A list of fantasy football players you should add, drop or ignore for Week 17. Follow @walterfootball for updates.

Jalen McMillan, WR, Buccaneers (Priority: Medium)
There’s not much this week, but Jalen McMillan is owned in just a third of ESPN leagues. He has produced well the two weeks prior to Week 16, and he was great once again this week. I don’t know if you can count on this, but McMillan is worth adding if you’re having issues at receiver.
Malik Washington, WR, Dolphins (Priority: Low)
If you’re in a very deep league, Malik Washington should be considered if Jaylen Waddle continues to miss action. Washington has taken Odell Beckham’s place in the offense, and he saw four targets last week.
Buy low will return next year
Sell high will return next week
Olamide Zaccheaus, WR, Redskins
Olamide Zaccheaus caught five passes for 70 yards and two touchdowns, but this was a game in which Jayden Daniels threw 39 times. I wouldn’t trust this, and it’s not like you’re starting Zaccheaus in the championship.
Marquez Valdes-Scantling, WR, Saints
Derek Carr fractured his hand, so Marquez Valdes-Scantling won’t be productive the rest of the way.
