Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 22.00 | 83% (+3) | 2 | Dak Prescott is coming off his ninth multi-touchdown passing outing of the season for Dallas and will face a Lions defense in Week 17 that's allowed 24 passing scores in 2023, which is 25th in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 6.05 | 6% (+1) | 196 | Jameson Williams has posted career-high reception totals in back-to-back weeks, catching five of his six targets last time out for the Lions, but in Week 17 he faces a Dallas defense that allows opposing WRs to catch just 57.6 percent of targets, the third-lowest mark in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 7.40 | 25% (–) | 147 | Jakobi Meyers has caught multiple passes in seven straight games but has reached 50 receiving yards only once in that stretch while scoring just two touchdowns, giving him a limited ceiling heading into the Raiders' Week 17 clash with a Colts secondary that ranks in the top 10 in catches and receiving yards allowed to wideouts. | ||||
WR | 8.78 | 57% (-2) | 107 | DeAndre Hopkins has six touchdowns in eight games with Will Levis (ankle) as his quarterback and no touchdowns in seven other games with the Titans, so the veteran receiver will be hoping that Levis is healthy enough to return from a one-game absence in Week 17 against a Texans defense that's tied for the second-fewest receiving TDs allowed to WRs (10). | ||||
RB | 13.10 | 68% (+10) | 38 | Jonathan Taylor had 18 carries and scored his sixth scrimmage touchdown of the season last week in his return from thumb surgery, and Taylor should continue to handle the majority of backfield touches for the Colts in Week 17 against a Raiders defense that has allowed the ninth-most rushing yards to running backs. | ||||
RB | 8.87 | 13% (+8) | 104 | Brian Robinson has missed two-straight games for the Commanders but even if he returns from a hamstring injury in Week 17, would face a stout San Francisco run defense allowing just 90.3 yards per clash on the ground, which is third in the NFL. | ||||
TE | 8.31 | 79% (-1) | 116 | Evan Engram has at least nine catches and 82 yards in three of Jacksonville's last four games, but replicating that volume won't be easy in Week 17 against a Panthers defense that's tied for the third-fewest catches allowed to tight ends (56). | ||||
W/R/T | 6.87 | 15% (+3) | 175 | Elijah Moore has caught multiple passes in every game this season but has topped 60 yards only once, giving him little upside in Week 17 as the Browns take on a Jets secondary that ranks first in the league in receptions, yards and TDs allowed to wideouts. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 0% (–) | 825 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 0.24 | 1% (–) | 410 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 13% (-1) | 520 | Rhamondre Stevenson had seen at least 23 touches in back-to-back contests for the Patriots prior to injuring his ankle in Week 13, but if he can go in Week 17, he'll take on a Bills defense that has allowed 18.4 fantasy points per game to running backs this season, which ranks in the middle of the pack. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 31% (-10) | 809 | Josh Jacobs has missed the last two games due to a quad injury, but if he's able to return to the Raiders' backfield in Week 17, he'll face a Colts defense that ranks in the bottom four in rushing yards and touchdowns allowed to RBs. | ||||
BN | 8.25 | 54% (-4) | 118 | Tyler Lockett has 20 targets combined in his last two games for Seattle and will face a mediocre Pittsburgh pass defense in Week 17 allowing 230.7 passing yards per tilt, which is 21st in the NFL. | ||||
BN | 12.64 | 79% (+7) | 49 | Chris Olave has topped 90 receiving yards in four of his last five games as the Saints head into a Week 17 matchup against a Buccaneers defense that has allowed the most yards to opposing wide receivers this season. | ||||
BN | 5.30 | 6% (-1) | 222 | Kenneth Gainwell gained a season-high scrimmage 79 yards last game for the Eagles but remains behind D'Andre Swift on the depth chart, making him an unreliable option in Week 17 even against a Cardinals defense allowing 363 scrimmage yards per tilt, which is 27th in the league. | ||||
BN | 4.94 | 21% (+3) | 236 | Gerald Everett has seen eight targets in three straight games and set a season high with seven catches last week, giving him both a solid floor and intriguing ceiling heading into the Chargers' Week 17 clash with a Broncos defense that ranks in the bottom four in receptions, yards and TDs allowed to tight ends. | ||||
BN | 19.60 | 64% (+2) | 7 | Brock Purdy is coming off his worst game as a professional with four interceptions for the 49ers while also picking up a stinger injury, though is expected to play in Week 17 versus an extremely soft Washington pass defense that's allowed the most throwing scores in the NFL in 2023. | ||||
