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 | 9.58 | 51% (+3) | 88 | Chris Godwin has earned at least 11 targets in three consecutive games as the Buccaneers head into a Week 17 matchup against a Saints defense that has allowed the ninth-fewest receptions to opposing wide receivers. | ||||
WR | 9.28 | 25% (+13) | 98 | Rashid Shaheed returned to a near full-time role in Week 16 and will now draw a favorable matchup as the Saints head into a Week 17 matchup against a Buccaneers defense that has allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season. | ||||
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. | ||||
RB | 11.94 | 60% (+3) | 65 | Javonte Williams scored his second rushing touchdown in three games last week despite an otherwise poor performance, but he could post solid numbers in Week 17 as the Broncos face a Chargers defense that's been below average against RBs on the ground and ranks 30th in catches and receiving yards allowed to the position. | ||||
RB | 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. | ||||
TE | 5.30 | 24% (+2) | 221 | Pat Freiermuth failed to see a target last week with Mason Rudolph under center for the Steelers, making him a risky option in Week 17 against a Seahawks defense that ranks 25th in receiving yards allowed to tight ends. | ||||
W/R/T | 5.14 | 2% (+1) | 227 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 0% (–) | 600 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 4% (–) | 755 | |||||
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 | 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 | 3.30 | 2% (–) | 278 | Michael Gallup has fewer than 10 yards receiving in three of the last four games for Dallas, making him a risky play in Week 17 even against a soft Detroit pass defense allowing 234.9 yards per clash through the air, which is 23rd in the league. | ||||
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 | 3.25 | 3% (–) | 281 | Samaje Perine has seen at least five targets in three of the last six games, and he may not need many touches to make an impact in Week 17 as the Broncos take on a Chargers defense that ranks 30th in catches and receiving yards allowed to running backs. | ||||
BN | 4.96 | 12% (–) | 234 | Miles Sanders is questionable for a Week 17 matchup against the Jaguars but has 30 or fewer rushing yards in four of his last five games as Chuba Hubbard has taken over as the lead back in Carolina. | ||||
BN | 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. | ||||
