Who should I start for Week 13? Fantasy football outlooks for Patrick Mahomes, DeAndre Hopkins, Kareem Hunt. Our expert fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks.
On Friday, the Chiefs and Raiders are set to play in the second NFL Black Friday game. Last year, the Dolphins defeated the Jets in the first one.
Three players you might be curious about on Friday are Patrick Mahomes, DeAndre Hopkins, and Kareem Hunt
Should you start Patrick Mahomes, DeAndre Hopkins, and Kareem Hunt in fantasy leagues in Week 13?
Should I Start Patrick Mahomes for Fantasy Football?
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is one of those guys that you can't bench in fantasy, even if Mahomes isn't having one of his better seasons.
The good news is that Mahomes is on the upswing. Over the first seven games of the season, Mahomes never finished as a fantasy QB1. Over the last four games, he's done it three times, including finishing as the overall QB2 against the Panthers last week.

Mahomes was only the QB15 in the first meeting with the Raiders, but this time he's at home and he's on a roll. Consider him a strong QB1 play.
Should I Start DeAndre Hopkins for Fantasy Football?
Since joining the Chiefs, wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has had some really good games as well as some really forgettable games. He's finished WR72, WR5, WR34, WR63, and WR18 in his time with the team.

Bad news for Hopkins this week: the worst of those showings was against the Raiders, who he faces on Friday. Hopkins had two catches for 29 yards in that game, though it's worth mentioning it was also his first contest with KC.
Hopkins should be more comfortable this week, but his volatility makes him an upside WR3 option in fantasy leagues.
Should I Start Kareem Hunt for Fantasy Football?
Kareem Hunt has been a key part of this Kansas City offense since signing with the team. He has three finishes as a top-10 fantasy running back and has at least 14 carries in each game he's played.
🚨BREAKING: #Chiefs star running back Isiah Pacheco will PLAY this week, barring last-second setbacks, head coach Andy Reid says.
Kansas City gets their star RB back and only gets scarier… with their 10 & 1 record.

But Hunt's role is likely about to take a sizable dip with Isiah Pacheco healthy. Maybe that won't happen immediately, but Hunt's days as the lead back for Kansas City are over.
With Pacheco back in the fold, Hunt is a high-end RB3 play this week against Vegas.
