Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 21.91 | 16% (+15) | 11 | Trey Lance rushed for 89 yards against the Cardinals in his only start for the 49ers, and if Jimmy Garoppolo (thumb) is unable to play, Lance could be an excellent fantasy option in a Week 17 matchup against a Texans defense that's allowed the fourth-fewest fantasy points to opposing QBs over the last five weeks. | ||||
WR | 21.96 | 98% (–) | 10 | Cooper Kupp has just one game with fewer than 92 yards for the Rams this season, and he'll remain an elite 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 | 5.66 | 10% (-2) | 215 | Mecole Hardman found the end zone for the first time since late September in last week's win over the Steelers and has seen his target volume trend upward recently, but he remains a secondary option in the Kansas City offense heading into a Week 17 clash with a Bengals defense that ranks 29th in passing yards per game allowed. | ||||
WR | 12.65 | 63% (+12) | 67 | Jaylen Waddle has at least 90 yards receiving and 10 targets in three straight outings for the Dolphins, but in Week 17, he gets a Titans defense that ranks 10th in pass DVOA this season. | ||||
RB | 16.99 | 97% (-1) | 25 | Najee Harris has 100 total yards or a touchdown in all but three games this year for the Steelers, and in Week 17, he gets a Browns defense that ranks 20th in rush DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
RB | 10.00 | 45% (–) | 100 | AJ Dillon has seen only 20 total touches in the last two weeks for the Packers as Aaron Jones has returned to full health in what's become a pass-dominated offense, though he won't need heavy volume to exploit a Vikings defense in Week 17 that's allowing 4.7 yards per carry, and one that he posted 97 total yards against earlier in the year. | ||||
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 | 5.47 | 20% (-1) | 226 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 1.01 | 3% (–) | 368 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 10% (–) | 775 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 2% (–) | 874 | Tre'Quan Smith suffered a chest injury in Monday's loss to the Dolphins and will be questionable for the Saints' Week 17 matchup against a Carolina defense that has allowed the fifth-fewest receiving yards to opposing wide receivers this season. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 20% (-17) | 743 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 19% (-10) | 1102 | Jerry Jeudy led the Broncos in receiving yards last week with Drew Lock at the helm, but regardless of who's under center his target volume could be low again in Week 17 against a Chargers defense that's been much more vulnerable on the ground than through the air this season. | ||||
BN | 19.50 | 15% (–) | 20 | Tua Tagovailoa has thrown for under 200 yards in back-to-back games for the Dolphins, and in Week 17, he'll get a Titans defense that ranks 10th in pass DVOA this season. | ||||
BN | 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. | ||||
BN | 12.24 | 34% (-2) | 72 | Michael Carter is coming off his first career 100-yard rushing day for the Jets, but in Week 17, he'll get a Buccaneers defense that ranks 11th in rush DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
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. | ||||
