Start:

Emmanuel Sanders, NO, vs. MIN (Fri.)

Michael Thomas has been placed on IR, meaning he will not be back until the playoffs. What it does mean, however, is that Emmanuel Sanders is the No. 1 receiver for the remainder of the season. We like the prospects of him balling out against the Vikings this week.

Antonio Brown, TB, @ DET

Antonio Brown is feeling it. Now that he is playing against the Detroit Lions, only expect big numbers that can give you a massive championship win. AB is back.

Cole Beasley, BUF, @ NE

If you were smart enough to pick up Cole Beasley during the season, you know how good he has been. That won’t stop against the New England Patriots either. Buffalo struggled earlier in the season against New England, but Beasley showed up and should again against the Patriots.

Sit:

Tyler Lockett, SEA, vs. LAR

Tyler Lockett has been hit-or-miss all season long, and a matchup with the Los Angeles Rams isn’t one we would be jumping for joy at. Lockett is a tough sit, but one worth it when you have a more consistent option to put in the game.

Sterling Shepard, NYG, @ BAL

Baltimore has been playing incredible as of late, and the Giants simply do not have the consistent play to get you excited. Sterling Shepard should be on the bench in championship week, as he can’t give you the numbers to win.

Marquise Brown, BAL, vs. NYG

“Hollywood” has been feeling it as of late but that does not mean we think he should be starting for you moving forward. It’s merely the truth, as Brown is the ultimate hit or miss play all season long.
