In any given week of daily fantasy, there is a big element of crapshoot. Even the perfect pick in the perfect matchup isn’t immune to a slip on his first touch and a down game. It’s why the game is frustrating, but it’s also why it’s so captivating.

Now, we’re in Week 17, and we’re turning all that up to 11.

Take every last quandary we face in a regular week of the season and add in all the mystery of who might play, who might not and (most complicatedly) who might start the game but leave early, and Week 17 in DFS is the one week of the year you definitely don’t want to be trying to answer all these questions on your own.

That’s why we’re here with our weekly DFS guide. Our experts have pored through all of the data, all of the news, all of the playoff situations to identify some of the top (and not-so-top) DFS plays of the week. Below, you’ll find quick-hit summaries of some of our top DFS advice of the week. Click through to find our writers’ full arguments. Watch our weekly DFS Anchor Plays video. And at the bottom, check out the rest of our Week 17 DFS advice.

This is it. Last week of the regular season. Get out there and make the money.
