We’re into the final week of the fantasy football regular season, and regardless of where you stand in your league, it’s always a good feeling to conclude the regular season with a "W." Our Week 14 fantasy WR rankings for standard leagues are here to help ease your start ‘em, sit ‘em decisions at wide receiver in an ever-important week.
With six teams on bye in Week 14 (Colts, Packers, Bears, Saints, Commanders, and Falcons) we’ll most notably be without the services of Terry McLaurin, Chris Olave, Michael Pittman Jr., Drake London, Christian Watson, and Allen Lazard. Without a sizable chunk of the receiving pool, most fantasy owners will have to look toward their bench and the waiver wire for viable options.
Before we get to our favorite streaming picks, we’ll continue to keep an eye on the statuses of Jaylen Waddle (leg), Mike Williams (ankle), Kadarius Toney (hamstring), Brandin Cooks (calf), Rondale Moore (groin), Treylon Burks (head), and Courtland Sutton (hamstring) throughout the week to see if any suit up. All of those pass-catchers could be in fantasy owners' starting lineups if they're active, but if they’re not, it’s crucial to understand which WRs benefit from their absences.
WEEK 14 STANDARD RANKINGS:
QBs | RBs | TEs | D/STs | Kickers
Now, onto the streamers. Demarcus Robinson and Devin Duvernay (@ Steelers in Week 14), Jameson Williams and DJ Chark (vs. Vikings), Van Jefferson and Tutu Atwell (vs. Raiders), Zay Jones, Jamal Agnew, and Marvin Jones (@ Titans), Robert Woods and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (vs. Jaguars), K.J. Osborn (@ Lions), Mack Hollins (@ Rams), Kendall Hinton (vs. Chiefs), and Elijah Moore (@ Bills) are all available in over 45 percent of Yahoo leagues, and all have varying degrees of upside in 10- and 12-team leagues. Robinson, Woods, Duvernay, Chark, Jefferson, and Zay Jones could be streamed in shallower leagues, while the rest are better suited as dart throws in deeper formats.
WEEK 14 PPR RANKINGS:
QBs | RBs | WRs | TEs | D/STs | Kickers
Williams is the toughest one to figure, as he might have the highest ceiling, but after seeing zero targets in his NFL debut, it's tough to count on him for anything despite the highly favorable matchup. Like many of the other receivers on that list, having a top-10 matchup raises his ceiling, but he still has a low floor.
WEEK 14 FANTASY PICKS: Sleepers | Busts | Start 'em, sit 'em
For more widely owned "bubble" wideouts, Adam Thielen (@ Lions), Jakobi Meyers (@ Cardinals), Joshua Palmer (vs. Dolphins), Jerry Jeudy (vs. Chiefs), and Diontae Johnson and George Pickens (vs. Ravens) should be in starting lineups with favorable matchups. Palmer’s the one who could see his ranking drop if Mike Williams were to return, but he could still garner his fair share of targets even if Williams plays. Despite the Broncos' offensive woes, Jeudy’s still worthy of a starting spot in this matchup, especially if Sutton misses time.
WEEK 14 DFS: Best stacks | Best values
On the other end of the spectrum, Gabriel Davis (vs. Jets), D.J. Moore (@ Seahawks), and DeVonta Smith (vs. Giants) are on the bubble in shallow leagues thanks to unfavorable matchups. In deeper leagues, Donovan Peoples-Jones (@ Bengals), Tyler Boyd (vs. Browns), Isaiah McKenzie (vs. Jets), Darius Slayton (@ Eagles), Nico Collins (@ Cowboys), and Julio Jones (@ 49ers) are probably worth avoiding. You might also be worried about Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel (vs. Buccaneers) with Brock Purdy under center, but Purdy showed a decent connection with each last week, so we still think they're must-starts despite the tough matchup.
WEEK 14 DFS LINEUPS: DraftKings | FanDuel
As is always the case with these types of receivers, they could easily pop for a big play or short TD and pay off even in bad matchups, but their floors and ceilings are lower than usual. Considering all are already inconsistent, you shouldn't blindly slot them into your lineup. Check your options, see if there's a player with a better outlook, and act accordingly based on your projection and what you think you'll need.
Note: We'll be updating these WR rankings as needed throughout the week, so check back for the latest changes.
