Fantasy Football Week 12 Streamers
We’re officially through the first 11 weeks of the Fantasy Football season! Only 2 weeks left before the Fantasy Playoffs! Doesn’t it feel like only yesterday we were prepping for our drafts?! I hope everyone reading this is in a PRIME position to make the playoffs! Remember: ONE GAME A TIME! If you’re fighting for that last playoff spot, don’t just set your team now and forget it. I URGE you to look at all of the options on your bench AND on the waiver wire to START the best players with the best matchups so you can have the best chance at winning this week.
In this article, I’m going to highlight 2 top streamers per position in deep and shallow leagues along with BONUS streamers to consider if the highlighted players are already taken in your league. Let’s begin!
QB
Shallow League Streamer (Owned in less than 60% of Yahoo Leagues)
Ryan Tannehill (24% owned) vs Jaguars
Over the past 4 games, Tannehill has averaged 254 yards and 2 TDs. This week he’s at home facing a beatable Jaguars defense. With Patrick Mahomes, Kyler Murray, Kirk Cousins, and Philip Rivers all on bye weeks, Tannehill is looking like a solid streamer this week.
Other QBs to consider streaming: Jacoby Brissett (42%) at Hou, Sam Darnold (28%) vs Oak
Deep League Streamer (Owned in less than 20% of Yahoo Leagues)
Jeff Driskel (7% owned) at Redskins
Since taking over the starting duties, Driskel has averaged 239 passing yards, 44 rushing yards, 1.5 passing TDs, and has even rushed for a TD. His rushing ability ALONE makes him a solid streamer in deep leagues especially if you are facing the bye week blues.
Other QBs to consider streaming: Ryan Fitzpatrick (9%) at Cle, Dwayne Haskins Jr. (%) vs Det
RB
Shallow League Streamer (Owned in less than 60% of Yahoo Leagues)
Jonathan Williams (38% owned)/Jordan Wilkins (6% owned) at Texans
With Mack OUT with a broken hand, I am streaming whoever gets the starting nod at Running Back for the Colts. If I had to choose which one to start TODAY, I would lean towards Williams since he is healthy and NOT coming off an injury like Wilkins. Keep an eye out on who the Colts name as their starting RB because THAT’S the guy you’re going to want to stream in Thursday’s matchup in Houston.
Other RBs to consider streaming: Bo Scarbrough (22%) at Was, Derrius Guice (51%) vs Det
Deep League Streamer (Owned in less than 20% of Yahoo Leagues)
Raheem Mostert (11% owned) vs Packers
With Breida set to miss another week, Mostert is looking at another 8-12 touches this week. For those in deep leagues in need of a desperation FLEX play, you can do MUCH WORSE than the 1b in this 49ers offense.
Other RBs to consider streaming: Trey Edmunds (18%) at Cin, Rex Burkhead (6%) vs Dal
WR
Shallow League Streamer (Owned in less than 60% of Yahoo Leagues)
Robby Anderson (52% owned) vs Raiders
Yes, he’s only averaging 3 targets over the last 2 games BUT if you’re in need of a possible BOOM this week then go ahead and give Robby a shot. I KNOW, he only had 1 reception last week BUT this week he goes up against a VERY generous defense in the Oakland Raiders who give up the 8th MOST fantasy points to Wide Receivers. Darnold has been playing a lot better as of late, and if it doesn’t happen for Robby this week then you can COMPLETELY move on.
Other WRs to consider streaming: Cole Beasley (32%) vs Den, Danny Amendola (30%) at Was
Deep League Streamer (Owned in less than 20% of Yahoo Leagues)
James Washington (12% owned) at Bengals
With Juju and Johnson BOTH in concussion protocol, Washington could be looking at a bigger workload than usual this week. Rudolph hasn’t been good BUT when all of the other weapons on this team are OUT, he will have no choice but to force feed the ball to Washington, Samuels, and McDonald against a Bengals defense that ranks 31st overall in fantasy. In deep leagues, I’m taking a shot on him as a solid floor play IF both Juju and Johnson have to miss Week 12.
Other WRs to consider streaming: Russell Gage (2%) vs TB, Chris Conley (13%) at Ten
TE
Shallow League Streamer (Owned in less than 60% of Yahoo Leagues)
Dallas Goedert (24% owned) vs Seahawks
Admittedly, I had a tough time deciding between Goedert and Hollister as my top streaming option this week. I gave the slight nod to Goedert based on the matchup. Seattle is giving up the 7th most fantasy points to Tight Ends on the season versus the Eagles giving up the 7th FEWEST fantasy points to the Tight End position. Both are great options!
Other TEs to consider streaming: Jacob Hollister (53%) at Phi, Noah Fant (30%) at Buf
Deep League Streamer (Owned in less than 20% of Yahoo Leagues)
Ryan Griffin (18% owned) vs Raiders
Last week, Griffin had 5 catches for 109 yards and TD. The Raiders are giving up the 3rd MOST fantasy points to the Tight End position AND he has the trust of Darnold. He should be able to provide a solid floor this week with room for more.
Other TEs to consider streaming: Mike Gesicki (16%) at Cle, Ben Watson (2%) vs Dal

- Lions (28%) at Was
- Falcons (12%) vs TB
- Giants (6%) at Chi
