Deshaun Watson led all fantasy football point getters with 35 in his Week 4 performance. The rookie certainly has shown why many draft experts had him as their favorite quarterback in the class, even if they didn’t always predict him to be the first picked.

Also leading their position group in Week 4’s fantasy football scoring charts were the Packers’ Jordy Nelson, the Seattle Seahawks Defense, and Pittsburgh’s Le’Veon Bell.

The last one there, conveniently waited until I sent him packing in a trade to start producing for one of my rivals.

Of course, I’m sure he didn’t know he got traded by me, but I like to think maybe he knew a little.

Leading off the schedule of NFL action in Week 5 is the New England Patriots visiting the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this Thursday Night.

There are certainly some well-known fantasy football names in that contest, including the return of running back Doug Martin.

Ren Daxt of The Pewter Plank wrote up a nice list of fantasy advice pertaining to the Buccaneers specifically, and it’s definitely a possibility one or more names from this game make it onto my list as well.

Without further delay, let’s get to the sit, start, and sleeper predictions.
