Week 18 QB Streamer

Here’s my Week 18 QB streamer article. If you want a recap of the idea behind QB streamers, you can check out my first article here. Most leagues are done now. But I will continue putting out these articles in case anyone needs help with finding depth at the position. In case you’re not aware, most leagues are done because the last week of the season often involves unmotivated teams, making players less predictable.

Last week, my Week 17 QB streamer was Taysom Hill who was decent for fantasy with 17.38 fantasy points. He finished the week as QB13. Let’s see who my streamer is this week.

Flow Chart Part 2

The tricky thing with this week is that we need to identify teams that are motivated to win. My streamers also don’t have guaranteed jobs so there will be a flow chart again. Here are a couple of options.

My first name is Taysom Hill again. We know he’s a good fantasy quarterback with his rushing upside. An unmotivated Falcons defence should be a great matchup.

My second option is Trey Lance. Like Taysom Hill, he has a rushing floor. However, he has a tough matchup against a Rams offence that is playing for seeding. The main issue is that his starting status largely depends on whether Jimmy Garoppolo plays or not.

I really hope one of those two starts, but otherwise, you may need to look to a rookie like Zach Wilson or Mac Jones.

Wrap-Up

Maybe you drafted a QB later and are worried about your QB’s matchup this week. In that case, these QBs could be one to look at for a Week 18 QB streamer option. I hope you get to win your fantasy championship this week!
