Who were the breakout players during fantasy playoffs? (1 Viewer)

No. 16

During playoffs a lot of owners check out and stop following NFL as closely. Thought it would be helpful to make a list of the NFL players who stood out during this period.

Who are the late season/fantasy playoff breakout players that need to be kept in mind for next season?

 
C.J. Anderson is going to get drafted a round or two later than he should IMO. People giving way too much credit to Ball/Hillman.

 
I'll throw out Teddy Bridgewater.

The young QB passed for 883 yards and 5 TDs between Weeks 14-16. I'll certainly target him as a #2 FF QB next year.

 
Some of the breakout guys were contrarian players who a lot of people gave up on. Fleener, Reuben Randle, Jonathon Stewart all had big games down the stretch. Torrey Smith had a great TD streak at the end. Cam Newton was the #1 QB at the end of the year if you ignore the week he missed, thanks to Rodgers, Peyton, Luck and others having bad games.

Lamar Miller finished the year with his best 2 games, 150 total yards in each. Latavius Murray and Brandon Oliver probably earned roles next year but both might be sketchy.

Good posting here. This is definitely what the OP was looking for. Guys like CJ and OBJ broke out well before the fantasy playoffs so aren't really relevant to the discussion.

I do agree with this even though CJ doesn't fit the mold of a guy whose breakout was limited to the fantasy playoffs.

Awesome. That's pretty much what I was looking for.
