If you’re in the daily fantasy sports (DFS) game, you need as many tools as possible to help set your lineup. Sure, there are some things you’ll disagree with, but not acknowledging stats or information is usually a mistake. FanDuel has acquired numberFire to help on some projections for NFL players for each week to give you another tool to help.
FanDuel daily fantasy projections, Week 16: Tight ends
This might not be the week to use Rob Gronkowski as Greg Olsen looks like a great play yet again. Here are the fantasy projections for FanDuel.

Here are the fantasy projections for Week 16:
Top tier
Rob Gronkowski is projected to be the top guy, but he’s $8,200 and is a bit much due to the bad matchup. Of course, Gronk can go off even against long odds, so he’s still an option and probably will have a low ownership in tournaments. Greg Olsen is projected to be in Gronk’s neighborhood and is much cheaper at $6,800. Jordan Reed is also in play at $6,900.
Bargains
If you don’t want to spend on Reed or Olsen, Travis Kelce is a nice option. He’s been very quiet throughout the year, but gets a great matchup against the Cleveland Browns.
Elite players with subpar matchups
This probably isn’t the best week to start Gronk while Olsen looks like a strong play.
