Week 17 Fantasy Football Rankings


Below are Week 17 fantasy football rankings based on potential performance in this week's games for quarterback, running back, wide receiver, tight end, kicker and team defense.

Quarterback


1 Cam Newton, Carolina at Atlanta
2 Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay vs. Detroit ...Rodgers tweaked his calf but in this must win game have to assume he will playing with it all on the line
3 Matt Ryan, Atlanta vs. Carolina ...Atlanta vs. Carolina for the NFC South
4 Peyton Manning, Denver vs. Oakland
5 Eli Manning, N.Y. Giants vs. Philadelphia
6 Andrew Luck, Indianapolis at Tennessee ...What an epic Week 16 fantasy football letdown from Andrew Luck. The Colts are locked in as the #4 seed in the AFC with nothing to play for in Week 17 other than getting back in a groove
7 Drew Brees, New Orleans at Tampa Bay ...How will the Saints play (take out their frustrations or pack it in) after being eliminated from the playoffs last week
8 Russell Wilson, Seattle vs. St. Louis
9 Ben Roethlisberger, Pittsburgh vs. Cincinnati
10 Ryan Tannehill, Miami vs. N.Y. Jets
11 Matthew Stafford, Detroit at Green Bay
12 Tom Brady, New England vs. Buffalo ...Expect the Patriots starters to open the game but they have the AFC #1 seed secure and will likely sit somewhat early (although Bill Belichick has shown a tendency to play his starters in previous years)
13 Teddy Bridgewater, Minnesota vs. Chicago
14 Robert Griffin III, Washington vs. Dallas
15 Andy Dalton, Cincinnati at Pittsburgh
16 Colin Kaepernick, San Francisco vs. Arizona
17 Josh McCown, Tampa Bay vs. New Orleans
18 Tony Romo, Dallas at Washington ...Dallas has won the NFC East so Romo may sit early but he could tear it up before that as Washington allows the most points to opposing QBs
19 Philip Rivers, San Diego at Kansas City
20 Mark Sanchez, Philadelphia at N.Y. Giants


Running Back

1 Le'Veon Bell, Pittsburgh vs. Cincinnati
2 Arian Foster, Houston vs. Jacksonville

9 LeSean McCoy, Philadelphia at N.Y. Giants
10 Joique Bell, Detroit at Green Bay
11 Justin Forsett, Baltimore vs. Cleveland
12 Mark Ingram, New Orleans at Tampa Bay ...Ingram needs 93 yards for a 1,000-yard rushing season and I bet he gets it

14 Andre Williams, N.Y. Giants vs. Philadelphia
15 Matt Asiata, Minnesota vs. Chicago
16 Jonathan Stewart, Carolina at Atlanta
17 Alfred Morris, Washington vs. Dallas

21 Reggie Bush, Detroit at Green Bay
22 Devonta Freeman, Atlanta vs. Carolina ...Freeman could draw the start with Steven Jackson battling a quad injury
