Week 6 Streaming Options

                   Week 6 Streaming Options
    Last week's QB streams were two opposite sides of the spectrum. Teddy and Minshew were great but Daniel Jones busted in a prime spot. He can't be trusted in any matchup. This week the QB streams are kinda slim. TEs have some interesting guys but is pretty much a desolate landscape outside of the top 5-6 options. 
     As usual I'll start with the QBs followed by TEs and Defense. 
(Available in 50% or more of Yahoo leagues)

Quarterbacks

Ryan Fitzpatrick v NY Jets (45% Owned) After what Fitz did to the Niners last week you can't doubt him this week against the lowly Jets. However the most Fitzpatrick thing ever would be for him to bust in this spot. 
 
Kirk Cousins v Atlanta (38% Owned) If you streamed Cousins last week you're in luck. This week he gets the best matchup a QB can see in Atlanta's secondary. Just watch the status of this game closely on Sunday. Atlanta had some Covid19 issues this week. 

Andy Dalton v Arizona (28% Owned) Dalton is probably the highest floor option here as a veteran. He's not asked to do much but with a ton of weapons at his disposal. I think you'll see this offense revolve around Zeke more now that Dak is gone but the opportunity is there for Dalton to put up a nice statline.

Tight Ends

Eric Ebron v Cleveland (49% Owned) With Dionte Johnson out and Claypool now on defenses radars there could be a ton of single coverage against linebackers for Ebron to take advantage of. He's a decent bet for a TD as well.

Trey Burton v Cincinnati (13% Owned) Normally I'd never trust a guy named Trey but with Mo Alie-Cox out I think you can trust Burton here to get targets. Only problem is in this offense and with Rivers as his QB the ceiling isn't too high. He has a decent floor if that's what you're after

Irv Smith Jr. v Atlanta (8% Owned) Available almost everywhere and the polar opposite of Burton. Irv offers a high ceiling here vs Atlanta. His pass routes shot up last week and it's a decent gamblers bet that he could break out here in a great matchup. However, the floor is as low as it gets if he goes back to his week 1-4 role.

Defenses
My top defensive stream this week would have been Miami against the Jets but managers target the Jets every week so as of right now they are actually over 50% owned. So if you missed out on Miami let's take a look at some other options that are more available. 

New York Giants v Washington (32% Owned) I know what you're thinking. The Giants aren't very good but this is more about the WFT being bad and Bradbury's ability to neutralize Mclaurin. 

Washington Football Team @ NY Giants (27% Owned) Same game but even more upside. Jones is turnover prone when pressured and the Football Team creates pressure. Only way I see this not working is if Freeman gets it going in the run game. 

Carolina v Chicago (14% Owned) This is a feast or famine option in my eyes. If Carolina can get Chicago to play from behind it should be feast time. If Chicago can take advantage of Carolina's terrible run defense you'll be starved for points. 

    That's it for this week's streams. Hope you enjoyed reading and follow me on Twitter @Chris_Cianci and feel free to asked me any questions there.

Taking advantage of your IR slot

Image
   Due to Covid-19 the league made a few changes. They changed IR designation to just 3 weeks to give teams more flexibility with thier rosters. Fantasy Football as a community properly reacted as well. Yahoo defaulted to 2 IR slots per team and fantasy commissioners might have even added more to your league.      IR slots were always common in dynasty leagues but players in dynasty formats are already savvy enough to navigate and use them properly. Now that IR spots have become the norm in redraft I've noticed a some gross misuse of them by casual managers or not using them at all. If you haven't been using your IR slots this blog will give you a marked advantage moving forward.          I've noticed casual managers with guys like Blake Jarwin and Marlon Mack in their IR slot... IN REDRAFT!!!   Honestly the competitive side of me loves to see it. That tells me that they have no idea what it's for. I mean... What are yo...

10 Moves To Make Before Your Trade Deadline

  10 Moves To Make Before Your Trade Deadline   1) Buy Miles Sanders If you can get Sanders for a combination of a WR2 + RB2/Flex I'd go for the upgrade. The Eagles offense is getting healthy all at once and the matchups for Sanders moving forward are favorable. The upgrade in total offense for the Eagles gives Miles a decent shot at a TD or 2 every week. 2) Buy Derrick Henry If you are lined up to make your playoffs do whatever you can to get Derrick Henry. He will be expensive but his playoff schedule is just fantastic. JAX, DET, GB. It doesn't get much better than that. If your trade deadline is a little later you can actually wait a week or two (he has a few rough matchups upcoming) then shoot your shot. He's a league winner for a playoff bound team. 3) Buy Kareem Hunt This is a buy low. He's not going to be valued any lower than he is now. With Chubb coming back and Hunt not exactly capitalizing on the feature back opportunity he was afforded the past f...
