10 Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets Heading Into Week 5
Blake Bortles might be tough to rely on every week, but he's in a money spot against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 5.

Taylor Gabriel, WR, Chicago Bears

Taylor Gabriel was one of the biggest beneficiaries of the the Trubisky fantasy points bonanza, securing 7-of-7 targets for 104 yards and 2 touchdowns. Over the last three games, Gabriel has now see target totals of 7, 10 and 7, and it's beginning to look like he could be a reliable cog in this Bears offense this year.

Given Chicago's earlier struggles on offense, this is Gabriel's first notable fantasy result of the year, but if we're to believe Trubisky might have taken a step forward this weekend, perhaps there are more strong weeks on the way. Gabriel's 29 targets trail number-one wideout Allen Robinson by just 3 targets (32), and he's also second on the team in air yards (282).

After the bye week, the Bears face a Dolphins team that was putting up good defensive numbers through the first three weeks but just got manhandled by the Patriots for 38 points, including allowing 3 touchdown passes to Tom Brady.
