Bye weeks Green Bay Packers , Cleveland Browns, Las Vegas Raiders, and the Seattle Seahawks.
1. Justin Herbert, QB, LAC, (44%) - Herbert has a surprisingly low own percentage despite his skill level of years past. Greg Roman is known for having great run games, but pretty bad throwing games. Herbert has a few soft matchups coming forward, and the Chargers have one of the best defenses in the NFL, they might get some extra turnovers and extra possessions for Herbert to tack on some points. This is more of a stream for a few weeks than a season winning play.
2. Hunter Henry, TE, NEP, (36%) - Hunter Henry has had a good number of weeks here in a row and seems to be getting along nicely with Drake Maye. Hunter is a great tight end stream and depending on your depth might even be a flex.
3. Ja'Tavion Sanders, TE, CAR, (1%) - We're digging deep here, and it's a hard ask to want any piece of that Carolina offense, but with Jonathan Mingo traded to the Cowboys there are a few targets left to be spread around. I liked Sanders out of college and he might be worth a stream during soft matchups in Carolina's future matchups against Tampa, or Kansas City.
4. Audric Estime, RB, DEN, (1%) - This is purely speculation, but reports out of Denver have the coach wanting to give Estime more of the offense going forward. Bo Nix and HC Sean Payton are competent enough to have a half decent offense, and Javonte Williams has been absolutely awful the past 2 years. It might be worth a stash to see how much of the workload he gets, and what he does with it. It is Estime's rookie year so he has less wear and tear as well as we get into the end of the season.
5. Detroit D/ST, (47%) - The Lions traded for Za'Darius Smith to fill the absence of pass rusher Aidan Hutchinson. Za'Darius Smith is no slouch and can really get to the QB. The Lions offense often comes out gang busters and forces teams into turnovers. There is a 4 week span in a row starting against an injured and depleted Houston squad where I think the Lions D/ST can do some damage, and get above average fantasy lines.
