IDP streaming is essential for staying competitive in your leagues. Streaming involves analyzing weekly matchups and playing different players with the best potential outcomes each week. In this edition, we will examine the top IDP streaming IDL and Edge options.

Week 8 was tough for streaming, with George Karlaftis as our only hit. Now it is time to look forward to Week 9. We are at the season's midway point, and you must stay vigilant. Here are the top IDP streaming IDL and Edge matchups for Week 9.

IDP Streaming Option: IDL B.J. Hill, Cincinnati Bengals

Matchup: Las Vegas Raiders - Ranked 22nd in Matt Bitonti's Offensive Line Rankings

Hill is a solid defensive tackle. He provides a high tackle floor with pass-rushing upside weekly, though he does not often convert his pass-rush attempts. Hill is coming off an impressive three-game stretch in which he has racked up 14 tackles and three passes defended. He also has ten pressures in his last four games.

Hill will have a great opportunity to convert some of those pressures into points in Week 9. The Bengals play the Raiders, who have allowed the fourth-most sacks on the season with 25. Hill still plays a dominant amount of snaps as a big fella and should be a solid IDP streaming option for Week 9.

IDP Streaming Option: IDL T'Vondre Sweat, Tennessee Titans

Matchup: New England Patriots - Ranked 31st in Matt Bitonti's Offensive Line Rankings

Sweat has been clogging lanes consistently since Week 3. Between Weeks 3 and 8, Sweat has averaged just over four tackles per game. He has not added anything into the sack column yet, but he has three separate games with at least two pressures. Sweat is an IDP streaming option due to his floor.

The Patriots lost Drake Maye early last week to a concussion, and Jacoby Brissett was less than efficient through the air. As a result (and because they had a lead), the Patriots ground the clock and ran the ball 20 times with Rhamondre Stevenson. With Brissett likely making another start, the Patriots should have a similar game plan straight into the gut of Sweat. Sweat's floor makes him a solid IDP streaming option for Week 9.
