We've hit double digits in Week 10. Four teams are on a bye - the Chicago Bears, Denver Broncos, Philadelphia Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneers - so if you see any players from those squads who shouldn't be on waivers, try to take advantage of someone else's roster crunch.

Each week, we'll highlight diamonds in the rough or some players that just need to be rostered in more leagues on the defensive side of the ball. Keep in mind your scoring system and roster restraints when heading to the waiver wire to grab these IDPs.

Defensive Linemen

DE J.T. Tuimoloau, Indianapolis Colts

The 2025 second-round pick has been causing havoc on the left end for the rebuilding Colts. He has three tackles and a sack in each of the last two weeks.

DT Quinnen Williams, Dallas Cowboys

The defense hasn't been great overall, but Williams is earning his money. He didn't record a sack in Week 9 for the first time in a month, but he still posted seven tackles. Since Week 4, he has sacks in four of six games.

Linebackers

LB Shemar James, Dallas Cowboys

Over the last four games, James has five, six, nine and five tackles. He also recovered a fumble in Week 9 and picked off a pass in Week 8. DeMarvion Overshown is hurt again, so James will remain on the field to accrue stops.

LB Quincy Williams, Cleveland Browns

Carson Schwesinger gets all the headlines, but Williams has stuffed the stat sheet in recent weeks. Over the last five games, he has 11, six, 10, five and seven tackles. He has forced four fumbles, picked up a sack and defended two passes as well. The Browns have a bye in Week 11, so Williams may just be a one-week play against the Houston Texans.

LB Jaden Dugger, San Francisco 49ers

He was silent in Week 7 before the Week 8 bye but had six tackles and a pick-six in Week 9. He has good matchups against the Cowboys and Minnesota Vikings in the next two weeks.

Defensive Backs

S Andrew Wingard, Arizona Cardinals

Wingard is a streaky player in fantasy who will give managers pockets to stream him every season, or so it seems. We're in one now. He had seven tackles in Week 8 and 12 in Week 9.

S Sydney Brown, Atlanta Falcons

The Falcons traded star safety Jessie Bates to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Monday. Brown is expected to take over as starting strong safety. He had four tackles in Week 9.

S Treydan Stukes, Las Vegas Raiders

The sixth-round rookie has stood out over the last two weeks next to Jeremy Chinn. He had eight tackles and a pass defense in Week 8 and five tackles and an INT in Week 9.
