Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 23.88 | 69% (-1) | 6 | Matthew Stafford is averaging just 220 yards and 1.5 touchdown passes over the Rams last two games, but he should be able to get back on track in a Week 17 matchup against a Ravens defense that's given up two touchdown passes per game and the 11th-most fantasy points to opposing QBs over the last five weeks. | ||||
WR | 14.80 | 65% (+21) | 43 | A.J. Brown delivered 145 yards and a touchdown last week in his return from injured reserve, and while he's locked in as the top option for Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill, Brown will have to contend with Dolphins shutdown cornerback Xavien Howard in Week 17. | ||||
WR | 10.03 | 54% (+3) | 98 | Odell Beckham has scored in three of the Rams' last four games despite posting inconsistent yardage totals, but he'll be a high-floor fantasy option in a Week 17 matchup against a Ravens defense that's given up the eighth-most fantasy points to opposing WRs over the last five weeks. | ||||
WR | 9.40 | 21% (+7) | 111 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
RB | 12.19 | 61% (+28) | 74 | Rashaad Penny has posted at least 135 rushing yards and a touchdown in two of Seattle's last three games, and he'll look to stay hot in a Week 17 matchup against a Lions defense that's given up the seventh-most fantasy points to opposing RBs over the last five weeks. | ||||
RB | 10.76 | 46% (+10) | 84 | Chase Edmonds posted 127 combined yards and a touchdown with James Conner (heel) missing Arizona'a last game, and Conner's status will impact Edmonds' fantasy potential in a Week 17 matchup against a Dallas defense that's allowed the 12th-fewest fantasy points to opposing RBs over the last five weeks. | ||||
TE | 9.49 | 62% (-2) | 109 | Dallas Goedert disappointed last game for the Eagles but had a touchdown called back due to penalty, and quarterback Jalen Hurts missed him on what would have been a separate wide-open score, so Goedert should remain an elite option in Week 17 versus a reeling Washington defense that's allowed the most passing touchdowns in the NFL this season. | ||||
W/R/T | 15.74 | 85% (+57) | 35 | Austin Ekeler missed last week's game while on the COVID-19 list, but he'll be at the head of the Chargers' backfield in Week 17 against a Broncos defense he gashed for 99 scrimmage yards and a TD in their first meeting this season. | ||||

BN | 11.13 | 47% (-11) | 79 | Marquise Brown has not topped 55 yards or scored in any of his last six games for the Ravens, but in Week 17, he gets a Rams defense that ranks eighth in pass DVOA in 2021. | ||||
BN | 10.02 | 75% (-8) | 99 | Kyle Pitts has topped 60 receiving yards in each of Atlanta's last three games heading into a Week 17 matchup against a Buffalo defense that has allowed the third-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends. | ||||
BN | 6.04 | 6% (–) | 206 | Laviska Shenault missed last week's game while on the reserve/COVID-19 list, and he was also battling shoulder and foot injuries prior to entering COVID protocols, but even if he's able to make his return when the Jaguars travel to New England in Week 17, Shenault's unlikely to find much room against the stingy Patriots secondary. | ||||
BN | 18.59 | 17% (-1) | 22 | Derek Carr has a weak 5:4 TD:INT over the last six games and is playing through a rib injury, giving him limited appeal even in the Raiders' Week 17 clash with a Colts defense that ranks 31st in the league in passing touchdowns allowed. | ||||
