Week 13 in the NFL is here, and some fantasy football teams have had bad luck all season. Hopefully, this is your lucky week because this is the final two weeks of the fantasy football regular season; you’ll need to go all in before the final Bye-Mageddon next week. That means the players I put in this article may not be a deep find like usual, so we can focus on getting your teams into the playoffs. Also, if you like to stream defensive players, look no further than my IDP Heats of the Week, which will be out later this week. That way, you can bring the pain to your opponents once again this week. Have a great day, everyone, and may the tackles be with you.
LB Kaden Elliss, Atlanta Falcons
Kaden Elliss has been on a tear as of late, racking up 54 total tackles and one sack in the past five games. At almost 16 percent owned in most leagues, Elliss is most likely availible in your leagues and will easily dominate the rest of the year. Pick him up now, put him in your starting lineup, and forget about him the rest of the year.
My Prediction: 8 total tackles
LB Demario Davis, New Orleans Saints
After being modest all year long, Demario Davis had turned it up the past two weeks. Recording 23 total tackles with a juicy schedule going forward, Davis has all the right skills to help your teams going forward. Right now, he’s available in over 93 percent of fantasy football leagues. Grab him now and watch your competition get waxed by this undercover painbringer.
My Prediction: 7 total tackles
LB Jamien Sherwood, New York Jets
The Jets are a train wreck but when it comes to Jamien Sherwood, it means more opportunity for tackles. He’s available in over 76 percent of fantasy football leagues right now, and for good reason. It seems like every other game, Sherwood records a double-digit tackle game, which would be due this week against the Seahawks. Add the fact that he’s fresh off of a bye, and you’ll be rostering a player who is ready to surprise the IDP world this week.
My Prediction: 7 total tackles, 1 stuff
