Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 22.22 | 67% (-6) | 6 | Palmer's off-night (274 yards, one touchdown) may have sunk some playoff hopes but a pair of costly drops by wideout John Brown contributed to the cause greatly and he figures to get back on track in what should be a closer game against the Packers in Week 16. | ||||
WR | 7.26 | 27% (+1) | 135 | Austin racked up 73 yards of offense and a pair of TDs in a Week 15 win over Tampa Bay but remains a boom-or-bust option and a Week 16 road game against Seattle doesn't look like a good spot to make an impact despite his play-making ability. | ||||
WR | 8.62 | 22% (+12) | 99 | Rueben Randle extended his scoring streak to two games, and three of the last four, with a touchdown against Carolina. | ||||
RB | 6.10 | 16% (-3) | 196 | Though James Starks showed some spark while Eddie Lacy sputtered again last Sunday, he caught only one pass and now faces a Cardinals defense that has not allowed an opposing rusher to top 69 yards since Week 6 and is allowing just 86.7 rushing yards per game. | ||||
RB | 8.49 | 33% (+11) | 113 | James White continues to be a force in the passing game, racking up 21 catches for 224 yards and two receiving touchdowns over his last three contests. | ||||
TE | 9.37 | 67% (+3) | 51 | Julius Thomas, who had a four-game touchdown streak snapped last week, will look to start a new one in Week 16 when the Jacksonville Jaguars face the New Orleans Saints, who have allowed 39 passing touchdowns this season. | ||||
W/R/T | 9.12 | 43% (+5) | 86 | Allen Hurns has been dealing with a thigh injury as he and the Jacksonville Jaguars prepare for a Week 16 meeting with the New Orleans Saints, who rank 30th in passing defense (276.4 ypg). | ||||
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 | 6.39 | 13% (-2) | 180 | Theo Riddick was a forgotten man in Week 15, and while his pass catching ability figures to keep his value for bottoming out, backfield mates Joique Bell and Ameer Abdullah are suddenly running well heading into a matchup with the 49ers 27th ranked rush defense, which could again limited Riddick's chances. | ||||
BN | 6.99 | 6% (-1) | 148 | Nate Washington looks to get some extra targets in Week 16 when the Houston Texans will be without Cecil Shorts (groin) against the Tennessee Titans. | ||||
BN | 9.00 | 50% (–) | 58 | Benjamin Watson has remained a big piece of the Saints’ passing offense, even without a bevy of touchdowns (5) this season. | ||||
BN | 12.03 | 28% (+26) | 45 | Karlos Williams may have been usurped by Mike Gillislee in the backup role to LeSean McCoy, as Gillislee has rushed for touchdowns in consecutive games. | ||||
BN | 22.56 | 73% (+14) | 5 | Ben Roethlisberger completed 40 of 55 pass attempts for 380 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions on Sunday against the number one passing defense in the NFL by yardage, the Denver Broncos, but this week he has a much more favorable match-up against a Baltimore Ravens defense that is 15th in the NFL with 242.3 passing yards allowed per game but 27th with 28 passing touchdowns allowed. | ||||
BN | 3.67 | 2% (–) | 2502 | Cole Beasley was targeted seven times in the loss to the Jets, and could see similar involvement against Buffalo with Kellen Moore taking over at quarterback. | ||||

K | 7.83 | 73% (–) | 206 | Graham Gano’s blocked field goal almost cost the Panthers’ the game, but he’s still 27-for-33 on the season with a league-leading 50 made extra points. | ||||
