Jaylen Waddle has made his case to be at the top of these rankings. Check out our latest rankings as the fantasy playoffs begin and these rookies play critical roles in championship runs.
1.) Jaylen Waddle (Previous Rank: 1)
Miami’s WR1 continues to put up impressive numbers. He’s a must-start each week and is now T-2nd in the NFL in receptions.
Advice: START
2.) Najee Harris (Previous Rank: 3)
Najee Harris’ usage continues to be elite. He had a bounce-back performance against the Vikings, scoring two touchdowns. Harris is an RB1 in every sense of the term.
Advice: START
3.) Javonte Williams (Previous Rank: On the Bubble)
We put Javonte Williams ‘On the Bubble’ prior to Melvin Gordon being ruled out for his Week 13 matchup against the Chiefs. Williams has now shown what he can do without Gordon in the lineup (187 TOT yards, 1 TD). Williams deserves to be on the rise in these power rankings.
Advice: START
4.) Ja’Marr Chase (Previous Rank: 4)
For the first time in five weeks, Ja’Marr Chase had over 50 receiving yards against the Chargers. Still, Chase has been missing-in-action (for the most part) since his massive game in Week 7. Details in the tweet below:
Advice: START
5.) Amon-Ra St. Brown (Previous Rank: N/A)
The number of pass-catchers in Detroit is dwindling by the week. Plus, St. Brown is coming off his best performance of the season: 10/86/1. The Denver defense is tough, but St. Brown could be startable as a desperation FLEX.
Advice: START
6.) Pat Freiermuth (Previous Rank: 6)
The Muth was a punch away from having a two-touchdowns performance on Thursday Night Football. He’ll continue to operate as one of Big Ben’s favorite red-zone targets. He’s currently T-4th in the NFL with seven touchdowns.
Advice: START
7.) Kyle Pitts (Previous Rank: 9)
Bold prediction time: This is the week that Kyle Pitts gets his second career touchdown reception. We *must* believe.
Advice: START
8.) Chuba Hubbard (Previous Rank: N/A)
Chuba is back with CMC out once again. It’ll be interesting to see how he’s used with Offensive Coordinator Joe Brady also out for the season.

9.) Jermar Jefferson (Previous Rank: N/A)
D’Andre Swift is out. Jamaal Williams is out. Not exactly sure how this backfield will play out in Week 14, but Jermar Jefferson could be in line for a solid workload against the Broncos.
Advice: (Desperation) START
10.) Rashod Bateman (Previous Rank: 10)
He had one target against the Steelers and only had a 45% snap percentage. Bateman is only on this list because of so many injuries and byes.
