In-Depth Analysis
Quarterbacks
Trevor Lawrence (Jaguars): Averaging 20.5 fantasy points over the last two weeks, Lawrence faces a favorable matchup against the Jets. Jacksonville may opt to run the ball, but Lawrence should still deliver a solid performance. He is 43% rostered.
J.J. McCarthy (Vikings): Coming off his first 20-point fantasy outing since Week 1, McCarthy faces a Cowboys defense that allows the most fantasy points to quarterbacks. He is 30% rostered.
Running Backs
Chris Rodriguez Jr. (Commanders): Continues to serve as the Commanders’ lead back and faces a Giants defense that allows the second-most fantasy points to running backs. He is 37% rostered with a FAB of $29.
Bam Knight (Cardinals): Knight has been the most valuable fantasy back in Arizona, scoring touchdowns in three consecutive appearances prior to Week 14. He has favorable matchups against the Falcons and Bengals in Weeks 16 and 17. He is 38% rostered with a FAB of $24.
Blake Corum (Rams): Corum has taken advantage of increased opportunities, posting at least 55 scrimmage yards in four of his last six outings. He is a true fantasy RB3 with immense upside. He is 33% rostered with a FAB of $19.
Devin Singletary (Giants): Singletary has posted at least 45 scrimmage yards in five straight contests and has a favorable upcoming schedule. He is an RB3/flex option even with Tyrone Tracy Jr. in the lineup. He is 24% rostered with a FAB of $9.
Wide Receivers
Luther Burden III (Bears): With Rome Odunze sidelined, Burden led the Bears in targets, catches, and yards in Week 14. He is a WR3/flex option while Odunze is out. He is 17% rostered with a FAB of $19.
Jayden Reed (Packers): Reed looked good in his first action since Week 2 and should be rostered to see if his usage rises in the coming weeks. He is 41% rostered with a FAB of $9.
Jalen Coker (Panthers): Coker had over 50 yards in two of his last three games prior to the Week 14 bye. He could be a sneaky WR4/flex option. He is 4% rostered with a FAB of $7.
Tight Ends
Harold Fannin Jr. (Browns): Fannin has been a regular in this column and is the TE11 in fantasy points per game on the year. He can realistically be treated as a top-10 fantasy TE the rest of the way. He is 40% rostered with a FAB of $19.
Isaiah Likely (Ravens): Likely gets to square off with the Bengals’ defense that’s hemorrhaging fantasy points to tight ends. He should be fired up as an upside TE2/streamer. He is 6% rostered with a FAB of $9.
