NFL Week 5 teasers: Proven NFL expert ranks top teaser options, taps one underdog as worth consideration

If you watch the Early Edge, you know we can have a bit of a professional wrestling flair to the show. That makes sense when former WWE star Jonathan Coachman is the man in the host chair. And much like a wrestling match, our battered and bruised protagonist for this teaser column has made it to the corner to tag in his tag-team partner. Now I'm entering the ring ready to lay waste to the competition.

I bring into the fray a 27-15-2 record on all NFL picks on SportsLine over the first four weeks, returning $1,040 in profit to $100 bettors. I'm also on the Early Edge and Pick Six Podcast every week, where I give out some ATS and total picks but also other plays like props, derivatives and teasers.

This week, there are three clear teaser legs worth considering, which I'll rank below. One option in the mix is the Buccaneers, but I don't have them atop my teaser rankings. I'll also throw in a few alternative teaser legs I think you can consider using if you're not comfortable with one of the three standard plays.

Are we bringing the Bills down from double-digit favorites in Kenny Pickett's first NFL start? Are we comfortable rolling with a road underdog keeping the game close? Let's find out now.
