Coming off a crazy and unpredictable week, let’s hope for a little more routine and predictable outcomes in Week 16. As we enter the last few weeks of the regular season, keep in mind which teams are fighting for a playoff spot and which teams might just be mailing it in.
For GPPs, we’ll want to get most of our passing game stacks from matchups involving two teams that are fighting for a playoff spot and hope they get into a back-and-forth shootout. When it comes to rostering running backs, it is okay to pick on the teams fighting for draft position instead of the playoffs as they often roll over as they fall behind, which leads to multiple rushing scores for the big Vegas favorites.

The players below are ones I’m looking at for large-field tournament considerations for Week 16 full slates:
Quarterbacks
DraftKings
Matthew Stafford (LAR): $6,700 vs. MIN
It seems like I pick on the Vikings’ secondary every week regardless of the potency of the offense they are facing. However, this week they face one of the top passing offenses in the league, with Stafford and company traveling to Minnesota in a game with one of the highest Vegas totals of the week.
