The San Diego Chargers host the Oakland Raiders in what looks like Norv Turner's final game with the team. With nothing to play for and a dearth of talent on both teams, there aren't many compelling fantasy options here. In order to help you set the optimal playoff lineup, we've got player projections courtesy of numberFire.
Raiders vs. Chargers: Fantasy football projections featuring Darren McFadden, Danario Alexander, Philip Rivers
We check out the pertinent fantasy projections for the Week 17 matchup between the Raiders and Chargers.

Oakland Raiders
Terrelle Pryor is starting his first NFL game this week. He has a high ceiling and dynasty players should be intrigued, but I can't recommend starting him this week. Look for him to lean heavily on Darren McFadden, who's trying to finish another disappointing season on a high note.
San Diego Chargers
Philip Rivers is wrapping up a miserable season, but Oaklan's secondary has been a great fantasy matchup all year. If you're desperate for a QB2 with most starters resting this week, you could do worse than Rivers. Ronnie Brown and Jackie Battle will split time in the backfield again. Neither of them are decent fantasy options.
