The Atlanta Falcons Defense is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for the DST position. Target them as a free agent add off waivers for Week 13 of the 2023 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Let's play a game called "Target the New York Jets"! Atlanta has been an up-and-down defensive unit this season, but they jump to the top of streaming consideration in Week 13 with a game against the Jets.
The Jets currently hold the position as the most favorable DST matchup. I don’t think anyone will ever be able to explain to me how Tim Boyle is even in the NFL, let alone about to start his second game of 2023.

Over the last five games since their bye, the Jets have a POA allowed of +9.1 PPG to DSTs. This implies one of the safest floors you could ask for against the Jets, as simply scoring 9.1 raw fantasy points is a solid day for a DST. But the Jets are allowing teams to score 9.1 points above their average.
There are not many DSTs we would not start against the Jets, and the Falcons being just north of mediocre sets up for a solid day for this unit. They can be confidently added and streamed in 10+ team leagues.
