How fast has this season gone by to you? In most cases week 17 is easier to navigate then other weeks during the season. Playoff spots are locked up. Several good players are rested in preparation of the actual NFL playoffs. Thus, creating massive value with backup players!
It has been a wild season. So many ups and so many downs yet we’ve made it.
Let me swift through this week for you! Patrick Mahomes has already been given the day off! So has Ben Roethlisberger in Pittsburgh. Going to be an odd Sunday!
QUARTERBACK
What’s shocking is the fact I keep writing “new feature” in Bottom of the Barrel to mention the most expensive player at each position. Yet here we are, last week of the regular season. That is how fast this season has gone!
Lamar Jackson BAL @ CIN (14th)(FD-$9,000)(DK-$8,000)
Here are some cheaper options at QB in week 17!
Russell Wilson SEA @ SF (7th)(FD-$7,500)(DK-$7,300)
Mr. Unlimited has made his way into Bottom of the Barrel? Trust me, I am just as shocked as you are! Seattle has already locked up the NFC West division. Let us hope HC Pete Carrol opens the playbook to get the guys ready for the playoffs!
Drew Brees NO @ CAR (16th)(FD-$7,400)(DK-$5,900)
Drew looked sharper in last week’s contest after his extended layoff. This week will be all about knocking the rust off and getting to sharpen the blade for the NFC playoffs.

RUNNING BACK
Below is the most expensive player at RB in week 17. Just helps me put the B&B player prices in perspective!
Dalvin Cook MIN @ DET (31st)(FD-$10,400)(DK-$9,200)
On Wednesday December 30th news broke that Cook was leaving the team after a family emergency. His father has died. Our prayers are with Dalvin and his family currently.
Here are some cheaper options I like for week 17.
