8 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 13

Anquan Boldin, WR, Detroit Lions

After starting slow this season, by his standards, Anquan Boldin has seen 9 targets in each of his last two games, accounting for a full 25% of the Detroit Lions' passing targets in that span.

In addition to this promising uptick in volume, he has been one of the team's main red zone weapons this season, and he is tied for a team-high 26.7% of Detroit's red zone passing targets.

He draws a dream matchup, as Detroit travels to take on the New Orleans Saints in a game with a massive 53.5 over/under. As 5.5 point underdogs, the Lions will likely be forced to throw a bunch, generating plenty of volume for Boldin. He should have no trouble turning in a solid performance while going up against a Saints' defense that ranks 28th in Adjusted Defensive Passing NEP per play.
