Each week of the NFL campaign, Jim McCormick and Ken Daube sift through the deeper options at each position with an eye on identifying streaming fantasy commodities with valuable matchups to consider.Do you need replacement options for running back Danny Woodhead? Are you still waiting on quarterback Tom Brady to return from suspension? We have some choice names to consider for those seeking widely available options at each position.QuarterbackJoe Flacco, Baltimore RavensDespite being owned in just 26.3 percent of ESPN.com leagues, Flacco should be on your radar if you need a deep play at quarterback this week. Flacco draws the Jacksonville Jaguars, who, despite the noise made during the offseason about having an improved defense, havent jelled just yet.? Through two games, only the Atlanta Falcons and Oakland Raiders have allowed more passing touchdowns than the six scores the Jaguars have surrendered. With no real running game behind him, Flacco will throw early and often against this vulnerable defense. - K.D.Ryan Tannehill, Miami DolphinsTannehill can produce via the run and enjoyed a nice rapport with both Jarvis Landry and DeVante Parker in Week 2. The real selling point for those streaming at quarterback is the matchup, as facing the Cleveland Browns generous defense has proved beneficial for those streaming quarterbacks. Eagles rookie signal-caller Carson Wentz produced 19 fantasy points in standard leagues in Week 1, while Ravens veteran Flacco just turned in 16 fantasy points in a comeback win in Cleveland. With the Browns sending out a raw rookie behind center, favorable field position and the potential for increased possessions all drive a strong projection for Tannehill in the teams home opener on Sunday. - J.M.Running backFozzy Whittaker, Carolina PanthersWhittaker opens the week owned in less than 1 percent of ESPN.com leagues, but that is sure to change dramatically. With Jonathan Stewart dealing with a hamstring injury that will reportedly cost him at least a week, Whitaker will find himself in at least a timeshare. Dont be too intimidated by the Minnesota Vikings defense, as the Tennessee Titans demonstrated in Week 1 that the Vikings could be attacked via short passes out of the backfield. As Whittaker is the best receiver in the Panthers backfield, project him to receive at least five targets in addition to his share of the rushing totals. - K.D.James White, New England PatriotsWith rookie Jacoby Brissett likely to start for New England on a short week, we can expect a deliberately conservative passing offense from the Patriots. In replacing an injured Jimmy Garoppolo last week, Brissetts average pass traveled just 1 yard downfield, and none traveled more than 5 yards past the line of scrimmage, per ESPN Stats & Info. Such short-yardage attempts could see White serve an important role on passing downs. Its worth noting White ranked second behind only the Bucs Charles Sims -- whom we also like as a streaming option this week if Doug Martin misses time -- in fantasy points per route run with a robust .538 per route in PPR scoring in 2015. Such per-route efficiency reveals White could shine if afforded more work. - J.M.Wide receiverQuincy Enunwa, New York JetsWhile Brandon Marshall has a bet with Antonio Brown about who finishes the season with the most receiving yards, and Eric Decker continues his high frequency of catching touchdown passes, Enunwa is quietly emerging as a key cog in the? Jets passing attack. Through two games, Enunwa leads the Jets in catch rate, as he has secured 13 of his 14 targets. With a tough Kansas City Chiefs defense on the horizon, look for Ryan Fitzpatrick to continue to take advantage of the mismatch that Enunwa presents for opposing teams nickel cornerbacks. - K.D.Kenny Stills, Miami DolphinsIt will admittedly require a bold fantasy manager to deploy Stills in lineups this week, but there are some strong indicators the move could pay off. Stills average target has traveled 24.7 air yards this season, and he gets an entirely favorable matchup against a Browns secondary that proves exploitable past Joe Haden. Stills is clearly a boom-or-bust big-play threat, but hes run the most routes on the Dolphins through two weeks, and it really takes only one vertical connection with Tannehill to produce worthy WR3 numbers. - J.M.Tight endKyle Rudolph, Minnesota VikingsWith all due respect to Matt Asiata and Jerick McKinnon, the loss of Adrian Peterson will require the Vikings to rely on the right arm of Sam Bradford more than originally planned. While that certainly looks to provide a significant bump to Stefon Diggs, the way Rudolph will be used should not be ignored.? Without the power of Peterson in the red zone, Rudolphs size should become more valuable. At 6-foot-6, Rudolph is clearly the largest target for Bradford, which explains why Bradford looked Rudolphs way on the only end zone throw he attempted from the red zone against the Green Bay Packers. - K.D.Clive Walford, Oakland RaidersWith the Raiders allowing the highest passer rating at more than 400 yards per game to opposing