Fantasy Football Week 15 Tight End Preview: Streaming options, DFS plays, and more

We do not know for positive that Darren Waller is coming again in Week 15. We do not know for positive that he’ll make it again in any respect this season. However he’s 54% rostered and nonetheless IR eligible, so he ought to undoubtedly be added simply in case. Waller is not one of many prime tight ends so as to add for this week, due to that uncertainty, however by Week 16 he may very well be a must-start tight finish.

Waller performed greater than 60% of the snaps in six video games this season. In half of these video games he scored 13 PPR Fantasy factors or extra. And that manufacturing largely got here in a Giants move offense that was not as efficient because the one we have now seen not too long ago. Tommy DeVito’s 6.8 yards per try and 6.3% landing charge are each considerably higher than what the Giants have been producing earlier than he took over. 

Possibly extra essential than what Waller or DeVito has achieved this season is who they will play in Week 16 and Week 17. When most leagues are enjoying their Fantasy semifinals Waller will face an Eagles protection that has been one of many worst move defenses in soccer. They’ve additionally given up the sixth-most Fantasy factors to tight ends this season. Then, in championship week, the Giants face a Rams protection that has given up the second-most Fantasy factors to tight ends this season. The Rams have given up double-digit Fantasy factors to a good finish in three straight video games and 5 of their final six. 

You probably have a bye this week, Waller needs to be one in every of your prime priorities on the waiver wire. He might end the season as a must-start choice.
