Week 10 IDP Matchups to Exploit & Streaming Options
Life got in the way last week, fam; my apologies. I'm back and better than ever with Week 10's matchups.
In this space, the weekly targets will range from individual players and positional groups to entire defensive units. IDP leagues are like snowflakes, so if you have specific questions, jump into our subscriber Discord, find the IDP channel, and tag me with any questions you have.
Some of you play in leagues where all of these players are already owned, and some of you play in IDP leagues where only 3-4 players are rostered on each team, so the players listed below might not even be on your radar.
The goal here is to highlight the game environments and individual matchups that are worth exploring when you're making your waiver claims or start/sit decisions. All of this data feeds into the projections and rankings, so always start there, but again, come find me in our subscriber Discord.

Week 10 IDP Matchups to Exploit
Chicago, Denver, Philadelphia, and Tampa Bay are on bye, so check your lineups. Baltimore gets Justin Herbert in the lowest total on the board; Houston gets a Browns quarterback (starter TBD) room that can't stay upright; Washington and the Giants give us a Thursday night game where both fronts can eat; and 49ers-Cowboys is a 55.5-point shootout that should pile up tackles.
Baltimore Gets Justin Herbert on Monday Night
I keep saying it, and I'll keep saying it until it stops working. Herbert has been sacked 31 times on 265 dropbacks (11.7%), the highest rate among quarterbacks with real volume this year. I'm not sure where the bottom is for Herbert and this Chargers team. What an unbelievable season for a team with a preseason win total of 9.5 that had legit Super Bowl aspirations. G Cole Strange remains the weak spot, with 19 pressures and a 35.1 pass-block grade, and Travis Burke has allowed 17 pressures in six games. This game has a 38.5-point total, the lowest of the week, and the Chargers are 5.5-point road underdogs. This is going to be a tough hang on Monday night (FLEX THIS ONE, NFL!), but at least we can get some valuable IDP reps from it.
Trey Hendrickson is the obvious start. He's been a massive disappointment this season, but if you were drafting off of my preseason rankings, you likely don't have much of him at all in redraft leagues. Nnamdi Madubuike is the interior play in DT-required leagues. He's rushing the passer on 60% of his snaps with eight pressures and one sack, so he's due. Mike Green is the streaming edge name if byes are hurting you, with about half the snaps, 10 pressures, and 3.5 sacks on the year.
Malaki Starks is worth a note, too. He's moved from a deep safety role into the box on 36% of his snaps over the last two weeks, up from 15% before that. Watch Kyle Hamilton's injury status, because that'll impact Starks here.
