defenses get lots of points in my league for ints, fumbles, special teams, etc. so this can be a huge swing factor. Our playoffs are weeks 15, 16, and 17. I'm currently carrying San Diego and Saint Louis. The "best" available are Buffalo, Cleveland, Detroit, and Miami. Here's a little chart of upcoming schedules I find most appealing. (Sorry, I tried to make a nice table and failed.) I can afford the roster spot to carry at least 2, maybe 3 if you have a strong case to be made. I can't totally punt on weeks 13 and 14, but I'm not too concerned either. Recommendations on who to carry for weeks 15-17? Looks to me like I should just carry SD and BUF. If so, and I can't get BUF off waivers, who are the next best teams? Tx!

STL: wk 14 BUF wk 17 SEA
SD: wk 15 CAR wk 16 NJ wk 17 OAK
BUF: wk 13 JAC wk 14 STL wk 15 SEA wk 16 MIA wk 17 NJ
CLE: wk 13 OAK wk 14 KC
DET: wk 15 ARI wk 17 CHI
MIA: wk 15 JAC wk 16 BUF

I wouldn't want Buffalo going anywhere near my team. Not a trustworthy defense. Browns are actually decent, just their offense puts them in bad spots most weeks. Their underlying stats in sacks and interceptions are top 10 worthy. They'd be the only defense I'd want to carry outside of the Chargers out of that bunch.
