Baker Mayfield Remains Elite Option For Week 16

Friday, December 20, 5:07 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield (knee) has been removed from the injury report after getting in back-to-back full practice sessions. That means, Mayfield will be good to go for his plus-matchup against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 16. Mayfield has been one of the best fantasy QBs all season long. The 29-year-old has thrown seven touchdowns over his last two games and should remain an elite option for this weekend. Fantasy managers shouldn't have to think twice about plugging in Mayfield as a QB1 for Week 16.

Jayden Daniels Locked In QB1 Despite Tough Matchup

Friday, December 20, 7:07 PM

Washington Commanders rookie quarterback should be viewed as a QB1 in Week 16 despite the tough matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. Last weekend, in their victory over the New Orleans Saints, Daniels went 25-for-31 for 226 yards and two passing scores. He added 66 yards on 11 rushing attempts. During Weeks 12 and 13, Daniels averaged an impressive 29.5 PPR points per game, scoring seven touchdowns over this span. Daniels has thrown at least two passing touchdowns in each of his past three games. Given his elite rushing upside, fantasy managers should always consider him a must-start option. This weekend, he will have a rematch against a tough Philadelphia defense that has allowed the second-fewest PPR points to opposing quarterbacks this season. Even though the last time he faced them, he scored only 15.4 PPR points, he should always be locked into all lineups.
