Coming off a monster Week 4, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens could be an even more active part of the Week 5 game plan, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. The offseason trade acquisition had his best game of the season last week against Green Bay, going for eight catches, 134 yards, and two touchdowns in Dallas' first full game without CeeDee Lamb (ankle). This week, with a matchup against the New York Jets and cornerback Ahmad "Sauce" Gardner looming, Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer said the club plans to move Pickens all over formations to create favorable matchups. That should sound good to managers who roster Pickens, who figures to continue as the top option in Dallas as long as Lamb is out.

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride has been the clear number one option in the passing game for Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray so far in 2025. Through four games, McBride has recorded 24 catches for 234 yards and a touchdown on 35 targets. The 25-year-old has a favorable matchup in Week 5 against the Tennessee Titans. Tennessee's defense ranks in the bottom 10 in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (7.4), and Titans opponents are averaging 30 points per game. In Week 5, McBride is a must-start fantasy tight end.
