Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 23.68 | 86% (-3) | 7 | Kyler Murray has two total touchdowns over Arizona's last three games, and he could find it tough to get back on track in a Week 17 matchup against a Dallas defense that's allowed fewer than one touchdown pass per game over the last five weeks. | ||||
WR | 17.34 | 98% (+2) | 23 | Stefon Diggs has scored in seven of his last 10 outings for the Bills, but in Week 17, he gets a Falcons defense that ranks 29th in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
WR | 12.22 | 69% (-4) | 73 | Terry McLaurin's production continues to be limited by shoddy quarterback play, and it appears both Taylor Heinicke and Kyle Allen will receive snaps for Washington in Week 17 versus an Eagles defense allowing just 215.6 passing yards per outing, which is ninth in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 8.17 | 18% (+3) | 148 | Allen Robinson seems likely to play in Week 17 for the Bears for just the second time since Week 9, but having only one touchdown to date and having not topped 68 yards to date, he'll be a risky option against a Giants defense that has allowed only three opposing wideouts to top 79 yards against them since their Week 10 bye. | ||||
RB | 5.65 | 25% (-6) | 216 | Myles Gaskin saw just four touches his last time out for the Dolphins, but in Week 17, he gets a Titans defense that ranks 17th in rush DVOA this season. | ||||
RB | 14.69 | 93% (-1) | 45 | Aaron Jones hasn't seen 15 carries since Week 8 but remains involved in the Packers' passing attack entering an inviting Week 17 matchup against a Vikings defense that allows 4.7 yards per rush and has allowed opposing lead backs to go for at least 80 total yards in five straight weeks. | ||||
TE | 9.19 | 46% (+3) | 116 | Tyler Higbee has posted at least 41 yards in each of the last two games he's played for the Rams, but his numerous floor games this season make him a risky fantasy option in a Week 17 matchup against a Ravens defense that's given up 53 yards per game to opposing TEs over the last five weeks. | ||||
W/R/T | 8.95 | 45% (-5) | 126 | Mike Gesicki has not topped 50 yards or scored in any of his last six games for the Dolphins, and in Week 17, he gets a Titans defense that ranks 10th in pass DVOA this season. | ||||

BN | 3.45 | 0% (–) | 281 | Denzel Mims hasn't topped 40 yards in a game all season for the Jets, but in Week 17, he'll get a Buccaneers defense that ranks fourth in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 30% (-11) | 788 | James Conner missed Arizona's last game with a heel injury, and if he's back in action, he'll likely split work with Chase Edmonds 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. | ||||
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 | 6.33 | 11% (-3) | 196 | Evan Engram found the end zone last game for the Giants and will face a Bears secondary in Week 17 that's given up 28 passing scores in 2021, which is tied for 28th in the NFL. | ||||
BN | 13.54 | 1% (–) | 55 | Sam Darnold took the field for first time since Week 9 in Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers, and he could be the primary quarterback for the Panthers heading into a Week 17 matchup against a Saints defense that has allowed opposing quarterbacks to throw only 19 touchdowns this season. | ||||
