Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 15.83 | 3% (–) | 38 | Matt Hasselbeck is dealing with several injuries from head to toe as the Indianapolis Colts prepare for their Week 16 game against the Miami Dolphins, who rank 27th in passing defense (264.7 ypg). | ||||
WR | 8.61 | 21% (+10) | 123 | Despite scoring twice last Sunday, Stefon Diggs has three or fewer catches in three straight games, making him a risky proposition despite an inviting matchup against the league's worst secondary in the Giants, who are allowing 308 yards per game. | ||||
WR | 9.34 | 19% (+11) | 117 | Markus Wheaton caught six passes for 62 yards and a touchdown on Sunday against the Denver Broncos, fourth straight game with at least 60 yards and/or a touchdowns, and in Week 16 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. | ||||
WR | 9.55 | 22% (+7) | 97 | Willie Snead has come out of nowhere to be one of the Saints’ top-two receivers this season and gets a solid matchup against a faltering Jags secondary. | ||||
RB | 15.39 | 84% (+5) | 18 | Johnson exploded for 229 yards of offense and three touchdowns in Week 15 despite a brief knee scare but will have a hard time repeating the effort in a tougher draw against the Packers in Week 16. | ||||
RB | 11.63 | 70% (+12) | 50 | Charcandrick West had his best performance in three games last week since returning from a hamstring injury, and gets to face a Browns defense Sunday that's 31st in the league in rushing yards allowed (134.9 per game). | ||||
TE | 6.32 | 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 | 0% (–) | 2173 | |||||
BN | 10.09 | 28% (+2) | 88 | Darren Sproles had just 25 yards from scrimmage in the loss to Arizona, continuing in what has been a largely disappointing season. | ||||
BN | 7.64 | 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 | 4.33 | 0% (–) | 2459 | Marqise Lee has stayed healthy the last six weeks, however, he's well behind others in terms of targets as the Jacksonville Jaguars prepare for a Week 16 road game against the New Orleans Saints. | ||||
BN | 6.23 | 13% (-1) | 137 | Eric Ebron had his second-best outing of the season last week and now faces a 49ers defense that has allowed opposing tight ends to score in consecutive games | ||||
BN | 8.20 | 12% (+1) | 128 | Ellington continues to remain sidelined with turf toe and would appear to have a diminishing role upon his eventual return with the emergence of David Johnson as Arizona prepares for a matchup with the Packers in Week 16. | ||||
BN | 8.01 | 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. | ||||
BN | 0.18 | 0% (–) | 2679 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 0% (–) | 2164 | |||||
BN | 3.23 | 0% (–) | 2583 | Nelson's brief ascension into fantasy relevance has all but ended with his slide back down the depth chart with a healthy group of receivers ahead of him in the Arizona passing game and he's nothing more than a dart throw in a Week 16 matchup against the Packers. | ||||
BN | 12.22 | 2% (–) | 40 | Johnny Manziel completed 19 of 31 pass attempts for 161 yards, a touchdown and an interception while also rushing twice for 12 yards against the Seattle Seahawks, and in Week 16 he faces a solid but less menacing Kansas City Chiefs defensive unit that is 17th in the NFL with 243.2 yards per game allowed through the air. | ||||
BN | 3.35 | 1% (-1) | 2586 | One game after getting his first career start, Chris Polk was reduced to just nine snaps in the Houston Texans backfield committee last week and appears to be behind Alfred Blue in Week 16 against the Tennessee Titans. | ||||
