Last weekend was a tame one for fantasy football owners, at least in terms of big injuries. Normally, we'd celebrate that, but if you're looking for a must-have sleeper for your championship game, there isn't much out there. In fact, the most useful options among our top fantasy waiver pickups for Week 16 aren't the running backs (Dion Lewis, Justin Forsett) or wide receivers (Robby Anderson, Dontrelle Inman, Cameron Meredith), but rather the defense and tight end streamers.
Yes, even the teams in your fantasy finals could potentially use a boost at those notoriously tough positions, especially with bad matchups for D/ST staples like the Broncos (at KC), Cardinals (at SEA), Vikings (at GB), Dolphins (at Bills), and Ravens (at Steelers).
