NFL Fantasy Football Week 13: Under the Radar with Consistency!
Welcome Back! Big Guy Fantasy Sports is thrilled to bring you another year of the best in NFL consistency rankings and championship fantasy football strategy.
NFL Fantasy Football Week 13 is here, and in the “Under the Radar with Consistency” series, we’ve got some Clutch players for your fantasy playoff drive.
Week 13 is here! For NFL Fantasy Football Week 13, the “Under the Radar” series features the players with the highest Clutch Ratios despite their rostered percentages. Unlike other weeks, this week focuses on the full year, not just hot streaks, and uses the current rostered percentages to highlight who’s been Consistency M.V.P.’s this season.
For those who are new or need a refresher, here are a few key terms and definitions to help you during the season when reading.
- Clutch Factor (CF) – the average points a player needs to meet or exceed a Clutch Game based on scoring settings and league size. Think QB1, RB2, WR2, and TE1 thresholds.
- Clutch Games (CG) – weekly per-game award for a player who hits the CF factor. The more of these, the more consistent the player is.
- Clutch Rate (CR) – total of CG earned divided by total games; top fantasy players are usually > 70%.
- Football Consistency Report Tool (Scoring can be edited/Standard listed below)
- Based on 12-team leagues
- 4 points per passing touchdown
- 6 points for all other touchdowns
- 1 point per reception (PPR)
- 1 point per 20 passing yards
- 1 point per 10 rushing yards or 10 receiving yards

Fantasy Football Under the Radar (with consistency) – 11/26/2025
QB Drake Maye, NE, NFL Fantasy Football Week 13.
It’s been a truly amazing season for Drake Maye. The New England Patriots are first in the AFC and have the best record in the NFL at 10-2. Maye has been amazing, averaging 20.3 points per game and only has two non-clutch games through 12 weeks.
Maye is QB6 in points per game and QB2 in total points for the year. Additionally, he’s scored 20+ points in six games and has only one game under 15 points. Usually, I wouldn’t highlight a player who’s 98% rostered, but Maye has been too good not to mention, as he’s having an MVP-type season.

Currently, Maye is the only QB with a Clutch Rate above 80%, at 83%. He’s registered a Clutch Game in ten of his twelve played games. The craziest part is that Maye was QB16 in average draft position (ADP) coming into the season. For any fantasy gamers who waited on QB and picked Maye, they’re reaping the benefits right now.
It’s probably too late to get on board, but having Maye on your roster has given fantasy teams a huge advantage this season. In the offseason, I touted Maye, Bo Nix, and Caleb Williams as my favorite sleeper QBs, so far, all three look like great calls.
RB De’Von Achane, MIA,
The Miami Dolphins have had an up-and-down season so far. They’re currently 4-7 but are riding a two-game winning streak. De’Von Achane has been the one consistent piece for them. He’s got a 100% CR for the season, has scored 16+ points in every game but one (12.8 in Week 7).
Achane has even had five weeks where he’s scored 20+, including a 40.5 in Week 10. Coming into the season, Achane had an ADP of RB7 for PPR leagues, but he’s currently sitting at RB4 in scoring, at 21.4 points per game. His price point has definitely been worth it as he’s been one of the best late 1st/early 2nd-round picks.
(2025 Statistics: 100% CR, RB4: 21.4 PPG, 100% Rostered on Yahoo!)
Achane’s career high is 907 rushing yards; this season, he’s already got 900 in just 11 games. Not only has he been doing it on the ground, but he’s also got 57 receptions for an additional 370 receiving yards. He’s clearly the focal point for the Dolphins’ offense, and he’s shown to be one of the few true workhorses in the league.
If you drafted Achane or were fortunate enough to trade for him, then you’ve been very pleased this season. He’s clearly outperformed the majority of RBs drafted ahead of him, and if he continues, he could be in line to be a fantasy MVP.
WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba, SEA,
Without Jaxon Smith-Njigba, it’s impossible to write an article about potential fantasy MVPs. He’s been easily one of the best draft values, and he’s pacing all WRs with 23.2 points per game this season. That’s more than two points ahead of the WR2, Puka Nacua, at 21 points per game.
Again, I know that he’s 100% rostered and not “Under the Radar” necessarily, but he was drafted as WR14 coming into the season. WR14!!! That’s crazy to think about now, as he’s clearly ascended to the elite tier. It seems logical when thinking about it; he shared a WR room at The Ohio State University with Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson. Those two guys are great WRs; they both told everyone who would listen that Smith-Njigba was the best of the group.

(2025 Statistics: 100% CR, WR1: 23.2 PPG, 100% Rostered on Yahoo!)
Smith-Njigba has a perfect 100% CR. Not only has he been Clutch in every game, but he’s scored at least 13 points in every game. Additionally, he’s scored 20+ in 8 games, with a season high of 37.1 this past week.
This past week, Smith-Njigba set the Seattle Seahawks franchise record for receiving yards in a season, 1,313. There are still six more weeks left in the season, and he has a very good chance to have the best receiving season in NFL history. Right now, he’s pacing for 2,029 receiving yards, which would make him the first receiver ever to have over 2,000 yards receiving.
WR George Pickens, DAL, NFL Fantasy Football Week 13.
The Dallas Cowboys made a splash this offseason by trading for George Pickens to beef up their offense. Although he’s not quite having a Smith-Njigba-type season, Pickens is flourishing in Dallas. He’s currently WR4 in points per game at 20.
Pickens’ 91% CR has him tied with Chris Olave for WR2. He’s overtaken CeeDee Lamb as the de facto alpha WR for the Cowboys. Since Week 1, he’s scored 12+ points in every game, and he’s even had 29+ in four games. As a matter of fact, he’s scored 29+ in back-to-back weeks.
(2025 Statistics: 91% CR, WR4: 20 PPG, 99% Rostered on Yahoo!)
Pickens’ ADP was WR29 coming into the season, and it’s safe to say that was a complete steal. He was very polarizing in the offseason, as some weren’t sure what to expect. For those fantasy managers who bought in, he’s been an elite asset and continues to produce.
I expect Pickens to continue racking up points in a very productive Dallas offense. With Dak Prescott playing at a high level and CeeDee Lamb taking away a ton of coverage, Pickens is going to continue building on an already career year (over 1,000 yards receiving already).
TE Trey McBride, ARI,
When looking at the Tight End position this season, there’s only one guy who’s been dominating. That guy is Trey McBride, who’s starting to run away with the highest scoring at the position. He’s currently TE1 for the season, averaging 18.3 points per game. That average is almost 4 points higher than TE2, Tucker Kraft, at 14.7.
The Cardinals lost starting QB Kyler Murray for the season and have turned to Jacoby Brissett. Brissett has been a huge part of the breakout for McBride, who was already priced high as the TE2 in ADP coming into the season.
(2025 Statistics: 91% CR, TE1: 18.3 PPG, 100% Rostered on Yahoo!)
McBride had six touchdowns in his first three seasons; he has seven this year in only 11 games. Furthermore, he’s on pace for 123 receptions, which would put him in contention for the league lead. He’s the best weapon for the Cardinals, and for those fantasy managers who drafted him over Brock Bowers and George Kittle, it’s been a huge advantage.
We always talk about the dumpster fire that is the TE position, but McBride has been a game-changer. It’s been several years since we saw Travis Kelce pace the position and put up WR-type numbers, but McBride is poised to join Kelce as that type of TE moving forward.
