Saints' Michael Thomas ranked as Week 5's WR8
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas is projected by our models for 14.6 FanDuel points against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 5.
What It Means:
In two full games with Teddy Bridgewater under center this season, Thomas is averaging 8 targets per game. Thomas' volume is down relative to the 9.2 targets he saw per game last season, but he is still the focal point of the Saints' passing attack. In Week 5 he will face a Tampa Bay defense that is rated 1st overall against the run and 13th overall against the pass by our power rankings.
Thomas' Week 5 projection includes 7.4 receptions for 87.4 yards and .37 touchdowns on 10.1 targets. He's priced at $7,700.
