Who Should I Start? Cade Otton or Drake Maye

Friday, October 3, 5:26 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton was able to make a small impact during last week's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Otton hauled in three of his four targets for nine yards. Through four games, Otton has been held to six receptions for 34 yards and no touchdowns. He has played above 90 percent of the offensive snaps each of the last three games. Despite that, Otton doesn't appear to be a viable option in the receiving game right now. Both Emeka Egbuka and Chris Godwin figure to continue seeing a high volume of targets. Otton can continue to ride the bench until he starts making a consistent impact.

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye has been playing some of the best football of his young career and should be deployed as a mid-range QB1 in most leagues during Week 5. He takes on the Buffalo Bills this week, and while that's a tougher matchup, it should at least lead to some garbage-time opportunities, if not steady, consistent production in a potentially close game. The Bills have actually been relatively soft this year, allowing the most rushing touchdowns and 13th-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks, as well as just one interception. That bodes well for Maye, who is the overall QB4 so far while contributing 988 passing yards, 98 rushing yards, nine total touchdowns, and two interceptions. Maye should be started in most fantasy leagues this week given his extreme success and relatively favorable matchup.
