Fred Warner A Middle-Tier IDP Linebacker In Week 14
San Francisco 49ers linebacker Fred Warner ranks as the No. 17 IDP linebacker in Week 14 in RotoBaller's IDP rankings as he goes up against the Seattle Seahawks. While Warner is one of the most talented linebackers in the league, his IDP production is hit or miss. He relies on tackles more than impact plays […]

Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Foyesade Oluokun has a favorable matchup against the Cleveland Browns in Week 14. Opposing IDP linebackers score more points against the Browns than against two-thirds of the other offenses, as the Browns rush the ball often. Rams linebacker Ernest Jones, who, like Oluokun, excels at stopping running plays, made 15 combined tackles […]

Week 14 began with an exciting New England Patriots victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday Night Football.

No one expected New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers would be back this season. Rodgers went down on the first drive of the Jets' Week 1 win over the Buffalo Bills.

Green Bay Packers defensive end Rashan Gary has a tough matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 13. While Gary has been booming lately, having made 4.0 sacks in the past two games, IDP managers might want to sit him in Week 13. The Chiefs are allowing just 1.3 sacks per game, which is […]

Washington Commanders cornerback Benjamin St-Juste faces the high-volume passing attack of the Miami Dolphins in Week 13 in what should be a good IDP matchup.

Mitchell Blatt 12 months agoAndrew Van Ginkel Primed For Big Game From Defensive Line
Miami Dolphins linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel is likely to see dozens of snaps lined up as defensive end against a sack-prone Washington Commanders team in Week 13. Van Ginkel has been a dynamic player who has split time between outside linebacker and inside linebacker. He made four sacks as a defensive end earlier this season […]

Los Angeles Rams linebacker Ernest Jones has a great matchup in Week 13 against the Cleveland Browns.

Week 13 is highlighted by a rematch of last season's NFC Championship game.

Houston Texans safety Jalen Pitre has had a disappointing 2023, but he could be in for a better game in Week 12 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Carolina Panthers edge rusher Brian Burns has a plus matchup against the Tennessee Titans in Week 12. Burns has made five sacks this season and just 28 tackles.
