The Fantasy Football WK5 IDP Dime Drop Waiver Wire And Bye Week Plays are all about getting that early jump on the completion in our leagues. The players listed are either undervalued, becoming more relevant, or simply just have an upside for bye-week plays. And as we list them we’ll have a summary that will help members decide if they are worth a hold or just a one-week play.

Short and sweet about our approach to these potential players that have something to offer at this time. Now that we are in-season and have accumulated data and trends concerning the NFL teams, we can gauge ahead and get the jump on who is who. A big part of this process is based on what we know and use in our IDP Start/Sits cheat sheet chart. And a lot of it is also knowledge-based by the author as he continues to run through every defensive unit’s players every week. The one thing users need to keep in mind is that is it is up to them to follow through with the normal start/sit charts later in the week for potential changes not available at the time of this publication. And By doing so the user will confirm or even may see a better option for their particular situation. 

We are looking for those deep players that do not have a high owned percentage according to The Tipster Leagues.

Looking for the Cornerbacks? There are always three streamable players listed in the CB Oddsmakers published on either Tuesday or Wednesday.

Notice: Some players may remain here for more than one week at a time based on ownership changes and their following week’s matchup.

Deep Edge Rusher 3-4 Outside Linebackers By Unit

Warning! Only suggested for deep formats with designated Edge Rushers or in real heavy sack format for general Linebackers. The user should not reach here if unfamiliar with the designation of the position.

Ravens Matt Judon and/or Tyus Bowser, Both play major rushing rolls for the Ravens. And the Bengals offer very strong production off the edge. Judon would be option “A” on paper for the higher odds of producing based on his average snap count.

Giants Lorenzo Carter and/or Kyle Fackrell, Both play major rushing rolls for the Giants. And the Cowboys offer really solid production off the edge. Carter would be option “A” on paper for the higher odds of producing based on his average snap count.
