Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 30.03 | 65% (-6) | 4 | If Drew Brees can play—a big if with a torn plantar fascia—he’ll have a great matchup against the bottom-three Jags secondary. | ||||
WR | 13.55 | 68% (-2) | 101 | T.Y. Hilton has been up and down all season but has a potentially good week coming up in Week 16 when the Indianapolis Colts face off against the Miami Dolphins, who rank 31st in passing touchdowns allowed (31). | ||||
WR | 14.02 | 55% (+1) | 72 | Brown dropped a pair of early TD passes that would have resulted in a huge game but at least salvaged the day somewhat with a third quarter score from Carson Palmer and should be able to get back on track against the Packers in Week 16. | ||||
WR | 14.49 | 81% (+1) | 67 | Sammy Watkins has three 100-yard games and six touchdowns over his last four contests, but faces a Dallas Cowboys defense allowing just 15 passing touchdowns this season, which is second in the NFL. | ||||
RB | 13.29 | 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 | 20.02 | 98% (-1) | 8 | Adrian Peterson has been held under 70 yards in three straight games while scoring just once, but faces a Giants defense that is allowing 114.6 yards per game. | ||||
TE | 11.48 | 65% (-3) | 87 | Gary Barnidge caught three passes for 29 yards and a touchdown against the Seattle Seahawks' Legion of Boom on Sunday, giving him at least 50 yards and/or a touchdown in 11 of his last 12 games, but this week he faces a tough match-up against a Kansas City Chiefs defense that is number one in the NFL in limiting production to opposing tight ends. | ||||
W/T | 12.08 | 24% (+5) | 82 | Zach Miller has five or more targets in five of his last six games and with the Bears receiving corps depleted by injury, he should see ample chances against a Buccaneers defense that has allowed opposing tight ends to top 63 yards in consecutive weeks, but have not allowed a tight end to score since Week 8. | ||||
W/R | 17.20 | 55% (-2) | 29 | Denard Robinson suffered a foot injury last week and is questionable leading up to the Jacksonville Jaguars' Week 16 meeting with the New Orleans Saints. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 53% (-38) | 2180 | Alshon Jeffery would be in line for his usual heavy workload in an inviting matchup against a Buccaneers defense that has allowed 20 touchdown receptions to receivers this season, provided he can play through a hamstring injury that limited him last Sunday. | ||||
BN | 9.07 | 14% (+13) | 107 | Michael leveraged his familiarity with the Seattle offense into a lead role (16 carries, 84 yards) in Week 15 despite re-joining the team in the middle of the week and appears set to led the running game in a Week 16 matchup against the Rams. | ||||
BN | 12.27 | 22% (+2) | 75 | Jeremy Langford has 11 or more carries in eight straight games, but has not scored in three weeks while Matt Forte has reached the end zone in each contest, setting Langford up for another complimentary role Sunday against a ninth ranked Buccaneers rush defense. | ||||
BN | 9.80 | 11% (+1) | 159 | |||||
BN | 5.77 | 1% (–) | 1810 | Jay Ajayi scored his first NFL touchdown this past Sunday, but likely saw increased work due to the lopsided score and remains behind Lamar Miller on the depth chart. | ||||
BN | 3.67 | 0% (–) | 2620 | Jerick McKinnon showed renewed burst and a receiving prowess last week, and could see additional work against the Giants should Adrian Peterson's ankle injury be worse than the team is reporting. | ||||
BN | 23.52 | 27% (+19) | 17 | Kirk Cousins threw for four touchdowns and ran for another in a win over Buffalo and gets a nice matchup against a poor Philadelphia defense for this week. |

K | 7.10 | 29% (+6) | 1802 | Chris Boswell made both of his field goal attempts and all four extra point opportunities on Sunday against the Denver Broncos, and takes his average of 2.6 made field goals per game into Week 16 to face a Baltimore Ravens defense that allows 2.0 field goals per game (third most in the NFL). |
