Team Defense Week 5 sleepers

Philadelphia Eagles (FD-4,400, DK-3,000): The Eagles have actually been pretty solid on defense forcing multiple turnovers every week except for last week against Washington when they lost at the buzzer. This week, they’ll take on Drew Brees and the Saints who have been middle-of-the-pack against opposing team defenses but always seem to struggle outdoors on the road like they will be this week in Philly.

New York Giants (FD-4,300, DK-2,900): The Giants facing the most generous team to opposing D/St this week as they host the 49ers on Sunday Night Football. New York’s defense looked solid on the road last week in Buffalo posting their third double-digit points week (DraftKings scoring) in four games. The Giants are my top sleeper defense for the week, and they’ll make Sunday Night Football fun to watch for their owners.

Jacksonville Jaguars (FD-4,300, DK-2,700): If you’re out of money and just looking to play a matchup, the Jags are worth a flier as they take on the Bucs and Jameis Winston who has thrown seven picks in the first four weeks of the season including four interceptions last week against the Panthers. Jacksonville isn’t an elite squad but this definitely is an elite matchup.

Week 4 Picks: Green Bay Packers, Philadelphia Eagles, Oakland Raiders
