In this space, the weekly targets will range from individual players and positional groups to entire defensive units. IDP leagues are like snowflakes, so if you have specific questions, jump into our subscriber Discord, find the IDP channel, and tag me with any questions you have. Some of you play in leagues where all of these players are already owned, and some of you play in IDP leagues where only 3-4 players are rostered on each team, so the players listed below might not even be on your radar, so don't be afraid to reach out. Also, don't forget to check out the Waiver Wire column and IDP Rankings as well.

Sometimes, I'll reference a player who's nearly universally rostered across all IDP leagues, but perhaps that'll help you with a potential start/sit decision you were wrestling with. Those decisions are magnified at this point of the season, so we want to use all the information possible to get them right. This week, I'm trying to focus on players who are likely available in more leagues in case you're in need of some waiver help to finish the year on top.

The Waiver Wire column should help as well, but I want to use this space weekly to highlight some of the best matchup spots on the slate, along with any corresponding defenders who are in line to benefit.

Come bet on tackle and sack props with us for the entire season for just $10!

Week 16 IDP Matchups To Exploit

Green Bay Packers Pass Rush

This is a tough group to rely on week in and week out, but we're in the home stretch, and if you need to swing for the fences in Week 16, this is a good spot to do it. After nearly leading the Saints to a come-from-behind win against the Commanders in Week 15, Spencer Rattler will likely start at quarterback for the Saints on Monday night.

Rattler's pressure-to-sack rate was over 31% during his time as a starter, which would lead the league if he were a weekly starting quarterback. The Saints are nearly two-touchdown underdogs, so we should see plenty of dropback attempts for the fifth-round rookie, and that's what we're looking for. Rashan Gary would be the first option if he's available, followed by Kinsley Enabare, Kenny Clark, and Lukas Van Ness.
