|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 15.94 | 44% (-5) | 15 | Jared Goff has thrown for greater than 250 yards in nine of the Lions' 15 games this season, posting a 27:10 TD:INT, and in Week 17 he travels to face a Dallas defense that has allowed opposing QBs to average just 199.6 passing yards per contest, which ranks fifth in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 17.23 | 99% (–) | 13 | CeeDee Lamb has scored in seven-straight games 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 | 14.29 | 98% (–) | 27 | Amon-Ra St. Brown has topped 100 receiving yards in back-to-back contests for the Lions, marking the eighth time he's done so in 14 games this season, but in Week 17 he faces a Dallas defense that has allowed just two wideouts (Curtis Samuel in Week 12 and DK Metcalf in Week 13) to accumulate 100-plus receiving yards in a game and the 7.3 yards per target they allow to opposing WRs ranks seventh in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 11.41 | 75% (-2) | 76 | Rashee Rice set a Kansas City rookie record for catches in a season last week, and he has plenty of big-play potential in Week 17 against a Bengals defense that ranks 31st in yards per target allowed to wideouts. | ||||
RB | 12.06 | 81% (+5) | 59 | D'Andre Swift found the end zone last game for the Eagles and will face a Cardinals defense in Week 17 that's yielded 19 rushing scores in 2023, which is 28th 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 | 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. | ||||
W/R/T | 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. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 16% (–) | 1091 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 1% (–) | 818 | Marvin Mims posted his highest yardage total since late September last week as he stepped up in the absence of Courtland Sutton, and the Broncos' rookie could deliver even better numbers in Week 17 against a Chargers secondary that ranks in the bottom four in the league in receiving yards and touchdowns allowed to WRs. | ||||
BN | 9.24 | 64% (-8) | 99 | Tee Higgins has posted a 9-201-3 line on 16 targets over the last two games, and with Ja'Marr Chase (shoulder) potentially unavailable again for the Bengals, Higgins could be productive again in Week 17 versus a Kansas City secondary that ranks in the top eight in catches and receiving yards allowed to wideouts. | ||||
BN | 13.17 | 91% (-1) | 37 | Jahmyr Gibbs has gained 6.0 yards per carry and 5.0 yards per target across the last nine games for the Lions, scoring an eye-popping 10 TDs during that span, and in Week 17 he faces a Cowboys defense that ranks 13th in YPC (4.1) and 17th in YPT (5.4) allowed to opposing RBs this season. | ||||
BN | 7.13 | 17% (-4) | 161 | Antonio Gibson scored his first rushing touchdown of the season last game for Washington and could be in line for an expanded role if both Brian Robinson and Chris Rodriguez are sidelined due to injury in Week 17, though a matchup with a San Francisco defense that's allowing just 90.3 yards per tilt on the ground, which is third in the NFL, is not ideal. | ||||
BN | 6.25 | 49% (+1) | 189 | Kyle Pitts has a touchdown in two of his last three games as the Falcons head into a Week 17 matchup against a Bears defense that has allowed a league-average six touchdowns to opposing tight ends this season. | ||||
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 | 12.28 | 57% (+24) | 54 | Ja'Marr Chase missed the Bengals' last game with a shoulder injury, making him a risky option in Week 17 against a Kansas City secondary that ranks in the top eight in catches and receiving yards allowed to wideouts. | ||||
BN | 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. | ||||
