Fantasy Football Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em: Week 17 Predictions

Start: Cam Meredith, Chicago Bears


Opponent: at Minnesota Vikings


Since Matt Barkley took over as starter, Meredith is averaging 9.2 targets, 5.8 receptions and 79.4 yards with two touchdowns in five games. And since Alshon Jeffery returned to the lineup and took some of the pressure off, Meredith has gone bonkers for 25 targets, 18 receptions, 239 yards and a touchdown in two games. The Vikings looked like a secondary to avoid for much of the season, but they have been stumbling down the stretch and appear to have mostly given up, making Meredith a strong start in the last week of the season.
