Fantasy Football Player Notes
Week 17 Half PPR Rankings

5.
James Cook III
RB - (vs . PHI)
All season, DeVon Achane was crowned the most underrated RB1. That still may be true, but James Cook is giving him a run for his money. With 14 touchdowns on the season, and five in his last two games, Cook is getting hot at the right time for fantasy championships. Over his last six weeks, he has five games inside the top 10 at the position and now faces a surprisingly vulnerable Eagles defense. The Eagles are allowing the seventh most fantasy points to the RB position on the season. Most notably, they are allowing the sixth most fantasy points to RBs in the red zone. With 80-plus rushing yards in all of his last five games, with four topping 100 yards, he is the perfect mix of floor and ceiling for your fantasy championship match.

Khalil Shakir
WR - (vs . PHI)
Khalil Shakir has been a decent flex for most of the season as the WR44 in fantasy points per game, with nine weekly outings as a top-36 wide receiver and three weeks as a top-24 option. Shakir has a 19.5% target share with 45.6 receiving yards per game, 1.91 yards per route run, and a 23.4% first-read share. Shakir leads Buffalo with 11 red zone targets while kicking in six deep targets. Cooper DeJean remains a nickel corner that I don't want to test for fantasy purposes. Since Week 12, Philly has allowed the fewest PPR points per target and the second-fewest receiving yards per game to slot receivers.
