Waiver wire defense you're targeting for the playoffs! (1 Viewer)

I have the Redskins and the Texans sitting in my waiver pool. Might go with Redskins week 14 (@ oakland), then the Texans for weeks 15 and 16. The right defense can be the difference in those tough playoff games....

Holla,

Little Joe

 
AZ has a nice playoff schedule, although they haven't been doing much the past couple of weeks.
I grabbed AZ for that reason, started them twice already in the last month or so for 'good' matchups, both times substandard results. Hate to be a 'hater', but might have to look elsewhere.
 
Chiefs have the Bills and Browns at home in weeks 14 and 15. I assume they are a bad D but a couple nice matchups though.

 
After IND this week, Texans go @JAC, SEA, @STL, @MIA which is not too bad.

I just picked up Carolina for the next two weeks: @NYJ, TB

 
Your thread sub-title fails. Now is not the time. :yucky:

The time to have jumped on your WW playoff defense was 2 weeks ago when Cincinnati and Arizona were both available, but if you have any sharks in your league they should be long gone by now.

 
Looking at dropping GB Def after Detroit this week since their 2 injuries. Cincy and AZ are gone so looking at Colts or Tenn wk 14. Texans wk 15. Colts wk 16.

Same boat, but grabbed Cinci last week. Can't really carry three DEF, so ARI is gone. Worried about GB this week with loss of two starters, but Dante is starting and Megatron is hurt.
 
MY Situation:

Just picked up Cowboys DST for this week (12) vs Oak

Should get week 14 bye...

Unload Cowboys DST after this week for week 15???...Seattle at home vs TB

Have Saints DST: Week 16 (Championship) at home vs TB

 
I picked up AZ long ago for the playoffs, but I also have NO DEF. I don't think I can start then over NO no matter who they are playing.

I disagree. Waiting a little later has always worked well for me. Have found that grabbing a defense that is playing great around week 11/12 with good playoff schedule and minimal injuries...usually trumps a defense picked up for the playoffs around weeks 7/8.For instance, as in my original post, I think now i would rather have a washington/texan combo...rather than the cardinals. Would not have been the case 2 or 3 weeks back....Little Joe
 
I think I'm going to grab Tennessee, but there are only about 12 teams remaining in my league...so the pickings are slim.
