Brock Osweiler (QB, HOU) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 10-Team 2QB and 12-Team STD Leagues

OWNED IN: 25% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: I almost felt sick recommending Brock Osweiler as a streamer in two-quarterback leagues for Week 13, but he rewarded that recommendation handsomely with 202 yards and two touchdowns for 17.28 fantasy points in standard scoring leagues. With a road date in Indianapolis in Week 14, Osweiler is set to likely return QB2 value once again.

Scroll two paragraphs up to see all the things written about the Atlanta Falcons on my QB Pickups article. Now take that, make it only a slight bit better, and you have the Indianapolis Colts defense. Whereas the Falcons give up the most passing yards in the NFL and the most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks, with an average of 278.7 passing yards allowed per-week and 20.70 fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks each week, the Colts are right there with Atlanta in both categories. That includes a minimum of 20.84 fantasy points in each of the last three weeks. Starting Brock Osweiler is always a risk, but he’s at least been consistent in returning QB2 streamer value more often than not.
