Mohamed Sanu caught four passes for 75 yards in Saturday’s playoff win over the Rams.

The highlight for Sanu was a 52-yard catch-and-run in the second half that he nearly housed. He could have a big role to play next week against the top-seeded Eagles if they make it a point to not let Julio Jones beat them. If that’s the case, Sanu has the talent to make them pay.

A.J. Green gets ten targets in Week 17.

The Ravens did a very good job on Green in the game, limiting him to two receptions for 17 yards. On the year, Green had 75 receptions for 1,078 yards and eight touchdowns, making it six out of seven years in his career with over 1,000 yards receiving. For 2018, Green will be among the safest bets to hit the mark again, and he’ll have some very good upside to go along with his great floor.

Brandon Lafell catches two passes against Baltimore.

Lafell gained 35 yards on his two receptions. His regular season ends with 52 receptions for 548 yards and three touchdowns. The Bengals can get out of the deal for 2018, but Lafell is a solid number two option across from A.J. Green, so we’ll see what happens.

Paxton Lynch, Broncos fall to 5-11 with Week 17 loss.

Lynch was 21/31 for 254 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions against Kansas City’s backups. He also rushed three times for 13 yards. The 2016 first-round pick finishes the regular season with just two appearances (both starts), completing 66.7% of his passes for 295 yards, two touchdowns, and three interceptions. Lynch might not make another start in Denver if they take a signal-caller early in April’s draft. Even if he opens 2018 as the starter, he wouldn’t be a fantasy option.

Tyler Kroft scores twice in Week 17.

Those that inserted Kroft into fantasy lineups for the final week of the season had it pay off, as he caught six passes for 53 yards and two touchdowns in Cincinnati’s win. On the season, Kroft had a 42/404/7 line, but we’ll see if Tyler Eifert is healthy enough to take over as the lead tight end next year. Kroft did step up in a big way for the Bengals in Eifert’s absence, though.

Tyler Boyd scores game-winning touchdown in Week 17.

Boyd caught a 49-yard touchdown late in the fourth quarter, basically knocking the Ravens out of the playoffs. Overall, Boyd ended up with five receptions for 91 yards and a touchdown in the win. Remember, he was a second-round selection last season, so the Bengals probably still have high hopes for him. He ended up with a 22/225/2 line this season, but he’ll look to carry some momentum into the offseason.

Jehu Chesson catches eight-yard pass in Week 17 win.

It was his only reception of the game. Chesson finishes his rookie year with two receptions for 18 yards. He probably won’t be involved in the postseason.
