📋 BEST PLAYOFF PICKUPS: Week 17 waiver wire

Half-PPR flex rankings tips for Week 17

Half-PPR RB Week 17 lineup advice

  • If TreVeyon Henderson misses Week 17, Rhamondre Stevenson is a must-start in most lineups. The Jets have continued to struggle to stop opposing teams' rushing attacks.
  • Though the matchup might seem scary, the Broncos should be up by so much that RJ Harvey has a massive workload on Christmas Day.
  • With Quinshon Judkins undoubtedly out for the remaining weeks, Dylan Sampsom becomes an interesting RB to monitor if he comes back.

Half-PPR WR Week 17 lineup advice

  • DJ Moore continues to shine with no Luther Burden or Rome Odunze in the lineup. There is no reason not to start him in the fantasy championship.
  • It's been an up-and-down season for Tetairoa McMillan, but we've seen him make huge plays too many times to bench him in Week 17.
  • Having a player such as Brian Thomas Jr. Has to be torture for fantasy managers. There is no confidence in BTJ to start him in your championship week, yet you might not have any other options.

Half-PPR TE Week 17 lineup advice

  • Harold Fannin is available in 31% of leagues. If this is one of your leagues, pick him up and start him immediately. 
  • If you made it this far with Oronde Gadsden in your lineup, good for you. Gadsden has been extremely frustrating, but there are likely no better options. He is still playable, but it's not a comfortable start by any means.
