Mike Evans, WR, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

FanDuel Price: $8,400
Projected Points: 15.4

Among all wide receivers this season, Mike Evans trails only Nelson, and Antonio Brown -- who will not play this week -- in total FanDuel points. Evans is also one of just two players averaging more targets per game (10.8) than Nelson, as he is tied with Beckham for the league lead in that category.

He is coming off of a 19.2-FanDuel-point performance in Week 16 and is in a great spot for another big day in Week 17.

Evans will get a rematch with the Carolina Panthers, who allowed him to catch 6 passes for 89 yards and a touchdown for a total of 17.9 FanDuel points in Week 5 of this season. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are tied for the fourth-highest implied total of any team this weekend and are favored by six points at home, which bodes well for Evans. He has averaged 16.47 points at home this season, making him one of our top targets for the final week of the season.
