Here’s my Week 12 QB streamer article. If you want a recap of the idea behind QB streamers, you can check out my first article here. Last week, my Week 11 QB streamer was Cam Newton who was a top 4 QB with 26.16 fantasy points. I was hoping I could use him as a streamer again this week, but of course, his value has increased and he has surpassed the 50% threshold.
As another update, my QB streamers have put up 205.12 fantasy points so far, making them QB8 on the season. Let’s see who my QB streamer is this week.
Tyrod Taylor
There aren’t great streamer options this week. Having Cam Newton or Carson Wentz as options could have been nice, but unfortunately, they have since been added onto more fantasy teams. I was looking at some other streamers, but after looking at their matchups, I’ll go with the Texans QB. Coming off of an impressive win against Tenessee, the New York Jets shouldn’t pose too much of an issue for the veteran quarterback.
Tyrod Taylor has had some pretty good fantasy performances this season already and his rushing ability helps give him a decent floor as well. He is in a year where he needs to prove it to remain a starter so I’d expect him to be bold in his decisions to run the ball when necessary, though I hope that does not lead to another injury.
Wrap-Up
Maybe you drafted a QB later and are worried about your QB’s matchup this week. In that case, Taylor could be a player to look at for a Week 11 QB streamer option. I am really not confident in this, so if you have a better option, I’d probably go for it.
