BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-end QB1
ANALYSIS: Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins has a favorable matchup on Thursday evening facing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and should be viewed as a low-end QB1 in deeper formats.
Last week, Cousins had a modest output as he threw for 238 yards without a score. However, in Weeks 2 and 3, the 36-year-old averaged 235.5 yards each game with at least one passing score. He threw two scores in Week 2 against the Philadelphia Eagles with a season-high 241 yards.
After tallying just 155 yards in the season-opener, Cousins has eclipsed the 200-yard mark in every game since and is beginning to become accustomed to his new offense.
Kirk Cousins to Drake London for the TD and the lead vs. the Eagles. What a drive by Kirk.

Facing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who have allowed the 24th-most points to opposing QBs this season, Cousins should be viewed as a low-end QB1 on Thursday night.
