Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 21.71 | 64% (+1) | 12 | Russell Wilson has failed to reach 182 yards in each of the Seahawks' last two games though he's thrown two touchdown passes in four of his last five matchups going into a Week 17 matchup against a Lions defense that's allowed the 13th-fewest fantasy points to opposing QBs over the last five weeks. | ||||
WR | 15.68 | 97% (-2) | 36 | Justin Jefferson has topped 100 yards in four of his last seven games, scoring five times for the Vikings, and should again be peppered with targets in Week 17 with Adam Thielen continuing to nurse an ankle injury, giving him a decent shot to replicate the 8-169-2 line he posted against the Packers earlier in the year. | ||||
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. | ||||
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. | ||||
RB | 12.87 | 60% (+22) | 64 | Devin Singletary has at least 78 total yards in three straight games for the Bills, but in Week 17, he gets a Falcons defense that ranks 25th in rush DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
RB | 18.84 | 96% (+1) | 21 | Alvin Kamara has compiled only 90 total yards across his last two games as the Saints head into a Week 17 matchup against a Panthers defense that has allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs this season. | ||||
TE | 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. | ||||
W/R/T | 9.55 | 32% (+1) | 108 | Tony Pollard has gained at least 50 scrimmage yards in six straight games for the Cowboys but will face a Cardinals defense in Week 17 allowing just 324.3 scrimmage yards per tilt, which is eighth in the NFL. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 1% (–) | 870 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 6% (–) | 809 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 28% (+1) | 866 | Lamar Jackson has thrown for at least 235 passing yards in all but two of his healthy games this year for the Ravens, but in Week 17, he gets a Rams defense that ranks sixth in DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 1% (–) | 778 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 35% (-52) | 517 | James Robinson tore his Achilles last week and will miss the remainder of the season, leaving Dare Ogunbowale as the leading option in Jacksonville's backfield for the team's Week 17 road tilt in New England. | ||||
BN | 6.32 | 21% (-26) | 197 | Jeff Wilson has scored in each of the 49ers' last two games, but he'll need Elijah Mitchell (knee) to miss another game to see enough volume to be a strong fantasy option in a Week 17 matchup against a Texans defense that's allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing RBs over the last five weeks. | ||||
BN | 4.23 | 4% (–) | 259 | Jonnu Smith has topped 30 yards in just three games this season for the Patriots, but in Week 17, he'll get a Jaguars defense that ranks 31st in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
BN | 6.48 | 7% (–) | 189 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 8.97 | 15% (+2) | 125 | Nyheim Hines has just five touches in the past two games as workhorse Jonathan Taylor continues to get the vast majority of opportunities in the Indianapolis backfield, but perhaps Hines will be able to make the most of his limited usage in Week 17 against a Raiders defense that has allowed 14 touchdowns to running backs on the ground and another six through the air. | ||||
