|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 24.95 | 96% (–) | 1 | Jalen Hurts is coming off his fourth 300-yard passing game of the season for the Eagles, has rushed for 15 touchdowns in 2023 and will face a suspect Cardinals defense in Week 17 allowing the second-most points in the NFL this year. | ||||
WR | 8.36 | 26% (–) | 114 | Jaxon Smith-Njigba has at least seven targets in three of the last four games for Seattle and will face a Steelers defense in Week 17 that's allowed 230.7 passing yards per tilt, which is 21st in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 17.30 | 91% (+1) | 12 | Justin Jefferson reminded us why he was in the conversation for first overall pick in fantasy drafts, catching six of 10 targets for 141 yards and a score, his first 100-plus receiving yard game since he started the campaign with three-consecutive such games for the Vikings, and in Week 17 he'll take on a Green Bay defense that allows opposing WRs to gain 8.5 yards per target, the ninth-highest mark in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 9.30 | 67% (-5) | 96 | Calvin Ridley caught a touchdown apiece from Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) and C.J. Beathard last week, so the receiver should remain heavily involved in Jacksonville's passing game regardless of which QB starts, though the team could go with a more run-heavy approach in Week 17 against a Panthers defense that's allowing the 12th-most rushing yards and fifth-fewest passing yards per game. | ||||
RB | 11.78 | 73% (+2) | 71 | David Montgomery is averaging 4.7 yards per carry and has found the end zone 11 times in just 12 games this season as the Lions face a Dallas defense in Week 17 that ranks 13th in YPC (4.1) allowed to opposing RBs and has given up eight rushing TDs to RBs, which is tied for the 16th-most in the NFL. | ||||
RB | 9.82 | 41% (+3) | 86 | Jaylen Warren has seen his role and production dwindle since the Steelers replaced Matt Canada as offensive coordinator, but he still has some big-play potential in Week 17 against a Seahawks defense that's coughed up 15 rushing TDs to running backs, tied for 30th in the league. | ||||
TE | 6.52 | 20% (+8) | 183 | Chogoziem Okonkwo has surged down the stretch with at least 45 yards in four of his last five games, and Tennessee's top tight end has an excellent opportunity to stay hot in Week 17 against a Houston defense that has allowed the most catches (100) and third-most receiving yards (943) to his position. | ||||
W/R/T | 6.98 | 35% (-1) | 168 | Dalton Kincaid has seen just two targets in each of his last two outings for the Bills, and in Week 17, the rookie tight end gets a Patriots defense that has given up 6.9 fantasy points per game to his position in 2023, which ranks second-best in the league. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 4% (-1) | 653 | D'Onta Foreman missed last week's game for the Bears due to personal reasons, but if he plays in Week 17, he'll bring his 3.9 yards per carry into a matchup with a tough Falcons run defense which allowed their first rushing TD of the season on Christmas Eve and has only given up 3.7 yards per carry to opposing RBs, which ranks sixth in the NFL. | ||||

BN | 11.94 | 88% (–) | 66 | DeVonta Smith has scored three times in the last five games for the Eagles and will face a soft Arizona pass defense in Week 17 that's allowed 27 throwing scores in 2023, which is tied for 28th in the NFL. | ||||
BN | 7.39 | 14% (-5) | 148 | Tyler Boyd is coming off his most productive game since Week 10, but the veteran slot receiver still has a limited ceiling in Week 17 as the Bengals face a Kansas City secondary that ranks in the top eight in catches and receiving yards allowed to wideouts. | ||||
BN | 14.72 | 19% (+6) | 22 | Derek Carr has thrown for multiple touchdowns in three straight games as the Saints head into a Week 17 matchup against a Tampa Bay defense that has allowed the 10th most passing touchdowns to opposing quarterbacks this season. | ||||
