Sep 11, 2024

After months of anticipation and speculation, we've finally witnessed at least 60 minutes of football from each team. Some things that we believed coming into the season were proven to be true, while others likely left you scratching your head.

What's signal and what's noise?

I always advise being aggressive on the waiver wire early in the year. Week 1 brought us a few impactful injuries to universally owned players like Antoine Winfield Jr., Derrick Brown, and whatever is happening with Devin White.

Don't overreact to a slow performance from what of your team's anchor IDP'ers, but don't be afraid to turn over some of the players at the bottom of your roster if someone with more appealing usage or alignment is available to scoop up.

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.

Week 2 IDP Waiver Wire

Defensive Line

Keion White

I wrote about Keion White multiple times over the past month, and he led off this column last week. I'm willing to do it again next week if you let him hang on your waiver wire again, but please go get him.

White played 80.4% of the Week 1 snaps against the Bengals, totaling 2.5 sacks, a forced fumble, and four combined tackles on his way to a top-ten fantasy performance in Week 1. He's an EDGE rusher with defensive tackle eligibility in most leagues, making him an even more valuable asset if your league mandates a DT starter. Go get him.
