With only so many weeks left of the fantasy regular season, I have some IDP players who could help you win late in the season.
Waiver wire pickups are so crucial around this time of year, I have added a list of players that could make or break your season and worth a look. Always consider your scoring, teams bye weeks and injuries of course.
Bye Week:
Arizona Cardinals
Carolina Panthers
New York Giants
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Defensive Tackle:
Grover Stewart – Indianapolis Colts
Grover Stewart comes into week eleven as the number three fantasy defensive tackle and yet he continues to sit on waivers across IDP leagues. Stewart is coming off another double-digit fantasy performance with another sack as well as eight total tackles. He continues to add to his career best season and needs to be added in more leagues.
Cameron Heyward – Pittsburgh Steelers
Heyward has been on the waiver wire list before and after coming off the bye week he had two sacks and two QB hits. It was his best fantasy performance so far for the season and he is currently only behind Dexter Lawrence from the New York Giants in points for the season as a defensive tackle. Also looking ahead, he has some great matchups where he should take advantage and have even more sacks.
Defensive End:
Calijah Kancey – Tampa Bay Buccaneers
After missing the first five games of the season, Kancey is coming into week eleven as the third best active defensive end in average points per game with 8.4. Kancy in the last five games has had four sacks and even coming off two double-digit fantasy performances. He currently matches his rookie season in sacks and has some great matchups after the bye week against the Panthers, Raiders and Cowboys.
A’Shawn Robinson – Carolina Panthers
The 29-year-old veteran has been on a nice little fantasy streak in the last three weeks. Robinson has had two sacks in three games and has provided a nice spark for anyone that has picked him up. He is not consistent enough to put in your lineup every week but is more of a matchup-based player. Yet he is still worth stashing, especially in deeper leagues and he has a decent schedule after the bye.
Linebacker:
DeMarvion Overshown – Dallas Cowboys
What a great game against the rival Philadelphia Eagles. Overshown put plenty of pressure on Jalen Hurts and was able to put up over nineteen points in week ten. And Overshown finished that game with twelve total tackles, two sacks, and two QB hits. He also shows flashes of outstanding production and is worth grabbing. With Dallas expected to be behind plenty, this gives teams opportunities to run on them, allowing Overshown to get tackles to help stop the run.
Daiyan Henley – Los Angeles Chargers
I’m going to mention Henley every week until I see his roster percentage increase drastically. Henley is coming off an outstanding game where he finished with fourteen total tackles, a sack, and a QB hit. Henley has been on a nice streak of over double-digit tackle performances in three straight games. He is currently averaging eight points per game and is a very solid LB2 in your lineup.
Josey Jewell – Carolina Panthers
Josey Jewell is a forgotten player after leaving the Denver Broncos. He has missed some time this season so that has not helped his case. Jewell finished with thirteen points in week ten against the lowly Giants where he finished with six total tackles, a fumble recovery and an interception. He is a great grab and a reliable starter as your LB2 going forward for the rest of the season.
Tuli Tuipulotu – Los Angeles Chargers
Another Los Angeles Charger on this list but he is worth mentioning. Tuipulotu has currently supplanted Joey Bosa as the starter and getting more opportunities to line up across from Khalil Mack. In the last three games, Tuipulotu has averaged eleven points a game and has totaled six sacks in those three games. Now you can’t rely on Tuipulotu as a tackling machine and depending on your IDP league’s scoring, his value may not be as high but he is worth a stash if you can.
Defensive Back: Must-Add IDP Waiver Wire
Jeremy Chinn – Washington Commanders
Chinn is really coming into his own in the Dan Quinn scheme. He is someone many have written off after having some amazing seasons early on in Carolina. In the last two games, Chinn has averaged fourteen points in fantasy while combining for 24 total tackles in those two games. In week ten he finished with twelve total tackles, a pass deflection, and an interception. With some solid matchups coming up, Chinn could be a solid DB2 going forward.
Brandon Jones – Denver Broncos
Now I know I have mentioned Brandon Jones before, but he is worth grabbing and yet has still been available in a lot of leagues. Jones has been Mr. Consistent for the Denver Broncos defense and even had a nine-tackle game in week 10 against the Kansas City Chiefs. Jones is currently DB6 for the season and averaging just over seven points a game.
