Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 24.34 | 85% (–) | 3 | Aaron Rodgers is playing at an elite level, with multiple touchdown passes in 13 of the Packers' 15 outings thus far entering a Week 17 matchup against a Vikings defense he carved up for 385 yards and four TDs earlier this season, now giving him at least 291 yards and three scores in three straight games against the divisional foe. | ||||
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 | 8.93 | 33% (+1) | 130 | Tyler Boyd has gained at least 85 yards in three of his last four games for the Bengals, and in Week 17, he gets a Chiefs defense that ranks 13th in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
WR | 13.01 | 83% (+4) | 60 | Tee Higgins has four 100-yard games in his last five outings for the Bengals, and in Week 17, he gets a Chiefs defense that ranks 13th in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
RB | 10.13 | 75% (-10) | 95 | Saquon Barkley has been held without a rushing touchdown in seven straight games played for the Giants but will face a mediocre Bears run defense in Week 17 that's allowed 14 scores on the ground this season as well as 124.1 yards per tilt on the ground, which is 25th in the league. | ||||
RB | 12.91 | 58% (+33) | 62 | D'Andre Swift has missed four games for the Lions, and while he appears trending towards a return as early as Week 17 against the Seahawks, he'd unlikely see workhorse volume against a defense that's allowing just 3.7 yards per carry, though have been vulnerable to backs in the passing game. | ||||
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 | 10.59 | 46% (+27) | 86 | Brandin Cooks missed last week's game due to COVID-19, but if he's cleared to return in Week 17, Cooks would immediately retake the top spot on Houston's wide receiver depth chart against the 49ers and look to build on his consecutive 100-yard performances prior to his absence. | ||||

BN | 9.93 | 54% (-1) | 101 | DJ Moore has commanded double-digit targets in four consecutive games as the Panthers head into a Week 17 matchup against a New Orleans defense that has allowed the seventh-most receptions to opposing wide receivers this season. | ||||
BN | 4.48 | 17% (-52) | 257 | Alexander Mattison's appeal in Week 17 will be directly tied to the availability of Dalvin Cook, but if the latter sits out again while still in league protocols, the former will be the Vikings bell cow against a Packers defense that's allowing 4.8 yards per carry. | ||||
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 | 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. | ||||
BN | 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. | ||||
