Winston to satisfy trophy seekers with top-five totalJameis Winston, TB, QB (53 percent started; Yahoo DFS: $37)Matchup: vs. HouVegas Line/Total: Hou -1.5, 53Fruitcake isn’t for everyone. It’s a strange concoction. A popular Christmas tradition in various world regions, it’s a baked good usually embedded with colorful dried or candied fruits and nuts. Some people find it tasty. Others think it’s utterly revolting. Yours truly isn’t fond of the traditional offering, but the Bahamas version, traditionally drenched in dark rum, is quite divine.Much like the celebratory dish, Winston isn’t for everyone. Though he’s immersed in a pass-happy offense and surrounded with suitable weapons, his boneheaded mistakes always make his weekly outputs adventurous. Currently No. 20 or lower in myriad completion percentage categories, Winston isn’t particularly efficient or even good. But his attacking, loose-cannon style elevates the profile. He ranks No. 1 in pass attempt distance and No. 2 in completed air yards. If you can stomach the mind-numbing turnovers, he typically rewards managers with frequent 20-25 point production.Last week, Winston, sans Mike Evans and battling through a fractured thumb, unleashed on the Lions to the tune of 458 yards and four touchdowns, his second 400-yard eruption. Again faced with a cakewalk matchup, home against Houston, he could come close to replicating Week 15’s numbers. Yes, even possibly without Chris Godwin. The Texans, burned through the air repeatedly this year, have yielded 7.6 pass yards per attempt, 281.1 pass yards per game, 2.1 passing touchdowns per contest and the third-most fantasy points to QBs. Also inside the top-10 in highest average depth of target (8.4) and total air yards allowed, Houston has its hands full trying to ground Bruce Arians’ airborne offense.Winston won’t whiff.Fearless Forecast: 384 passing yards, 3 passing touchdowns, 3 turnovers, 24.4 fantasy pointsMotivated Kerryon roars in returnKerryon Johnson, Det, RB (8% started; Yahoo DFS: $15)Matchup: at DenVegas Line/Total: Den -6.5, 37.5A ghost of fantasy games past, Johnson, recuperating from knee surgery, hasn’t recorded a snap since October 20. Detroit’s playoff hopes are dashed, but the RB is determined to return to his workhorse role this Sunday, telling the Detroit Free Press he simply “likes to play, man.” He added that a positive response over the Lions’ final two games would jumpstart his offseason.At the time of this writing, it’s undetermined whether Matt Patricia will green-light Kerryon for a road matchup with Denver, but if the rusher is indeed thrust back into the lineup, he’s worth strong consideration as a FLEX, at a minimum, in 12-team and deeper formats. It’s plausible he and Bo Scarbrough, assuming the rusher returns from injury, will work in tandem, but 13-15 touches feels right.When on the field this season, Kerryon’s advanced numbers have slipped. Netting a bland 53% success rate on his runs according to Sharp Football, he also registered significant declines in yards after contact per attempt (‘18: 3.32; ‘19: 2.60) and missed tackle percentage (‘18: 17.7; ‘19: 16.6). Still, antsy to finish 2019 on a high note, he’s plenty motivated to maximize his opportunities in the Mile High City, a place RBs have reached heights this season. The Broncos rank middle of the pack in adjusted line yards and fantasy points allowed to RBs, but 12 rushers eclipsed 11 fantasy points in a game against them.For people who love chasing rivers in poker, Kerryon could be the card to complete the pot-taking flush.Fearless Forecast: 14 carries, 48 rushing yards, 3 receptions, 16 receiving yards, 1 touchdown, 13.9 fantasy pointsSanders, titles, go together like chicken, wafflesMiles Sanders, Phi, RB (58% started; Yahoo DFS: $21)Matchup: vs. DalVegas Line/Total: Dal -2.5, 47.5On the Island of Misfit Toys, Sanders, at least earlier this season, was a Charlie-in-the-box. Collecting dust on managers’ shelves in shallow leagues, he was only employed as a sporadic FLEX option or