Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 0.00 | 15% (-11) | 593 | Russell Wilson will be benched for Denver's final two games with the team falling out of the playoff hunt, so Jarrett Stidham will make his first start of the season in Week 17 against the generous Chargers secondary. | ||||
WR | 11.81 | 69% (-5) | 70 | Garrett Wilson has seen double-digit targets in eight of his last 12 outings for the Jets, and in Week 17, he'll get a Browns defense that has allowed 22.0 fantasy points per game to wide receivers in 2023, the third-best number in the league. | ||||
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 | 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. | ||||
RB | 12.12 | 63% (-3) | 57 | Kenneth Walker has rushed for just one touchdown in his last eight games played for Seattle and will face a Steelers defense in Week 17 that's allowed just eight rushing touchdowns all season, which is fourth in the NFL. | ||||
RB | 11.94 | 62% (+2) | 64 | Aaron Jones unsurprisingly torched Carolina's run defense for 127 yards on 21 carries last week, his first 100-plus yard rushing effort since the penultimate game of last season against the Vikings, and in Week 17 of this season, the Packers will once again face a Minnesota defense that has allowed opposing RBs to gain just 3.7 yards per carry, which ranks seventh in the NFL. | ||||
TE | 4.65 | 7% (+3) | 246 | Juwan Johnson has touchdown receptions in consecutive games as the Saints head into a Week 17 matchup against a Buccaneers defense that has allowed the fourth-most fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends. | ||||
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 | 0.00 | 1% (–) | 798 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 5% (–) | 806 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 5% (–) | 594 | Christian Watson has missed three straight contests with a hamstring injury, and if he can return in Week 17 for the Packers, he'll bring his 8.0 YPT and five receiving TDs into a matchup with a Vikings defense that has allowed opposing WR groups to average 14.7 receptions per tilt, the third-highest mark in the NFL this season. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 42% (-46) | 500 | Jaylen Waddle has just three outings this season of 90 yards or more for the Dolphins, and if he can go in Week 17 after hurting his ankle last week, he'll take on a Ravens defense that has given up 25.2 fantasy points per game to wide receivers in 2023, the 11th-best total in the league. | ||||
BN | 3.73 | 1% (–) | 264 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 28% (-19) | 497 | Trevor Lawrence left last week's game with a right shoulder sprain and has also suffered a sprained ankle and concussion over the last four weeks, but he has yet to miss a start in his NFL career and could continue that streak in Week 17, when the Jaguars host a Panthers team that has allowed the third-fewest passing yards to QBs. | ||||
BN | 4.41 | 16% (–) | 250 | Alexander Mattison returned from an ankle injury to post an uninspiring rushing line of two carries for minus-1 yard after averaging 12.9 carries and 50.8 rushing yards across his previous 13 games for the Vikings this season, and in Week 17, he'll likely split carries with Ty Chandler against a Packers defense that has allowed opposing RB groups to combine for 101.4 rushing yards per contest, which ranks 27th in the NFL 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. | ||||
