3 Fantasy Football Defensive Streaming Options for Week 10

Hey, it's your friendly neighborhood D/ST streaming specialist, here again, giving you weekly streaming recommendations. A reminder that lines are courtesy of NFL odds, and roster percentages and scores are according to ESPN's fantasy platform. Assume that the listed order is the preferred order.

Green Bay Packers

vs Jacksonville Jaguars
Spread: Packers -14
Roster Percentage: 18%

Any defense favored by two touchdowns, as the Green Bay Packers are this week, is a good bet. While Jake Luton was impressive for a sixth-round rookie in his first start, let's hold off on crowning him just yet. Luton should see a negative game script, giving the Pack chances for picks and turnovers. This is everything you could possibly hope for in a defensive streamer.

New Orleans Saints

vs San Francisco 49ers
Spread: Saints -10
Roster Percentage: 39%

Mere double-digit favorites, the New Orleans Saints are a quality consolation prize. The same defense that held Tom Brady to three points now gets Nick Mullens at home.

Green Bay and New Orleans are better than just about all the streaming options that have popped up in recent weeks, and both are readily available on the waiver wire.

Detroit Lions

vs Washington Football Team
Spread: Lions -4
Roster Percentage: 4%

If you miss out on Green Bay and New Orleans, it's likely the Detroit Lions are available. They are a serious downgrade from those two but are still a viable option. The Lions are 4.0-point favorites and get to face Alex Smith, who is -- A) a remarkable comeback story and B) allowing sacks and throwing interceptions. The Lions aren't good on D, but they can have a decent fantasy day in this spot.
