Steer Clear Of New Orleans DST Against Packers
2 hours agoFantasy managers who rolled with the New Orleans Saints D/ST in the last two weeks were pleasantly surprised by their sudden uptick in production. Holding an anemic New York Giants offense to 11 points in Week 14 and registering eight sacks in Week 15 provided solid fantasy returns. Those remaining in contention for a fantasy title belt should look elsewhere for a D/ST unit in Week 16, though, as New Orleans will face a potent Packers offense on Monday night. Green Bay has racked up the fourth-most offensive yards and the seventh-most touchdowns this season, and they have scored at least 30 points in each of their last four games. The Packers have also given up the second-fewest sacks (16) this season, limiting the potential for the Saints to gain much ground in that regard. Stashing the Saints D/ST for their Week 17 matchup against the Raiders is in play where the wire is thin but they should be kept out of starting rosters in Week 16.
