Recap
Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 23 | 4% (+1) | 8 | Brian Hoyer remaied in the NFL concussion protocol early in the practice week for Week 17 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, but head coach Bill O'Brien said he will start if medically cleared. | ||||
WR | 14 | 90% (-1) | 72 | Demaryius Thomas is listed as questionable Sunday against the Chargers due to a hamstring injury, and despite a favorable matchup against a soft Chargers defense he could see limited snaps as the Broncos prepare for the postseason. | ||||
WR | 12 | 24% (–) | 110 | Boldin managed just 27 yards receiving in a Week 16 loss to the Lions and doesn't offer much value outside of PPR formats given the conservative nature of the 49ers offense as a Week 17 matchup against the Rams doesn't appear to offer much upside. | ||||
WR | 14 | 53% (+1) | 91 | Jordan Matthews had 100+ yards and a touchdown for the second straight game and now has four scores in the past five games. | ||||
RB | 25 | 87% (+1) | 2 | Devonta Freeman went for 100 yards rushing and 56 receiving in the Falcons’ last matchup with the Saints and should break the 1,000-yard mark rushing for the season. | ||||
RB | 12 | 70% (–) | 56 | Charcandrick West was unimpressive in Week 16's win over the Browns, but should again see the majority of backfield touches Sunday against the Raiders as the Chiefs try to win the AFC West. | ||||
TE | 9 | 20% (+2) | 93 | Tyler Eifert has completed the NFL's concussion protocol and is confident that he will play on Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens, who held Eifert without a reception in their first meeting back in Week 3. | ||||
W/R | 14 | 46% (–) | 84 | Kamar Aiken led the Baltimore Ravens in receiving in Week 16 for the third time in four weeks, and takes his role as the clear number one receiver for the Ravens into the season finale against a Cincinnati Bengals pass defense that has allowed 246.3 yards per game (20th in NFL) but only 17 touchdown passes (tied for third in the NFL). | ||||
BN | 9 | 12% (-1) | 106 | Will Tye failed to make the most out of Odell Backham's absence with just three catches for 28 yards but gets an juicy matchup for the finale. | ||||
BN | 16 | 17% (-1) | 38 | Jameis Winston has made huge strides since his four interception outing in his first meeting with the Panthers, but their voracious defense will continue to terrorize him. | ||||
BN | 17 | 11% (–) | 34 | Jay Cutler faces a Lions defense that has given up at least two touchdown passes in seven of their last nine games, but Cutler's potential could be tied to wide receiver Alshon Jeffery's hamstring injury more than the matchup. | ||||
BN | 6 | 10% (–) | 203 | Spencer Ware returned from a rib injury last week but saw limited touches, and should again be behind Charcandrick West on the depth chart Sunday against the Raiders. | ||||
BN | 0 | 3% (–) | 2408 | |||||
BN | 8 | 2% (–) | 132 | McDonald rebounded from a couple of costly drops in Week 15 in leading the San Francisco passing game in catches (five), targets (seven) and receiving yards (61) and finding the end zone in Week 16 and has emerged as quarterback Blaine Gabbert's favorite target which makes him a sneaky play in daily formats against a Rams defense that has surrendered the 22nd-most points to tight ends this season. | ||||
Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Kickers | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
K | 9 | 48% (–) | 136 | Josh Brown was limited to just one field-goal attempt in the blowout loss to the Redskins but should find the matchup against the Eagles much more favorable. | ||||
