Fantasy Football Player Notes
Week 17 PPR Rankings
|
7.
De'Von Achane
RB - (vs . TB)
It may not have been the explosive week we hoped for when Achane took on the Bengals last week, but he has kept his streak of top 16 finishes alive. With all 15 games inside the top 16 at the position, he has, without a doubt, been the most consistent fantasy RB on the season. Even with Quinn Ewers under center, Achane is the motor of this offense. This week, he has another great matchup against the Bucs, who are allowing the 13th most fantasy points to the RB position. In a game that is primed for plenty of touchdowns, Achane should keep his incredible season going right to the end.

Jaylen Waddle
WR - (vs . TB)
Since Week 5, Jaylen Waddle has been the WR20 in fantasy points per game with a 24.2% target share, 65.9 receiving yards per game, 2.77 yards per route run, and a 32.2% first-read share. In those 11 games, Waddle has had six red zone targets and 13 deep targets. He's been outstanding on a per-route basis. The problem with the Miami offense these days is its run-centric nature, which caps Waddle's volume weekly. Waddle is a strong WR2 this week with WR1 upside if Quinn Ewers can have another solid performance. Since Week 10, Tampa Bay has allowed the tenth-most PPR points per target and the tenth-most receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers.

Darren Waller
TE - (vs . TB)
Last week, Darren Waller saw his route share dip to 51.6% with a 16.7% target share, 40 receiving yards, 2.50 yards per route run, and a 17.4% first-read share. Waller is essentially the Dalton Kincaid of South Beach now. He's locked in a run-first offense with a part-time role in the offense. In his last four games, Waller has had three red zone targets and four deep targets. That's enough high cholesterol usage and efficiency to propel Waller to a TE1 finish this week, but there's risk here. There's no doubt about that. Since Week 10, Tampa Bay has allowed the sixth-most yards per target and the fifth-most fantasy points per game to tight ends.
