We are back with my Week 17, championship week, rankings. This is what it is all about. Just one more game to go, and you could be holding up the trophy. It is always hard to finalize your final lineup. Do you go with Omarion Hampton or Bucky Irving? Or do you go with RJ Harvey or Javonte Williams? These questions will be answered below.

Running Back Notes
- Let’s start with Ashton Jeanty as my RB10. Jeanty had a monster game last week. It will be challenging to replicate that, but he is facing the Giants this week. The Giants are the third-worst team against defending the run game and are giving up 24.5 fantasy points per game to RBs. Jeanty is still a risk, as his three games before he only scored a high of 9.1 fantasy points.
- Next, I have Kenneth Gainwell as my RB22 going against the Browns. This is a tough matchup for Gainwell, but he has been on a tear the last three weeks. Gainwell is elite in the passing game and is averaging 16.8 fantasy points in his last three games. The run game will be tough, but just last week, James Cook went for 117 rushing yards and two touchdowns. I would have Gainwell as a flex start this week and expect him to continue to dominate in the passing game.
- Lastly, I have RJ Harvey as my WR12 going against the Chiefs. The Chiefs are so banged up, and now that they are eliminated from the playoffs, it looks like they will blow this game against the Broncos. The Broncos are still playing to keep the number one seed. Since Week 13, Harvey has scored a touchdown in every game and has a total of five. I expect Harvey to keep this product up this week against a weak Chiefs defense. Start Harvey with confidence.
