🙏🏼 Last Ditch Waiver Wire

Best Players to Grab and Stream this Week

Together with GameBlazers: The Next Generation of Fantasy Sports

Last night was a fun one with Drew Lock stepping up to take down the Eagles. Today’s newsletter covers some waiver wire adds for playoff matchups, players to consider streaming for Week 16, and of course, the happenings over at 4for4.

Injuries don’t care that it’s the fantasy postseason and we still need replacements. Here’s a look at some of the best options out there ahead of Week 16.

⚜️ Derek Carr QB, Saints (39% rostered)

The Saints QB posted a 23-218-3 line last week without his top two WRs on the field. Carr’s next two opponents are of the pass funnel variety so he’ll likely be tossing the rock plenty to end the season.

🐂 Noah Brown WR, Texans (40% rostered)

Brown’s 11 targets led the Houston offense last week by six balls which he turned into an 8-82-1 line. It’s unclear if the Texans will have C.J. Stroud and/or Nico Collins back, but Brown gets a bump in potential heading down the stretch, particularly if Stroud is under center.

🪺 Tyler Allgeier RB, Falcons (48% rostered)

Arthur Smith and the Falcons are a headache for fantasy owners, but we do know they’ll run the ball, and the next two weeks could be good ones in the RB department. Allgeier had 15 touches in a rainy game against the Panthers last week, and he has two upcoming contests that project as run-heavy. The Colts are allowing the fourth-most half-PPR points per game to enemy RBs this season (23.4) with the Bears yielding 20.1 which is the 13th most.

⚜️ Rashid Shaheed WR, Saints (47% rostered)

The Saints spread the ball around but Shaheed did lead the room in output last week with both Chris Olave and Michael Thomas sidelined. They have a short week so Shaheed could remain the team’s WR1 heading into a contest against a middling Rams unit in WR aFPA.
