Rodgers saw only four targets last week in a favorable matchup, something he has again this Sunday against a Cardinals defense that has allowed an average of 73.3 yards and four touchdowns to opposing tight ends since their Week 9 bye. | ||||
TE | 23.00 | 13% (-2) | 141 | Jacob Tamme struggled last time out against the Panthers (four receptions, 26 yards) and is coming off a no-catch performance last week, making him a player to avoid this week. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 20% (-1) | 2349 | T.J. Yeldon is dealing with a knee injury leading up to Week 16 when the Jacksonville Jaguars face the New Orleans Saints, who rank last in both rushing yards per attempt (5.1) and per game (137.1). | ||||
BN | 22.66 | 3% (–) | 139 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 18% (-2) | 1832 | Tyler Eifert remains in the league's concussion protocol and as of Tuesday has been unable to take part in football activities, so his availability remains very questionable for Monday Night's huge showdown against the Denver Broncos. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 18% (–) | 1929 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 3% (–) | 2072 | Rishard Matthews remains sidelined with rib/chest issues. | ||||
BN | 181.81 | 24% (–) | 20 | Ryan Tannehill has just two touchdown passes in his last three games, but faces an Indianapolis Colts defense that has allowed 28 throwing scorers in 2015, which is tied for 22nd in the NFL. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 9% (–) | 2402 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 21% (-2) | 2254 | Vincent Jackson is unlikely to play this week as he continues to deal with a sprained MCL that could hold him out for the rest of the season. | ||||
BN | 0.52 | 1% (–) | 2718 | |||||
BN | 19.97 | 8% (+1) | 208 | Devin Funchess went for three receptions and 25 yards the last time these two teams met and unless he catches a touchdown, doesn’t have much value to fantasy owners. | ||||
BN | 41.53 | 53% (+1) | 61 | Floyd led the Arizona passing game in catches (five) and receiving yards (70) but failed to find the end zone in a Week 15 win but should benefit from a closer game in a Week 16 game against the Packers. | ||||

K | 8.09 | 11% (–) | 193 | Caleb Sturgis had just field goal in the loss to Arizona, the fifth time in six games he's been held to single field goal or fewer. | ||||
K | 6.87 | 2% (–) | 1817 | Zuerlein continues to struggle in an ineffective offense despite the Week 15 outburst from the Rams and a Week 16 road tilt against the Seahawks won't give him many chances to make an impact. | ||||
BN | 7.39 | 6% (–) | 233 | Dawson continues to struggle to put up points for an ineffective offense though a Week 16 road game against the Lions figures to offer a brief reprieve. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 3% (–) | 2501 | |||||
