8 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 3
Geronimo Allison, WR, Green Bay Packers
We're not going to see Geronimo Allison overtake Davante Adams or Randall Cobb in the receiving pecking order in Green Bay, but he does have two more targets than Jimmy Graham through the first two weeks of the season, leaving him fighting for a spot as the number-three weapon.
It hasn't just been one blow-up game lifting Allison's numbers either, as he has notched games of eight and six targets so far, with fantasy scores north of 12 in each game. He has also been on the field for over 75% of the Packers' offensive snaps.
He's not in a great matchup this week against Washington, but an Aaron Rodgers-led offense is always going to boast some big upside. The Pack dropped 29 against a stout Minnesota defense in Week 2, and their 24.25-point implied total in Week 3 is not low enough to be concerning.
Allison could prove to be a boom-or-bust play in this offense, but the volume he's seen so far leaves him offering plenty of upside.
