|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 27.09 | 86% (-4) | 9 | Tom Brady has tossed at least two touchdown passes in four-straight games, and faces a New York Jets defense that has allowed 24 passing touchdowns this season, which is tied for 17th in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 18.08 | 97% (–) | 39 | DeAndre Hopkins has been seeing a lot of double teams of late, which has limited him to one touchdown over the past four weeks, but has a favorable Week 16 matchup against the Tennessee Titans, who have allowed 30 passing touchdowns (29th) this season. | ||||
WR | 10.61 | 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. | ||||
RB | 10.53 | 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. | ||||
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 | 12.03 | 78% (–) | 92 | Delanie Walker is breaking franchise records for a tight end this season and looks to build on those records in Week 16 when the Tennessee Titans face the Houston Texans, who rank second in passing defense (211.1 ypg). | ||||
W/R/T | 12.73 | 22% (+12) | 99 | Rueben Randle extended his scoring streak to two games, and three of the last four, with a touchdown against Carolina. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 15% (-6) | 2318 | Matt Jones managed 10 carries in the win over Buffalo but continues to disappoint with a poor 3.4 YPC on the year. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 3% (–) | 2072 | Rishard Matthews remains sidelined with rib/chest issues. | ||||
BN | 9.25 | 4% (–) | 167 | Malcom Floyd has struggled in four games since returning from a shoulder injury, but faces a Raiders defense Thursday that's allowed 265.6 passing yards per game, fifth-worst in the league. | ||||
BN | 9.66 | 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 | 14.99 | 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. | ||||
BN | 15.61 | 62% (+18) | 60 | DeSean Jackson rebounded a two-catch, 43-yard effort with a season-high 153-yard outburst against Buffalo that also included a customary long touchdown for the talented wideout. | ||||
