Week 5: Fantasy Football Deep Sleepers

Fantasy Football Expert Eric McClung reveals some under-the-radar players that could help you gain an edge in your Week 1 matchup.

The SCOUT Fantasy Points Allowed Tool shows that the Bucs are currently yielding the 10th-most Fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks. It's an interesting figure given that no QB has yet to throw for more than 255 yards against them. In addition to having this favorable matchup, deep passing attempts are why streamers should get on board with Bortles in select spots going forward. According to Pro Football Focus, Bortles currently leads all signal callers with 31 attempts and 11 completions of passes that traveled 20 or more yards downfield.
