Antonio Brown, WR, Pittsburgh Steelers

FanDuel Price: $8,800
Projected Points: 18.9

In one of the most exciting matchups of Week 16, Antonio Brown showed why many still consider him to be the best wide receiver in the league. He had his best game of the season, catching 14-of-19 targets for 185 yards and 2 touchdowns, for a whopping 37.5 FanDuel points to set a new season-high mark.

Now he gets an opportunity to follow up that performance in a rematch with the Cincinnati Bengals, who allowed him to catch 5 passes for 105 receiving yards and a touchdown on just 6 targets earlier this year. Our models project him to see more than a 100% increase in targets compared to that first meeting and currently have him slated to lead all wide receivers in receptions (7.9).

With the Pittsburgh Steelers currently listed with the second-highest implied total (30.0 points) of any team in Week 17, you will certainly want to get a piece of their offense in your lineup. And what better way to do that than the red-hot Brown, who has already proven himself against this Bengals defense.
