There are only a few weeks left in the fantasy football season, and right now there are a few

players who are currently standing out above the rest. So in this video, we're going to break down the players who are actually winning fantasy leagues right now and skyrocketing up the rankings before the season ends. Now let's start with the Bucks veteran wide receiver Mike Evans because earlier this season when he had his injury, it looked like his year might be over. And since he's like over 32 years old, maybe even his career would start to go towards a downfall. Maybe that's a little

bit harsh, but you get what I'm saying. The good years of his career would go away. And he kind of just came back and said, yeah, right, Sal. He returned sooner than expected on a short week Thursday night football last week and goes for six catches, 132 yards, averaging 22 yards per catch.

He puts up over 16 fantasy points at the start of the fantasy postseason. I'm not sure a lot of people trusted him enough in this matchup coming back from an injury to actually play him. But if he did or if you were forced to play him because you didn't have anybody else, he came through for you. I mean, heck, in PPR formats, especially if you have a bonus, he probably put up over 20 points. And it was good to see that he wasn't all that limited.

He ran 70% of the routes.

Now, it's not his normal role.

He's usually... in PPR formats, especially if you have a bonus, he probably put up over 20 points. And it was good to see that he wasn't all that limited.

He ran 70% of the routes. Now, it's not his normal role. He's usually up there on the field for almost every play like Chris Gobman was this past week running 95% of the routes. But more importantly, 36% of the targets. Baker Mayfield clearly missed throwing to Mike Evans over the past month to month and a half because right when he returns, he was hyper-focused on Mike Evans,

36% of the targets is elite. It is great. He ran a possible 28 of 40 routes. And here's the thing. There was like no ramp-up period. If this is what you got right away, now he gets the mini-buy since they played on Thursday night football. He's going to get 10 days of rest he He'll probably be a full go, like nearly 100% of the snaps and routes run in week 16. And it wasn't Chris

Godwin who ended up taking a hit here, right? We also saw, by the way, we also saw Jalen McMillan returned from a serious neck injury. That was good to see. He ended up playing about 50% of the routes in this game. And it actually hurt

Ameca Abuka the most, the rookie wide receiver who had a hot start to the season,

the first round pick. Here's the deal. A meca Abuka routes in this game and it actually hurt ameka abuka the most the rookie wide receiver who had a

hot start to the season the first round pick here's the deal ameka abuka hasn't been great lately

over his last nine games he's only averaging nine fantasy points per game now during that time

he's been seeing nine targets per game just hasn't been producing but now those targets are likely

going to come down because yeah mike evans is back and chris goblin over the past couple of weeks has been getting ramp back up. Like I showed you earlier, Chris Godwin just ran 95% of the routes. Meanwhile, Emeka Buka, 63% of the routes, his lowest route participation in basically the past two months of the season that's with Mike Evans back, with Chris Godwin ramped up, and also with Jaila McMillen back. So things are starting to get messy for a Mecca Abuka, but not so much messy for Mike Evans. Despite being the aging veteran, coming off of injuries, Baker Mayfield still trust Mike Evans, maybe the most on this team and probably based on what we just saw. So it's wheels up for Mike Evans. If you have him in week 16, you got to start the guy. And even in week 17, if you get there, whether it's in your

tour of the ball or your fantasy championship, you got to start the guy. Now, another player rising up the rankings right now and he looks like he could be a league winner down the stretch for you is going to be Rico Dottle because we had some doubts about Rico Dottle. There was big question marks after what we saw in week 13 when the Carolina Panthers backfield was split.

Then they go on to their by week and there's a lot of concerns about Rico Donald.

In that week 13 when the Carolina Panthers backfield was split.

Then they go on to their by week.

And there's a lot of concerns about Rico Dottle. In that week 13 game, you saw Chuba Hubbard have 17 carries compared to 18 for Rico Dottle, a clean split. But when you factor in what Chuba Hubbard did as a receiver, Hubbard was the more productive player, putting up 120 total yards in a touchdown. Meanwhile in that game,

Rico Dottle was only averaging about three yards per carry,
