Don't miss
WK 16 WR Fantasy Football Rankings
By Ray Tannock on December 20, 2012
Don’t count on Rice this week.
There’s quite a few names being listed as Questionable this week (as of late Wednesday night) but only one effects this week’s WR rankings.
Sidney Rice is dealing with a knee issue that wasn’t a part of his already growing list of ailments. He has already missed Wednesday’s practice, and even if he suits up, he isn’t expected to contribute much at all this weekend so I would advise making other plans.
Other than Rice, most of the Questionable issues listed this week has really just been due to extra rest, or players just dealing with the norm.
Let’s take a look at this week’s WR rankings.
| Rank | Player Name | Team | Matchup | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Calvin Johnson | DET | vs ATL | I think Johnson has a better chance for points than Marshall, but boy is it close. |
| 2 | Brandon Marshall | CHI | at ARI | |
| 3 | Julio Jones | ATL | at DET | This game could wind up a shootout. If White is limited, Jones benefits. |
| 4 | A.J. Green | CIN | at PIT | |
| 5 | Andre Johnson | HOU | vs MIN | |
| 6 | Demaryius Thomas | DEN | vs CLE | |
| 7 | Dez Bryant | DAL | vs NO | See, told yas the finger wasn't going to be an issue. |
| 8 | Wes Welker | NE | at JAC | |
| 9 | Randall Cobb | GB | vs TEN | |
| 10 | Victor Cruz | NYG | at BAL | |
| 11 | Vincent Jackson | TB | vs STL | |
| 12 | Reggie Wayne | IND | at KC | I really like this matchup. |
| 13 | Miles Austin | DAL | vs NO | |
| 14 | Steve Smith | CAR | vs OAK | |

| 23 | James Jones | GB | vs TEN | Jones won't have as big of a day as last week, but close to it |

| 48 | Rod Streater | OAK | at CAR | |
| 50 | Jeremy Kerley | NYJ | vs SD | I'd love to move him up, but look at the QB situation right now in NY |
