Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 16 | 24% (–) | 105 | Deshaun Watson has topped 170 yards passing just once in five outings for the Browns this season, and in Week 18, he'll get a Pittsburgh defense that has given up 20.8 points per game so far in 2022, the 11th-lowest total in the league. | ||||
WR | 11 | 88% (–) | 14 | Tee Higgins has scored in each of his last four healthy outings for the Bengals, and in Week 18, he'll get a Baltimore defense that has given up 169.9 yards per game to wide receivers in 2022, the fifth-highest total in the league. | ||||
WR | 8 | 96% (–) | 45 | Justin Jefferson is in an obvious spot to bounce back from his worst game of the season when the Vikings face a Bears' defense in Week 18 that allows 7.5 ypa and one he posted 154 yards against previously, but playing time concerns will need to be monitored throughout the week. | ||||
RB | 10 | 80% (+1) | 38 | Najee Harris has put up at least 92 yards or a touchdown in each of his last eight games for the Steelers, and in Week 18, he'll get a Cleveland defense that has given up 117.3 rushing yards per game to running backs so far this season, the fifth-highest total in the league. | ||||
RB | 8 | 72% (–) | 32 | Rhamondre Stevenson has been boom-or-bust of late for the Patriots, and in Week 18, he'll get a Buffalo defense that has given up 87.1 rushing yards per game to running backs in 2022, the 10th-lowest total in the league. | ||||
W/T | 6 | 67% (–) | 35 | Evan Engram cooled down with a one-catch effort last week after totaling 26 catches over the previous three games, including a career-best 11 catches for 162 yards and two touchdowns against the Titans, whom the Jaguars will host in Week 18 with a playoff berth on the line. | ||||
BN | 0 | 94% (-3) | 2350 | Saquon Barkley set a new career high with 1,312 yards rushing for the Giants but is unlikely to see much action in Week 18 versus the Eagles with the Giants locked into playoff positioning. | ||||
BN | 0 | 44% (-1) | 2319 | J.K. Dobbins has put up at least 93 yards in three of his four games since his return from injury, but in Week 18, he'll get a Cincinnati defense giving up 80.1 yards on the ground per game to running backs, the fifth-lowest total in the league. | ||||
BN | 0 | 10% (-1) | 2484 | Mike White has thrown four interceptions and no touchdowns over his last three starts for the Jets, and in Week 18, he'll get a Miami defense that has given up 24.6 points per game in 2022, the sixth-highest total in the league. | ||||
BN | 11 | 3% (–) | 2374 | Andy Dalton has failed to throw for multiple touchdowns in four of his last five games as the Saints head into a Week 18 matchup against a Panthers defense that has allowed the most fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks across the last five weeks. | ||||
BN | 7 | 43% (-1) | 62 | Diontae Johnson has at least five catches and 60 yards in five of his last six games for the Steelers, but in Week 18, he gets a Cleveland defense that has allowed 134.2 passing yards per game to wide receivers so far in 2022, the sixth-lowest total in the league. | ||||
BN | 8 | 46% (–) | 79 | Devin Singletary is coming off his best outing of the season for the Bills, but in Week 18, he'll get a New England defense that has allowed 79.9 rushing yards per game to running backs in 2022, the fourth-lowest total in the league. | ||||
BN | 6 | 20% (–) | 112 | Tyler Boyd has been boom-or-bust this season for the Bengals, and in Week 18, he'll get a Baltimore defense that has given up 169.9 yards per game to wide receivers in 2022, the fifth-highest total in the league. | ||||
BN | 4 | 3% (–) | 148 | K.J. Osborn has flashed in two of the Vikings last three games as the game scripts got pass-happy, and while that's not likely to happen in Week 18 against Chicago, he could see additional opportunities if the team chooses to sit options ahead of him, giving him a chance to beat a secondary that allows 7.5 ypa. | ||||
