QB Sleepers

Tyrod Taylor-Buffalo Bills: Taylor and the Bills continue to impress on offense getting a big road win this week hanging 41 points on the Dolphins. Taylor threw for 277 yards on 21-of-29 passing as well as three passing touchdowns. He didn’t add much on the ground this week rushing just there times for 12 yards.

Derek Carr-Oakland Raiders: I know I’m going to regret it, but I am starting to really like the Raiders offense. Carr let the Raiders to a big road win in Cleveland throwing for 314 yards and a pair of touchdowns. When he’s been healthy, he’s put up good numbers and the Raiders have been surprisingly effective on offense.

Josh McCown-Cleveland Browns: On the other side of that same game, McCown threw for 341 yards and a pair of touchdowns, but he also threw an interception. Since the Browns were behind early, he was forced to throw the ball 49 times, and despite the turnover, his final line was pretty solid.

Marcus Mariota-Tennessee Titans: Mariota outplayed Andrew Luck, but the Titans came up a two-point conversion short of pulling the upset. Like Luck, Mariota struggled with turnovers throwing a pair of picks, but he had a solid final line with 367 yards and a pair of touchdowns.
