Jamey Eisenberg's Week 6 Fantasy football sleepers and DFS picks: Kirk Cousins, Tre Tucker look to rebound

Kirk Cousins had his worst game of the season in Week 5 at New England, and Tre Tucker has only had one good game this year, which was Week 2 at the Chargers. But both Raiders have the chance to perform well in Week 6 against Buffalo. I like Cousins as a No. 1 Fantasy quarterback against the Bills, and Tucker is worth starting in all three-receiver leagues. Given Buffalo's defense this season, this should be a fun game. My only fear with Cousins is that if the Bills build a big lead early, then the Raiders could turn to Fernando Mendoza for playing time, like we saw against the Patriots. Ideally, Cousins will get off to a good start Sunday at home. The Bills rank No. 4 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks, and C.J. Stroud, Jared Goff, Drake Maye and Matthew Stafford all scored at least 20.5 Fantasy points against this defense. Cousins has scored at least 19.8 Fantasy points in four of five games this season, and I expect him to rebound after scoring just 15.7 Fantasy points in Week 5. Tucker is tougher to trust since he's scored 8.4 PPR points or less in all but one game. He had 22.9 PPR points against the Chargers in Week 2, and then Brock Bowers debuted in Week 3 after missing the first two games with a knee injury. Tucker is averaging four catches, 42.7 yards and 5.7 targets per game with Bowers, but this is a get-right spot against Buffalo. The Bills rank No. 1 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing receivers, and seven guys — Nico Collins, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Tre Harris, Romeo Doubs, Efton Chism III, Puka Nacua and Davante Adams — all scored at least 12.2 PPR points against Buffalo. With several star receivers missing in Week 6 with four teams on a bye (Cincinnati, Detroit, Miami and Minnesota) and a few injuries at the position, Tucker should be a solid replacement option. And Cousins should help Tucker thrive against the Bills.

Kirk Cousins vs. Bills (4:25 p.m. ET, CBS): Cousins has scored 20-plus fantasy points in three of his first five games with the Raiders, and a home matchup against the Bills makes him a nice sleeper. Buffalo's defense has allowed the third-most points per game to quarterbacks and the seventh-most points allowed per dropback. The Bills also have allowed three of the last four opposing quarterbacks to score 26-plus points, so Cousins clearly has a nice matchup.
