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: Wide receivers
Antonio Brown is going to be a fixture in fantasy lineups this week. Here are the rest of the projections.

Here are the fantasy projections for Week 16:
Top tier
Another week, another time Antonio Brown is projected as the top receiver. He gets a great matchup against a soft Baltimore Ravens defense. He’s the most expensive player, but you have to use him this week. DeAndre Hopkins against the Tennessee Titans and Mike Evans against the Chicago Bears round out the top three.
Bargains
Kamar Aiken’s price at $6,600 still hasn’t caught up to his upside, so he’s still a guy to consider this week. Eddie Royal is also back and is a very good buy at $4,700. Dez Bryant is out, so Terrance Williams has value at just $4,800. Rueben Randle is also someone to use with Odell Beckham Jr. out this week.
Elite players with subpar matchups
This isn’t the week to use Julio Jones against the Carolina Panthers. Besides him, al the other high-end guys are in play -- not counting Beckham Jr, obviously.
