With five weeks’ worth of information at our disposal, the true crux of the streaming method can begin to mold into shape. Now with a slightly better understanding of how teams will look to employ the tight ends in the receiving game, we can avert our eyes to the waiver wire to find some looked-over players who could benefit our fantasy teams in the short term and, possibly, the long term.

For streaming purposes, 4for4’s Schedule-Adjusted Fantasy Points Allowed (aFPA) is a metric we rely heavily on to determine weekly matchup strength. As the season progresses and more data is available, aFPA becomes more and more reliable, using rolling 10-week data. Targets and efficiency metrics are also considered when choosing weekly streamers.

To provide the advice you can implement, candidates for streaming must be rostered in no more than 40% of Yahoo! fantasy leagues.

Week 5 Review

The injury bug didn’t stay away from Logan Thomas for very long, as he sustained a calf injury late in the week and was ruled out during pregame warmups. That left John Bates as the starter for the Commanders, and he turned a modest 5.4 half-PPR fantasy points into the TE21 finish on the week. Our biggest miss on the week was Taysom Hill, who exploded for four touchdowns after contributing 9.5 fantasy points over the previous three weeks combined.
