The League Winners

If you won your fantasy football championship this week, there is a very high probability you had Bijan Robinson or Derrick Henry on your roster. Week 17, the traditional fantasy finale, delivered legendary performances from its superstars.

Bijan Robinson (RB, Atlanta Falcons) Robinson capped off an MVP-caliber fantasy season with a monster performance in the Falcons' upset win over the Rams. Rushing for 145 yards and 2 touchdowns, plus adding 6 catches for 50 yards, Robinson finished as the RB1 overall for the third consecutive week. His consistency down the stretch (averaging 28+ PPR points in the fantasy playoffs) cemented him as the undisputed 1.01 pick for 2026 drafts.

Derrick Henry (RB, Baltimore Ravens) As detailed in our game recap, Henry's 4-touchdown, 200-yard explosion was a fantasy nuclear bomb. In standard leagues, he posted over 45 points. In many matchups, Henry alone outscored entire opposing RB corps.

Championship MVPs: Quarterback Edition

Trevor Lawrence (QB, Jacksonville Jaguars) Lawrence saved his best for last. In a crucial divisional games, he threw for 350 yards and 4 touchdowns, adding 30 rushing yards. He finished as the QB1 for Week 17, rewarding managers who trusted him despite his mid-season volatility.

Brock Purdy (QB, San Francisco 49ers) In a 42-38 shootout against the Bears, Purdy was prolific, tossing 4 touchdowns and scrambling for another. He proved once again that he is an elite fantasy asset in big games.

The "Dud" of the Week

Puka Nacua (WR, Los Angeles Rams) While he had a spectacular season, Nacua picked the worst time to have a quiet game. Shadowed by A.J. Terrell, Nacua was held to just 3 catches for 28 yards. Many managers relying on his consistent floor found themselves in a hole they couldn't dig out of.

Dynasty Implications

With the redraft season over, eyes turn to Dynasty.

  • Sell High: Derrick Henry. This was a magical run, but at his age, this value will never be higher.
  • Buy Low: Marvin Harrison Jr. A quiet finish to his rookie year (due to Murray's struggles) creates a buying window for a generational talent.
  • Hold: Drake Maye. His Week 17 performance proved he is the real deal. He enters 2026 as a solid top-12 dynasty QB asset.
