Fantasy Players to Watch

Tom Brady, QB, New England Patriots

There's really not much to say here. You've probably seen analysis on here all week long talking about how dominant Brady is and has been.

Now he gets a Dolphins team in which the Patriots are, you know, a casual 17-point favorite against.

No big deal—Brady should just totally annihilate them.

Expect another multi-touchdown game and plenty of yards from Brady as the Patriots try to capture the No. 1 seed in the AFC.

          

Le'Veon Bell, RB, Pittsburgh Steelers

These "fantasy players to watch" are going to be either from the Patriots or the Steelers: fair warning.

Next up, Bell.

The Steelers are also huge favorites in this one—by 14 points—so the Steelers will utilize Bell plenty in this game.

Should they get up big against the Packers, expect the Steelers to let Bell take over.

Don't be surprised if Bell sees 30 touches in this one.

 

Antonio Brown, WR, Pittsburgh Steelers

Wait a minute, Bell.

Before you can start running all over the field, Brown needs to eat first.

In order for the Steelers to get up by enough to let Bell take over, the Steelers will look to put the ball in the air.

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster will miss Week 12 due to a hamstring injury.

 

This will be the Bell and Brown show all day long.

           

Rob Gronkowski, TE, New England Patriots

With Brady expected to do well in this game, it's only natural that his all-world tight end Gronk gets in on the action.

The Dolphins rank 25th in DVOA against tight ends, and that doesn't account for the type of player Gronk is—he's not your run-of-the-mill tight end.

Everyone on the Patriots offense will get their share of the pie. It's just that Gronk will get enough to be the TE1 in Week 12.

The Steelers and Patriots will run the top of positional rankings this week.
