J. Conklin - OT

CLE

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Browns RT Jack Conklin (hamstring) and TE David Njoku (hamstring) are expected to play in the Divisional Round against the Chiefs.

Conklin's positive health update is great news for the Browns as they're going to need to play another incredible game to knock off the Chiefs. Their run game has carried them for much of the year and Conklin has been a major part of why they have been able to be so successful on the ground. As long as the Browns are within a score or even two of the Chiefs, expect them to give Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt plenty of run. David Njoku doesn't figure to serve much of a role whenever Harriston Byrant and Austin Hooper are active.

C. Edwards-Helaire - RB

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Chiefs RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire (ankle, hip) "has an uphill battle" to play in the Divisional Round against the Browns.

One would assume that Le'Veon Bell would be in line to take the bulk of CEH's workload on but Week 16 muddies the waters a bit. Darrel Williams out-carried Bell 10-7 and out-targeted him 6-1 in the Chiefs' final meaningful regular season game. Whoever gets the majority of the backfield touches for an offense as potent as Kansas City's is going to be valuable. Knowing which back that will be before kickoff may be impossible.

T. Hill - QB

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Saints QB Taysom Hill (knee) is not expected to play in the Divisional Round against the Bucs.

Rapsheet also added that RB Latavius Murray (quad) is also unlikely to go. That means both of the vultures to Alvin Kamara's touchdowns are going to be out for their Divisional Round game versus Tampa Bay. Hill had eight rushing scores in the regular season while Murray was at five rushing and receiving touchdowns combined. Win or lose, expect another massive outing from Kamara this week.

L. Murray - RB

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Saints RB Latavius Murray (quad) is not expected to play in the Divisional Round against the Bucs.

Rapoport added that QB Taysom Hill (knee) is on the wrong side of questionable. That means Alvin Kamara should finally be locked in for all of the goal line work and nearly all of the running back touches this week. Murray has five scores this season despite him not starting a single game. Without the risk of losing touchdowns to Hill or Murray, Kamara is easily the safest running back for DFS purposes this week.

M. Andrews - TE

BAL

Mark Andrews caught 4-of-11 targets for 28 yards in the Ravens' Division Round loss to the Bills.

Andrews took a step back in 2020 after his 64-852-10 receiving line last season. Across 14 games, he turned 88 targets into 58 receptions for 701 yards and eight touchdowns, enough production to hang around the top-five tight end rankings for the entire campaign. Lamar Jackson's inconsistent accuracy and dominant rushing make Andrews a volatile fantasy asset on a week-to-week basis even though he is the Ravens' No. 1 or No. 2 passing-game target. Andrews, 25, belongs in the second tier of positional rankings heading into summer fantasy drafts. The 2021 season will be a contract year for Andrews.

D. Duvernay - WR

BAL

Devin Duvernay was not targeted in the Ravens' Division Round loss to the Bills.

A third-round speedster out of Texas, Duvernay occasionally flashed as a receiver and returner during his rookie campaign. He was unable to supplant slot receiver Willie Snead in the starting rotation, leaving him with just 20 catches for 201 scoreless yards on the year. Snead is a free agent this offseason, however, so Duvernay could be a starter in 2021. Even then, the Ravens' run-first offense limits Duvernay's fantasy appeal in dynasty formats. His profile screams "better real-life player than fantasy player".

G. Everett - TE

Gerald Everett didn't catch his lone target in Los Angeles' Divisional Round loss to the Packers.

Even in opening the year behind Tyler Higbee, Everett recorded career-highs in targets (62), catches (41), and receiving yards (417) in 2020, staying healthy for 636 snaps (57%) across 18 appearances, postseason included. 27 in June, Everett (6'3/239) will likely garner interest in 2021 fantasy drafts as an athletic breakout candidate on his second contract pending where he lands as an unrestricted free agent. It would certainly help if Everett walks into a starting role with negligible competition.

J. Hill - RB

BAL

Justice Hill didn't receive a carry in the Ravens' Division Round loss to the Bills.

The Ravens drafted their running back of the future in J.K. Dobbins, so Hill's primary focus has turned to special teams. He only had 12 carries in 12 games but was active over Mark Ingram because of his versatility. Hill is under contract through the 2022 season, although every signal points to him being a No. 3 or No. 4 back in the NFL. The Ravens easily could re-sign restricted free agent Gus Edwards this offseason to be Dobbins' sidekick.
