| 0:33.7 | Can you trust Cole Beasley or Deontay Foreman |
| 0:36.4 | with perhaps a fantasy playoff spot on the line? We'll tell you right now on fantasy football today in five. What is up? I'm Adam Azer with Jacob Gibbs. Jacob has the advanced stats that are going to help you make some lineup decisions here. And you can follow all of his work on Sportsline.com and follow him on Twitter at J.A. Gibbs underscore 23. All right, Jacob, let's talk about |
| 0:57.0 | Cole Beasley. I made the sleeper case for him. I just think you're going to get a lot of |

And then another aspect of this matchup that I really like for Beasley is that the Bucs blitz at the highest rate in the NFL. |
| 1:50.0 | And so typically Stefan Diggs is the guy who's really benefited from blitz heavy |
| 1:53.9 | matchups. |
| 1:54.6 | He has NFL's fourth highest target per route run rate when blitz. |
| 1:58.5 | And he's been more efficient when blitz. |
