Geno Smith (vs. LV). Geno should start to cook now that he has a full complement of healthy weapons, including rookie WR Omar Cooper, Jr. The Raiders are losers of four straight and their defense is the main culprit. They're allowing the sixth most FPPG to opposing QBs, and the 16 TD passes they've allowed is tied for second most.

Positive signalProjection

Smith is sleeper with healthy weapons vs. Raiders' weak defense; QB22 ranking too low.

Smith is the Sleeper of the Week and should start to cook now that he has a full complement of healthy weapons, including rookie WR Omar Cooper Jr. Against the Raiders—losers of four straight with a defense allowing the sixth most FPPG to opposing QBs and tied for second most TD passes allowed (16)—Smith is projected to have plenty of success. He put up 24.5 fantasy points against Miami and is a good bet to break 20 again. Ranked QB22, which the source considers too low.
