Fantasy Football Week 17 Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em WSOC TV [Video]

Set your Week 17 fantasy football lineups with Dalton Del Don’s key start/sit advice for every game on the slate.

Los Angeles Chargers @ New England Patriots

Start: Ladd McConkey

McConkey and Justin Herbert should be healthier coming off extra rest, and the rookie wideout ranks eighth in yards per route run this season. McConkey’s target rate has jumped to 27.7%, and he ranks top-five in fantasy points per target versus man coverage, which New England has used at the league’s second-highest rate (39.1%). Christian Gonzalez will likely shadow Quentin Johnston, so McConkey is a top-20 WR this week.

Sit Drake Maye, who sports a 3:7 TD:INT ratio over 268 dropbacks versus zone coverage (h/t TruMeda), which Los Angeles has used at the league’s second-highest rate (77.8%). Quarterbacks also typically run less against zone.
