Fantasy Football: Week 5 QB Streamers

Whether you are fully invested in the streaming strategy or just need a bye week plug ‘n’ play guy, the Fantasy Footballers are here to help with starting options you can find on the waiver wire. In order to be eligible for this segment, a player must be available in at least 40% of leagues, with a goal of scoring at least 20 fantasy points, which works out to be 200-250 passing yards and 2 TDs depending on the scoring system. Always remember to check your league’s waiver wire, you may have even better options available to you. Check out all of today’s podcast or jump straight to today’s QB Streaming segment on YouTube.

Deshaun Watson vs KC

Andy is staying in the flames with Deshaun Watson. He’s got a rushing floor and has potential to be more than a streamer for your roster. You may have to spend a bit more to add him than your usual streaming options, as he’s fresh off his monster Week 4 performance.

Brian Hoyer @ IND

Hoyer hasn’t had the strongest start to the season but has played tough defenses. Now he gets to take on the Indianapolis Colts which are one of the worst defenses out there. He’s shown the ability to get it done before in the right matchups.

Eli Manning vs LAC

The Chargers are traveling across the country for a morning game. We’ve seen time and time again the west coast teams struggle in that situation. Eli has great weapons and should be a great streaming option for Week 5.
