Draft note

by John Paulsen

Puka Nacua posted 105 catches for 1,486 yards and six touchdowns as a rare “league-winner” in his rookie season. His numbers did take a significant dip in the 12 games that Cooper Kupp was active. He averaged 8.6-108-0.40 on 11.6 targets per game in five games that Kupp missed. In the 12 games that Kupp played, Nacua averaged 5.2-79-0.33 on 8.4 targets per game. That’s the difference between elite, top-five type numbers and fringe WR1 production. If Kupp is healthy, Nacua’s WR7 ADP may be wishful thinking. Nacua has overall WR1 upside if Kupp were to miss any more time.

Rams WR Tutu Atwell in concussion protocol

Jourdan Rodrigue on X

Dec 11, 2023 · 9:22 AM EST

Tutu Atwell is in the concussion protocol, per Rams spokesperson.

Related players: Ben Skowronek, Demarcus Robinson, Cooper Kupp, Puka Nacua

Fantasy Impact:

Atwell left the game in the second quarter and it opened the door for Robinson to see more playing time. He finished with a 3-46-1 line on 10 targets. The trend has been for players to miss a game when placed in protocol so this could be a situation to watch heading into Week 15 for Atwell. It would be tough to trust Robinson in typical leagues, especially running behind Kupp and Nacua.

LAR WR Puka Nacua - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 at New York Giants

Puka Nacua is having one of the best fantasy performances from a rookie wide receiver in recent memory. In Week 16, he earned 11 targets, converting them into nine catches for 164 yards and one touchdown.

He's just four catches shy of a 100-catch season. It would take a couple of good games but he has the chance to be just the second rookie wide receiver to break 300 PPR Points. He's our WR11 this week and is a must-start.