bye-week filler. But now promoted into a starring role, he’s the shiny toy all little fantasy girls and boys want to play with. Yukon Cornelius, Hermey, and Rudolph most definitely approve.As predicted weeks ago, Sanders is in the midst of a breakout month. His December schedule was a treasure trove of soft matchups. Given his terrific three-down skill set and Jordan Howard’s prolonged absence, he, to no one’s shock, is taking advantage of the ratcheted opportunity. So far this month, he’s totaled 115.3 yards per contest on 22.0 touches per game, hitting the pylons three times while forcing a missed tackle on 18.5% of his grips. As with most talented rookies late in the season, he’s peaking at the perfect time.Sanders is sure to play a pivotal role for managers desiring a trophy under the tree. His Week 16 matchup, a home tilt versus Dallas, is a somewhat favorable one. This season, the Cowboys have conceded 4.0 yards per carry, 125.1 total yards per game and 12 combined touchdowns to RBs. They also rank dead last in power-run success rate allowed. Overly generous to pass-catching backs — they’ve given up 5.8 receptions per game to the position — Sanders should chew up real estate especially as a short-field receiver.Ride the rook.Fearless Forecast: 17 carries, 70 rushing yards, 5 receptions, 23 receiving yards, 1 touchdown, 17.8 fantasy pointsFuller to reward fantasy’s ‘filthy animals’Will Fuller, Hou, WR (20% started; Yahoo DFS: $21)Matchup: at TBVegas Line/Total: Hou -1.5, 53In the timeless holiday classic, Home Alone, Kevin McAllister is forced to confront multiple fears — slapstick burglars, eluding law enforcement post-toothbrush shoplifting, Old Man Marley, “Angels with Filthy Souls.” His biggest solicitude, however, is the overactive bladder of his cousin Fuller. Too much Pepsi and he, notoriously, wetted the bed.With trophy aspirations on the line, Houston’s Fuller won’t leave his bedfellows smelling like ammonia.Bothered by a nagging hamstring injury, the receiver has logged another uneven year. Missing a handful of games and limited in others, he’s averaged 10.7 fantasy points per game in .5 PPR, but crossed the 10-fantasy-point line in a game just twice. His 14-217-3 outburst against Atlanta cooks the books. When on the field, he’s still one of the game’s most electric field stretchers. His 2.07 yards per route run (WR16) and 14.9 average depth of target (WR14) rank inside the top-20 among qualifying wideouts. Totaling nine touchdowns in the last 17 games with Deshaun Watson under center, he and his QB usually work in harmony.If his hamstring doesn’t randomly explode, Fuller is a very attractive WR2/WR3 in 12-team formats. His opponent, Tampa, has allowed the eighth-highest aDOT (8.6) and second-most total air yards this season. Whether lining up in the slot (30.9 slot%) or outside, Fuller and his jet-fueled wheels should catch, sprint, and score at least once. DBs Sean Murphy-Bunting and Carlton Davis have given up a combined 11 touchdowns to assignments this year.Fearless Forecast: 5 receptions, 91 receiving yards, 1 touchdown, 17.6 fantasy pointsNew York’s Slay to deliver presents in WashingtonDarius Slayton, NYG, WR (37% started; Yahoo DFS: $19)Matchup: at WasVegas Line/Total: Was -2.5, 42Fee. Fi. Fo. Fum. This Giant won’t be a fantasy bum. Blossoming at the most opportune time, Slayton and Eli Manning have established an unbreakable on-field bond. New York’s downfield specialist has looked the part of an emerging No. 1. Since Week 10, he’s enticed 41 total targets, catching 27 balls for 417 yards while crossing the chalk five times. Tallying a fantastic 15.7 yards per catch and 10.2 yards per target over that span, he’s officially entered the WR2 discussion. Those savvy fantasy managers who can look past the name, appropriately weigh the opportunity, and properly gauge recent production could employ a receiver seemingly destined for another double-digit output.This week, Slayton and the Giants square off with Washington, a franchise in its usual late-seas
