It’s never too early to start looking forward to your next match and a chance to strengthen your fantasy football lineups. Here are some options to consider for Week 13, when all 32 teams are in action.
Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, WR, Tennessee Titans (12% selected)
Another week, another touchdown for Nick Westbrook-Ikhine.
I know, it’s not the sexiest call in fantasy football to suggest adding a Titans wide receiver not named Calvin Ridley (or, in the past, DeAndre Hopkins, or AJ Brown, etc.). But the numbers speak for themselves. Westbrook-Ikhine has now scored six times in seven games. He is an obvious weapon for big players and has shown that he is a threat to score when he has the ball in his hands. And hey, the Titans wideouts have a great remaining schedule. There are no byes in week 13, but there is another bye-pocalypse in week 14 – add NWI in advance now. And speaking of bye weeks…
Marquez Valdes-Scantling, WR, New Orleans Saints (24%)
This week many players were dropped to fill the gaps in the squad that were still open due to the bye weeks. One of those players is MVS, who was free in week 12.
But let’s not forget that MVS looked like a monster in a Saints uniform, scoring 40.1 fantasy points in two games with his new team. And sure, Valdes-Scantling will probably never be a big goal scorer for the Saints, but he’s already proven to be a big threat in his new offense. He returns from bye to a few plus matchups (vs. LAR, @NYG, vs. WAS), so he’s worth a flier off the waiver wire.
Keon Coleman, WR, Buffalo Bills (43%)
Another receiver who was cut from many fantasy lineups to fill roster holes was rookie Keon Coleman, whose Bills also parted ways in Week 12. Coleman looked like he was starting to get that second-half rookie boost we often seen in young wideouts before he was ruled out. of week 11 with a wrist injury, and then the subsequent bye.
That week off came at the perfect time, hopefully giving the rookie time to heal his wrist. Hopefully he returns to the field in Week 13 for a showdown against the San Francisco 49ers, followed by some plus matchups with the Rams and Lions. Add it where available.
