We are weeks away from the playoffs, and the Week 12 NFL IDP waiver wire is more important than ever!
With Week 12 of the NFL here, what you do on waivers will make or break your season. These IDP players should help you have the edge over your league mates and continue your success this season.
Bye Week: IDP Waiver Wire
Atlanta Falcons
Buffalo Bills
Cincinnati Bengals
Jacksonville Jaguars
New Orleans Saints
New York Jets
Defensive Tackle:
Calais Campbell – Miami Dolphins
Calais Campbell is coming off two back-to-back games with a sack and is averaging seven points per game in the last three games. Putting him as DT2 in that span. He has some great matchups coming up as well putting him in position to be a solid bye week filler or a solid defensive tackle two if your roster calls for it.
Kobie Turner – Los Angeles Rams
The Rams have really found a great replacement for Aaron Donald. Now of course Turner could never be Aaron Donald, but he has done a great job putting pressure on quarterbacks and has become a solid starter at the defensive tackle position. He is currently averaging 7.5 points per game for the season and in the last three games he is averaging eleven points per game and has had a total of nineteen tackles, two sacks, four QB hits, and a fumble recovery.
Defensive End: Waiver Wire
Calijah Kancey – Tampa Bay Buccaneers
I mentioned Kancey last week and he has to be mentioned against. Buccaneers are coming off their bye week and he is still available in a lot of leagues. He has been great since coming back from injury, averaging 8.4 points a game this season, and has had three sacks in the last two games. Now he faces the New York Giants with DeVito at quarterback instead of Daniel Jones and an offensive line that has struggled all season to protect the quarterback.
Kwity Paye – Indianapolis Colts
Kwity Paye hasn’t been the most consistent defensive end but shows flashes, making him a great selection for waivers. Paye is coming off an amazing performance where he put up seven total tackles, two sacks, two QB hits, and a fumble forced. Paye also has four sacks in the last three games but does have a tough matchup against Detroit this week.
Linebacker: Waiver Wire
Tuli Tuipulotu – Los Angeles Chargers
The second-year linebacker has been amazing the last few weeks. His snap count has slowly increased this season, and it has allowed him to be successful. In the last three games, he has a total of fourteen tackles, seven sacks, and ten QB hits. Putting his average per game in that three-game stretch to thirteen points per game. Putting him as linebacker fifth in that stretch.
Jack Campbell – Detroit Lions
Now Jack Campbell isn’t going to shine statistically compared to other linebackers, but he has been Mr. Consistent and now the Lions will be without Anzalone for a hefty length of time, allowing Campbell to have an even bigger presence on the defensive side. In the last five games, he has a total of forty-three tackles and even two sacks. He is averaging eight tackles a game and averaging eight points a game. He should be a grab this week if you’re looking for consistency.
Christian Rozeboom – Los Angeles Rams
If you’re looking for a backup linebacker or someone to fill in for bye weeks, Rozeboom is a great option. He has been very consistent with tackles and even had a great week 10 game where had three pass deflections and an interception. Look for Rozeboom to consistently get you around seven total tackles a game and with the Rams facing the Eagles in week 12, look for plenty of chances against the run for Rozeboom to have a solid tackling outing.
Defensive Back: IDP Waiver Wire
Jeremy Chinn – Washington Commanders
Now I mentioned Chinn last week and yet he didn’t move from waivers as I had expected. If you were someone who did grab him and started him, Chinn rewarded you with a twelve-tackle performance putting up over double digits in fantasy. That now puts him in the last three weeks averaging twelves tackles a game and thirteen points per game. Chinn has really started developing in the Dan Quinn defensive scheme and has some great matchups coming up.
Quentin Lake – Los Angeles Rams
My third Ram on the list, Lake is a great option to grab this week on waivers. He is coming off an eleven total tackle performance and has been averaging 7.5 points a game and already has eighty tackles so far this season. Lake has become a great piece of the Los Angeles Rams run defense and continues to be a presence.
