This week, the Saints (@ Bucs), Chiefs (@ Broncos), Lions (vs. Packers), Redskins (@ Giants), and Bills (@ Dolphins) are all solid waiver wire teams to insert into your lineup. The Panthers seem to put up fantasy numbers against any team. Although it’s a tough road game in Atlanta with the playoffs on the line for the Falcons, they can still be trusted.  Some picks to stay away from include the Broncos (vs. Chiefs), Bengals (@ Ravens) and Rams (vs. 49ers).

Just like last week, we point out the Jaguars, fantasy’s No. 1 defense, this week.  After giving up 44 points to the Jimmy Garoppolo-led 49ers last week, the Jaguars play against the Titans, who drag out games with long times of possession and limit turnovers. The Jags are one of the few playoff teams locked into their seed, and they will likely rotate or bench some defensive players this week.  They are a team to stay away from, especially with a solid amount of choices to pick from this week.
