One of the key factors influencing fantasy decisions this week is the presence of six teams on bye: the Atlanta Falcons, Cincinnati Bengals, New Orleans Saints, Buffalo Bills, Jacksonville Jaguars, and New York Jets. This means that managers will need to find alternative players to fill the gaps in their lineups[2].
### Waiver Wire Pickups
Several players have emerged as top targets on the waiver wire:
- **RB Jerome Ford, Cleveland Browns**: Although Ford's opportunities have been limited since Week 5, his recent involvement in the passing game (seven targets over the last two games) makes him a viable bench addition for teams needing running back depth[2].
- **QB Anthony Richardson, Indianapolis Colts**: After a two-game benching, Richardson returned with a strong performance, completing 20 of 30 passes for 272 yards, one touchdown, and no interceptions, along with 32 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns. Despite challenging upcoming matchups, Richardson's potential is noteworthy[2].
### Streaming Options
For managers looking to stream players for Week 12, several quarterbacks and tight ends are highlighted:
- **QB Will Levis at Houston Texans**: Levis has the potential for multiple scores, and Houston has been vulnerable to passing touchdowns in recent games[2].
- **QB Russell Wilson at Cleveland Browns**: Despite a poor performance last week, Wilson faces a Cleveland defense that has allowed at least two touchdown passes in each of their last five games[2].
- **TE Will Dissly vs. Baltimore Ravens**: Dissly has been a trusted target for Justin Herbert, with at least six targets in five of his last six games[2].
### Other Notable Developments
- **Tommy DeVito to Start for Giants**: In dynasty fantasy football news, the New York Giants are planning to bench Daniel Jones in favor of Tommy DeVito, a move that could have long-term implications for fantasy rosters[5].
As the fantasy football season enters its critical phase, making informed decisions on waiver wire pickups and streaming options will be crucial for managers aiming to secure playoff spots or play spoiler roles. Keeping an eye on player performances, team bye weeks, and emerging trends will be essential for success in the coming weeks.
