**UPDATED: FRIDAY, DECEMBER 22 @ 10:00 PM ET**

Welcome to the NFL DFS Playbook Watch List for Week 16!

While the seasonal fantasy football community heads into championship week, it's business as usual for us over here in the DFS world. We'll be studying the match-ups in just as much detail as always, but one thing we do need to watch out for are the scoreboard-watchers. By that, I mean the teams, coaches and players who are all looking towards the NFL playoffs. As teams clinch their playoff berths we have to be careful we're not investing too heavily, especially if their coaches are protective and looking to pull their starters once they've locked down a ticket to the big dance. We've already seen a few teams clinch playoff berths, but we can certainly be thankful that home field advantage is still wide open and those top teams will be playing to win this week. As for the bottom-feeders, we'll track the news to find out who's doing what. We already know there's a strong chance Aaron Rodgers will sit as the Packers were officially eliminated from the playoffs after the Falcons' Monday night win, so there may be a few other scenarios to track. In the meantime, let's start our list for the week and see if we can repeat the DFS deliciousness we had in Week 15.

If you are new to the Watch List, you can check out the previous 15 weeks to see how we do things here.

PLAYERS ADDED -- see below for analysis (12/22)

Jared Goff, QB LAR

Dak Prescott, QB DAL

Kareem Hunt, RB KC

Jerick McKinnon, RB MIN

Keenan Allen, WR LAC

Jarvis Landry, WR MIA

Mike Wallace, WR BAL

DeAndre Hopkins, WR HOU

Mohamed Sanu, WR ATL

Rob Gronkowski, TE NE 

PLAYERS REMOVED (12/22)

Dion Lewis, RB NE -- Such a great match-up for him but with the potential of Mike Gillislee now poaching goal-line work, his TD upside goes poof!

Vernon Davis, TE WAS -- Total waste of an awesome match-up, as Davis is expected to do a lot more blocking with OL Trent Williams landing on IR.
