Top NFL DFS Picks for Week 17
Christian McCaffrey is the truest staple of fantasy conversation, and he has been featured in this article several times thanks to how elite his usage is, which leads to strong projections weekly. McCaffrey is the premier fantasy producer in the NFL right now, and he now gets an elite matchup here against Washington.
Rashee Rice is in a valuable spot here, as he is the top WR in an offense led by Patrick Mahomes, and quite frankly, he is fighting for the top spot as he is right on the heels of Travis Kelce. Rice saw 12 targets last week, and he now has 9+ targets in five straight games.
Rachaad White has quietly been one of the best fantasy producers in the entire NFL, he has been a model of consistency, and he has shown explosive upside at times. White now has 20+ carries in four straight games as well as 10 straight games with 16+ DraftKings points.
