Raiding the IDP Waiver Wire: Week 6

All Access / By /

“Raiding the IDP Waiver Wire” is written for fantasy football gamers in leagues that require a full complement of 11 defensive starters in leagues of 12 to 16 teams. Recommendations rely on scoring settings from FantasyPros.com, even though their value for passes defensed is a bit low. We’ll look for options at both conventional and true defensive positions as they arise. Players qualifying for this column are those rostered in no more than a third of IDP leagues on MyFantasyLeague.com (MFL). These recommendations further assume you, the manager, have finite roster space with challenging cut decisions to add new names.

These two superstars combined for 280 total tackles (140 each), 32 tackles for loss, and 13 sacks on the season.

Barring any major unforeseen changes, the 2020 top five should produce well again in 2021.

In December, former MVP Russell Westbrook was jettisoned to Washington. Just a month later, Houston lost another former MVP in James Harden to Brooklyn. Yesterday, Houston “mutually agreed” to part with the face of their football franchise J.J. Watt. Lurking around the corner for Houston is a parting with star quarterback Deshaun Watson.

All Access / By /

NFL box scores from Week 7 provide fantasy gamers plenty of points to chase on the waiver wire. Several established veterans repeated their Week 6 heroics and remain available in many leagues. Your writer might have some small part in the small ownership numbers. Week 7 provided clarity for several of these players’ situations that should significantly boost fantasy gamers’ interest in them. Weeks like this require careful management of limited FAAB dollars. Those leaving the field with injuries sustained in Week 7 include Cardinals’ LB Jordan Hicks, Steelers’ LB Robert Spillane, Seahawks’ CB Shaquill Griffin, and two members of The Washington Football Team, DE Montez Sweat and S Landon Collins.
