10 Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets Heading Into Week 13
Which players on your waiver wire can help on your playoff push this year?

Ryan Fitzpatrick, QB, New York Jets

ESPN Ownership: 26.3%
Yahoo! Ownership: 22%

Since taking over as the Jets starting quarterback, Ryan Fitzpatrick has been on a tear.

While Fitzpatrick's 0.07 Passing NEP per drop back ranks him in the bottom half of the league among all quarterbacks with at least 100 attempts this season, he's still managed to have quite a productive season so far. Over the Jets' first 11 games, Fitzpatrick has thrown for over 200 passing yards eight times and also has eight games with at least 2 touchdowns.

This impressive run also includes his work this past Sunday against the Dolphins' 28th-ranked passing defense, when Fitzpatrick completed 22 of 37 attempts for 277 yards, 4 touchdowns, and no interceptions.

Given Fitzpatrick's consistently high floor and with matchups against the Giants, Titans, Cowboys -- who rank 17th, 19th, and 15th against the pass according to our advanced metrics -- over the next three weeks, Fitzpatrick is an ideal add for those looking for a quarterback in the final weeks of the season.
