Super Bowl 57 RB Rankings:
1. Miles Sanders | PHI
2. Isiah Pacheco | KC
3. Kenneth Gainwell | PHI
4. Jerick McKinnon | KC
5. Clyde Edwards-Helaire | KC
6. Boston Scott | PHI
It’s difficult to know what to make of the RB position this week. We’ve seen lots of different usage patterns of Sanders, Pacheco, Gainwell, and McKinnon this season. The added wild card for the Kansas City Chiefs is the return of Clyde Edwards-Helaire.
Sanders, Pacheco, and Gainwell have seen the most consistent work over the last two games, making them the most valuable options among RBs. McKinnon has seen a decrease in usage over the last two weeks. He has as high of a ceiling as any of the other three main options, but his floor is the lowest of the group.
Super Bowl 57 WR Rankings:
1. A.J. Brown | PHI
2. DeVonta Smith | PHI
3. Kadarius Toney | KC
4. Marquez Valdes-Scantling | KC
5. JuJu Smith-Schuster | KC
6. Justin Watson | KC
7. Skyy Moore | KC
8. Quez Watkins | PHI
9. Zach Pascal | PHI
The impact of the Philadelphia Eagles‘ passing game has been somewhat reduced in the past two weeks. However, with an inexperienced secondary for Kansas City, both Brown and Smith have fantastic potential this week.
The uncertainty among the Chiefs receivers also increases the value for Brown and Smith. Last week, MVS stood out in the absence of the other receivers. However, Smith-Schuster and Toney should be back this week, clouding the picture. Toney is the one that should see the most touches, giving him the best floor-to-ceiling ratio.
Super Bowl 57 TE Rankings:
1. Travis Kelce | KC
2. Dallas Goedert | PHI
3. Noah Gray | KC
It’s hard to bet against Kelce with 25 targets in the last two weeks. Even though teams know the ball is going to him frequently, he’s close to impossible to stop for a full 60 minutes. Even when a team slows him down, Kelce usually manages to score at least 6-8 fantasy points. A bad week for him is a solid week for most tight ends.
From a usage perspective, it’s harder to rely on Goedert, as he’s only seen 11 targets in the past two weeks. Nevertheless, he’s often the forgotten man in the Eagles’ passing game when it comes to opponents’ game plans. Thus, Goedert could be a difference-making option for fantasy this week.
