Our IDP streaming matchups did not click for Week 3 outside Solomon Thomas as a sleeper. Streaming is not easy. We saw teams show their true colors in Week 3, leaving plenty of questions in the air. Week 4 provides some fun matchups to exploit. Here are the top IDP streaming matchups for IDL and Edge positions.
IDL and Edge Streaming Options
IDP Streaming IDL Option, Jordan Davis, Philadelphia
Matchup: Tampa Bay - Ranked 23rd in Matt Bitonti's Offensive Line Rankings
Davis has started slowly in 2024. He only has six tackles and a sack after three games. If his Week 3 showing tells where he is, it is time to let him loose. Davis was the athletic behemoth we know him to be in Week 3, with four total tackles and a sack. Here is the view Derek Carr had with the massive man rumbling down on him:

Davis has been part of an interior rotation in Philadelphia, playing on 51% of the team's snaps. This may scare some away, but a man that size being fresh makes him more productive. The Eagles play the Buccaneers in Week 4 whose offensive line has been atrocious in pass defense. They allowed seven sacks in the blowout loss to the lowly Broncos in Week 3. Davis is better than any interior defender the Broncos have, which makes him a strong IDP streaming option for Week 4.
IDP Streaming IDL Option, Calais Campbell, Miami
Matchup: Tennessee - Ranked 28th in Matt Bitonti's Offensive Line Rankings
Campbell is the ageless wonder. He can produce year in and year out on any team, no matter the scheme. He is just that good. Campbell is currently in his 17th season in the NFL. My mind was blown at that number as well. The Dolphins needed interior pass-rushing help, and Campbell has two sacks in his first three games. That fits the bill. He has seen plenty of time on the field with a 54% snap share and is a staple on their interior.
A matchup with the Titans is perfect. Will Levis has been the unfortunate recipient of numerous memes and ridicule for his erratic play. The Titans have also allowed 15 sacks in three games, which is bad enough for the second-most allowed in the NFL. Campbell should be able to make some noise against this shaky offensive line, which would make him a great IDP streaming option.
