Updated Week 13 Fantasy Football Rankings – Sunday, 11/30
Not a ton of news this morning, just some more general vibes from the Sunday AM show that included the following risers and fallers in my Week 13 Fantasy Football Rankings:
–Darren Waller is expected to play, and is my TE12. He had 4 TDs in three full games, and was filling that “Jonnu Smith” inspired role very well.
–Marvin Harrison Jr. is officially in, but I am still much higher on Michael Wilson in Week 13 Fantasy Football
Saturday, 11/29
-Omarion Hampton is OUT for Week 13 Fantasy Football. Kimani Vidal will be the clear feature RB in Week 13. While he’s been boom-or-bust, Vidal will be a high-end RB2 against the pathetic Raiders. The Chargers are home favorites and should roll, giving Vidal a positive script to be fed.
–Baker Mayfield is now trending towards playing, which is great news for him plus the passing weapons, especially Emeka Egbuka. Chris Godwin is also expected to shoulder far more snaps in Week 13, and is suddenly very intriguing with Mayfield under center.
–Brian Thomas is off the injury report and will make his return. It’s been a rough season, but the Titans are a perfect opponent to get his season back on track. He’s in play as a low-end WR2. Meanwhile, Jakobi Meyers and Parker Washington take some decent hits in the Week 13 Fantasy Football Rankings.
–Terry McLaurin will make his return in Week 13. Unfortunately, it’s a date with a Broncos defense surrendering the fewest FPs to WRs, plus Marcus Mariota will be under center. McLaurin is a fade unless desperate. Deebo Samuel‘s stock takes a hit as well.
-Trey Benson will be OUT for Week 13 Fantasy Football. As such, we will likely have the underwhelming duo of Bam Knight and Michael Carter (Emari Demercado is OUT). However, Knight is also listed as questionable. If he is ruled out, Carter would see nearly every touch, and actually would be in play as a low-end RB2 / Flex.
-Dalton Kincaid returned to limited practices this week. The Steelers are dream Week 13 Fantasy Football matchup, so if Kincaid is in, he will rank inside my Top-10 TEs.
-Additionally, Darren Waller might make his return. He scored in all 3 games he was active, and the Saints are another juicy spot. He would be a low-end TE1 if he is ruled in.
Thursday – Happy Thanksgiving!
Some news related to the Thanksgiving Day Slate + Week 13 Fantasy Football from yesterday:
–Josh Jacobs is IN for Week 13 Fantasy Football on Thanksgiving. Detroit’s Run Defense is 6th in DVOA and allowing the third fewest points to RBs, but Jacobs is still a borderline must-play as a near-lock for a TD.
–Jayden Reed is OUT for Week 13. He has yet to be activated, and will be out until at least Week 14 now.
–Justice Hill is OUT for Week 13. Keaton Mitchell is an intriguing stash and desperation RB plug-in considering the soft matchup vs. the Bengals (2nd most FPs to RBs).
–Bucky Irving is expected to be on a pitch count in Week 13. OC Josh Grizzard compared Bucky Irving’s potential workload in Week 13 against the Cardinals to that of Chris Godwin in Week 12, who was only on the field for 25-of-70 offensive snaps. Irving is a volatile RB2 who takes a dip in the rankings. I’d rather wait-and-see if I can.
–Marvin Harrison Jr. returned to practice and is on track to play in Week 13. I still vastly prefer Michael Wilson in Fantasy Football, who OC Drew Petzing said he will “continue to put higher in the progression” after his 18 and 15 target blow ups. Wilson falls a few spots, but I am still +4 ECR.
Wednesday, 11/26
–Aaron Rodgers and CJ Stroud are both expected to play. Both have been added to the Week 13 Fantasy Football Rankings. None of the ancillary weapons gain much value from this; in fact, the Texans’ guys in particular may take a slight hit, as Davis Mills has been outplaying Stroud.
–Isiah Pacheco will play on Thanksgiving, which muddies up the Chiefs backfield. Kareem Hunt has been impressive in Pacheco’s absence, including a 30 carry, 104 yard, 1 TD (RB8) performance last week. He has been the RB11, RB16, RB19, and RB8 in Pacheco’s absence. Unfortunately, prior to Pacheco’s injury, Hunt had been outside the Top-45 RBs in 5-of-7 games. While I do think Hunt’s more stable than before, I do think his floor and ceiling took a decent hit. He falls eight spots in the Week 13 Fantasy Football Rankings.
Tuesday, 11/25
– Baker Mayfield is likely to miss Week 13 Fantasy Football with a low-grade shoulder sprain. All passing game products fall, including Emeka Egbuka, who has been highly disappointing after his rocket-fast rookie year start.
– Brock Purdy looked ATROCIOUS on Monday Night Football, and takes a decent stumble down the Week 13 Fantasy Football Rankings. Cleveland’s defense is no joke.
–Jaxson Dart looks ready to return in Week 13, and has replaced Jameis Winston (sadly) in the rankings.
–JJ McCarthy is (conveniently) in concussion protocol. I have no clue who Max Brosmer is, but it’d be hard to be worse than McCarthy so far. Still, both Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison remain tough to trust.