arms, Derek Carr again could be forced to pass the team into contention for a third straight week. Widely available and an increasingly important part of the Raiders passing game, Walford was targeted on 24.1 percent of his routes in Week 2 en route to the first six-catch game of his career. The Titans have surrendered the fourth-most touchdowns to tight ends since the start of last season, evidence Walford could shine as a streaming option at this shallow position. - J.M.D/STNew York GiantsIf you are desperate for a streaming play at D/ST, try the Giants. After investing heavily in acquiring new talent for the defensive unit, the Giants stifled Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints at home in Week 2. This week, the G-Men draw the Washington Redskins, who have surrendered five sacks and three turnovers in their first two games. When you factor in that those poor offensive performances were against the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cowboys -- neither team known for being a defensive stalwart -- theres some nice upside to this streaming play. - K.D.Tampa Bay BuccaneersDespite them having a net negative fantasy point total for the season so far, Im endorsing the Bucs based almost solely on the potential of the matchup, as the Rams are traveling across the country with one of the leagues weakest offenses in tow. The Bucs have ceded the fourth-fewest yards per carry to opposing backfields since the start of last season and just fewer than 3 yards per carry to the likes of David Johnson, Devonta Freeman and Tevin Coleman -- so the talented Todd Gurley again could struggle to find efficiency against this stout front seven. Chasing D/ST groups positioned as home favorites in games with low point totals has proved to be effective over the larger sample, thus my interest in streaming this Tampa defense. - J.M.Individual defensive playersLinebackerPreston Brown, Buffalo BillsThis offseason, coach Rex Ryan chose Brown over Nigel Bradham as the interior linebacker to build his front seven around. Brown has been entrusted with a 95.3 percent snap rate through two weeks and has responded with the highest grade among inside linebackers on Pro Football Focus. Along with position peer Zach Brown on the Bills -- who is thriving with a 90 percent snap rate and ranks second in run-stop percentage (rate of defensive stops made during run plays) among inside linebackers -- the Browns on the Bills are enjoying breakout seasons and should be acquired even in shallow IDP leagues for this upcoming meeting with the Arizona Cardinals. If hes still out there in your league, the Bucs Kwon Alexander leads all interior linebackers in run-stop percentage and is tied for the league lead in tackles. With the run-heavy Rams coming to town, Alexander could notch another double-digit day in the tackle department. - J.M.Defensive backT.J. Ward, Denver BroncosOne of Denvers enforcers in the secondary, Ward leads all safeties in Pro Football Focus pass-rush productivity metric, as hes rushed the pocket on a rewarding and uniquely high 10.5 percent of passing downs already this season. In addition to upside as a pass-rusher, Ward has spent more than a quarter of his snaps within 8 yards of the line of scrimmage, so we can expect a healthy tackle rate to persist for the hard-hitting veteran. For a lesser-known name to consider, the Redskins David Bruton Jr. has been on the field for 96.4 percent of the teams defensive snaps and could be busy chasing down the Giants deep and talented crew of receivers this week. - J.M.Defensive lineLeonard Williams, New York JetsScoop up Williams if hes floating in free agency in your league, as he is tied for second in the league in pressures among defensive linemen with Miamis Mario Williams -- whom we suggest as an acquisition in deeper IDP formats -- behind only All-Pro Aaron Donald. Leonard Williams has compiled three sacks already on the season and could add to this total against a Chiefs offense that has shown to be surprisingly pass-heavy to start the season. - J.M. Nike Air Max 97 Valentines Day GS Rosa/Bianche - Donna 313054-161 . Peter Holland and Brad Staubitz were sent to Toronto on Saturday as the Maple Leafs traded defenceman Jesse Blacker and draft picks to the Anaheim Ducks. Nike Air Max 97 Valentines Day GS Varsity Rosso/Bianche - Donna 312461-661 .J. -- Seven games into a disappointing season, New York Giants defensive catalyst Jason Pierre-Paul is getting the feeling hes back. http://www.airmax270.it/nike-640744-105-air-max-98-tour-yellow-uomo-bianche-tour-gialle-marina-mezzanotte.html . -- Adam Snyder returned to the San Francisco 49ers this season because the offensive lineman thought it was his best opportunity to win a championship. Air Max 98 Gundam 2018 . Any real chance at payback wont come until the playoff. Still, Pittsburgh knows its taut 3-2 win over the Bruins on Wednesday night is a pretty good place to start laying the groundwork. "They are a very good defensive team," Penguins forward Brandon Sutter said. Air Max 270 Flyknit Scontate .C. United of Major League Soccer.
