Deshaun Watson had a lackluster week against the Tennessee Titans when he threw for 243 yards and 2 TDs while also throwing 2 INTs. This was a slightly tougher matchup for Watson and although it wasn’t the incredible performance you expect he still put up approx. 16 points. In week 16 Watson will face the Buccaneers who are the 7th best matchup in the league for oppsoing QBs and as of late it seems like they may be the BEST matchup. Watson should bounce back in a HUGE way in week 16. Fantasy Football Projection: 287 yards 1.7 TDs passing 37 yards 0.3 TDs rushing

Ryan Tannehill continues to impress with his performances each and every week. In week 15 he took on the Houston Texans and threw for 279 yards and 2 TDs while rushing for another TD. Tannehill has performed well above expectation for fantasy owners and should continue into week 16 when he plays the Saints. The Saints allow the 12th most points per game to fantasy football QBs which is another reason Tannehill will continue to be a QB1 for week 16. Fantasy Football Projection: 283 yards 2.1 TDs

  20. Devonta Freeman ATL vs. JAX

Chris Carson had a great week in week 15 when he faced the Carolina Panthers and carved them up for 133 yards and 2 TDs. Without Rashad Penny in the backfield to split carries Carson is again getting the full workload and should be a top option at the position for the remainder of the year. Carson will face the Cardinals in week 16 who are inthe middle of the league against opposing RBs. Although this is a more difficult matchup than week 15, I expect Carson’s volume alone will vault him into the top 5 at the position. Fantasy Football Projection: 90 yards 0.5 TDs 4 receptions 32 yards 0.2 TDs receiving

Joe Mixon is being absolutely fed in the Bengals offense and he is making the beginning of the season look like a minor blip in the radar compared to his future. Against the toughest run defense in the league, the New England Patriots, Mixon had 25 carries for 136 yards as well as 2 receptions for 20 yards. If this is the kind of output you get from Mixon agaisnt the toughest defense in the league I can not wait to see him against the Miami Dolphins in week 16. The Dolphins are allowing the 7th most points to fantasy RBs this is another great matchup for Mixon making him a top 6 play this week. Fantasy Football Projection: 93 yards 0.6 TDs rushing 3 receptions 23 yards 0.1 TD receiving

  22. D.K. Metcalf SEA vs. ARI
  23. Will Fuller HOU at TB
  24. Kenny Golladay DET at DEN
  25. Robert Woods LAR at SF

A.J. Brown continues to roll with QB Ryan Tannehill behind center. Brown put up 8 receptions for 114 yards and 1 TD against a struggling Houson Texans defense. It is clear that Brown is officially Tannehill’s top target and the rookie WR is extremely talented. I expect Brown will keep up his pace in week 16 when he faces the Saints who are allowing the 8th most points to the WR position. Brown will be a low end WR 1 to high end WR2 in week 16 without question. Fantasy Football Projection: 6 receptions 72 yards 0.5 TDs

Breshad Perriman blew up in week 15 without fellow WR Mike Evan and Chris Godwin also leaving early due to injury. Perriman had 5 receptions for 113 yards and 3 TDs agaisnt the helpless Detroit Lions defense. Perriman took full advantage of the extra targets and the amazing matchup and will now be the WR1 going forward. He will face the Houston Texans in week 16 who are in the middle of the pack againt opposing WRs and should be a matchup that Perriman can benefit from once again. Fantasy Football Projection: 6 receptions 72 yards 0.4 TDs

  1. Travis Kelce KC at CHI
  2. Zach Ertz PHI vs. DAL
  3. George Kittle SF vs. LAR
  4. Tyler Higbee LAR at SF
  5. Darren Waller OAK at LAC
  6. Mark Andrews BAL at CLE
  7. Austin Hooper ATL vs. JAX
  8. Hunter Henry LAC vs. OAK
  9. Jared Cook NO at TEN
  10. Jacob Hollister SEA vs. ARI
  11. Jack Doyle IND vs. CAR
  12. O.J. Howard TB vs. HOU

Tyler Higbee continues to destroy the tight end fantasy landscape week in and week out. Higbee has strung together 3 straight games of over 100 yards at the TE position which is almost unheard of! In week 15 Higbee had 12 receptions for 111 yards agaisnt the Dallas Cowboys who are one of the easier matchups for the TE position. This week will be much more difficult when he faces the 49ers who are the 3rd toughest matchup for TEs. I still expect Higbee to be in the top 5 at the position this week. Fantasy Football Projection: 5 receptions 75 yards 0.5 TDs
