Observations: Risers
Coming off the Seahawks’ Week 11 bye, Geno Smith has seen a 40 percent increase in the floor price of his CORE cards. With four SuperStar quarterbacks to choose from on the main slate and uncertainty around the health of Justin Fields, Geno looks like one of the top Reignmakers buys ahead of his Week 12 matchup against the porous Raiders’ defense.
Josh Jacobs has seen a 47 percent increase before his matchup against Seattle, who has given up the fifth most rushing yards on the season. With questionable tags on both Alvin Kamara and Joe Mixon leading up to Week 12, Jacobs stands out as one of the best non-SuperStars plays this weekend.
After a 38.5 DKFP performance against the Chargers, Travis Kelce has seen a 14 percent increase on his CORE cards. Not only are the Chiefs shorthanded at wide receiver, but they are also 15.5-point favorites over the Bryce Perkins-led Rams at home in Week 12. A fourth quarter blowout notwithstanding, Kelce should once again be the focal point of this high-powered offense.
Coming off the Dolphins’ Week 11 bye, Tua Tagovailoa has seen a 20 percent increase in his floor price. The Dolphins have the highest total on the slate at 30 points and are two touchdown favorites over the Kyle Allen-led Texans in Week 12.
In that same game, Jeff Wilson Jr. has seen a 43 percent increase preceding a matchup against the bottom-ranked Houston run defense. Coming off a 25.3 DKFP game in Week 10, and the potential absence of his teammate Raheem Mostert, it’s no surprise to see fantasy managers load up on Wilson this week.
Observations: Fallers
Both San Francisco teammates Jimmy Garoppolo and Christian McCaffrey have seen healthy declines after their floor prices were inflated leading up to the 49ers Monday night game in Mexico City. The high-powered 49ers offense is now at full strength, which might limit the upside of the individual pieces.
After exiting the Monday night game with a groin injury, Cardinals’ coach Kliff Kingsbury said that Rondale Moore will miss at least one week. This news coincides with Moore’s CORE floor price dropping by 70 percent this week.
After aggravating his ankle in the first half of the Chargers’ Week 11 matchup versus the Chiefs and not participating in practice so far this week, Mike Williams has seen a 50 percent decline in his CORE cards. With the return of Keenan Allen, and Josh Palmer performing nicely in Williams’ stead, the Chargers will still have several weapons leading up to their matchup against the Cardinals.
Tee Higgins has seen a slight decline following the news that Ja’Marr Chase is likely to return to action this Sunday against the Titans. Higgins had nine catches for 148 yards this past weekend without Chase, but could still be a fantasy asset in Week 12 against the Titans, who have given up the third most passing yards per game this year.
