Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 21.68 | 95% (-1) | 3 | Josh Allen has accounted for multiple touchdowns in each of his last 13 outings for the Bills, and in Week 17, he'll face a Patriots defense that has given up 15.2 fantasy points per game to quarterbacks in 2023, seventh-fewest in the league. | ||||
WR | 10.02 | 45% (+4) | 83 | Terry McLaurin has amassed 191 yards receiving over his last two games for Washington and will face a San Francisco defense in Week 17 allowing 241.1 passing yards per tilt, which is 16th in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 11.97 | 87% (–) | 62 | Mike Evans has scored at least 13 touchdowns three times in the last four seasons, though he may have a hard time adding to that total as Tampa Bay heads into a Week 17 matchup against a Saints defense that has allowed only 10 touchdowns to opposing wide receivers -- tied for second-fewest in the league. | ||||
WR | 7.34 | 5% (+1) | 155 | Quentin Johnston has caught multiple passes in four straight games, posting a 12-195-1 line on 19 targets over that stretch, and the Chargers' rookie will have some big-play potential in Week 17 against a Broncos secondary that ranks 27th in yards per target allowed to wideouts. | ||||
RB | 9.41 | 13% (+4) | 91 | Khalil Herbert racked up 121 scrimmage yards on 21 touches last time out as D'Onta Foreman missed the game due to personal reasons, but if Foreman returns for the Bears in Week 17, Herbert could return to a diminished role against a tough Atlanta 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. | ||||
RB | 5.71 | 13% (+1) | 204 | Tyler Allgeier has earned single-digit carries in three of his last five games as the Falcons head into a Week 17 matchup against a Bears defense that has allowed the third-fewest rushing attempts this season. | ||||
TE | 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. | ||||
W/R/T | 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. | ||||
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 | 15% (-1) | 745 | Keenan Allen has missed two straight games with a heel injury, but if he's able to return to the Chargers' lineup in Week 17, he'll be facing a Broncos secondary that ranks 27th in yards per target allowed to wideouts. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 3% (–) | 643 | Zay Jones missed Jacksonville's previous game with a hamstring injury, and even if he's cleared to return in Week 17, Jones could have a hard time getting open against a Panthers defense that has allowed the fourth-fewest yards to WRs. | ||||
BN | 6.86 | 23% (–) | 176 | Gabe Davis has put up either zero or more than 100 yards in each of Buffalo's last five games heading into a Week 17 clash with a Patriots defense that has given up 28.4 fantasy points per game to wide receivers this season, which ranks in the middle of the pack. | ||||
BN | 13.00 | 56% (+2) | 39 | Ezekiel Elliott has seen at least 16 touches in all three games since Rhamondre Stevenson hurt his ankle, and Elliott could retain the lead-back role for the Patriots in Week 17 against 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 | 13.96 | 96% (-1) | 31 | Travis Kelce hasn't scored a touchdown over the last five games despite racking up 26 catches for 327 yards in that span, but he could end his scoring drought in Week 17 as Kansas City takes on a Bengals defense that ranks last in the NFL in catches and receiving yards allowed to tight ends. | ||||
BN | 9.57 | 33% (-17) | 89 | Jordan Addison was forced to exit the Vikings' last contest after sustaining an ankle injury, but if he can return in Week 17, he'll bring his 8.7 YPT into a matchup with a Packers defense that has allowed opposing WRs to gain 8.5 yards per target, the ninth-highest mark in the NFL this season. | ||||
BN | 14.77 | 11% (-4) | 21 | Sam Howell was benched for the second-straight week and has a 2:8 TD:INT over the last five games, leaving his status as Washington's starting quarterback for Week 17 in jeopardy versus the vaunted 49ers defense which has tallied more interceptions (19) than touchdown passes allowed (17). | ||||
BN | 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. | ||||
