IDP Heats (Plays) of the Week: Week Five

What a crazy week of NFL football, and we saw some great defensive performances that show why you should always have a playmaker on your team. However, the right player in the right spot can perform at that same level as well. If you haven’t caught my Hard Hits and Cool Picks article yet, then you’ll want to check that out now that most waiver wires have run. I have some great players in that article that will help you, as well as the players in this article. That’s why we cover both sides of the ball at DrRoto.com so that you don’t miss a point. That means the players have great matchups this week and are ready to perform for your teams. That means every tackle and stuff will be on your side as we get ready to bring the pain to your opponents once again. Have a great day, everyone, and may the tackles be with you.
