8 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 6

Antonio Callaway, WR, Cleveland Browns

Antonio Callaway doesn't immediately fit the bill of what we think of as high volume, accounting for only 14.4% of the Browns' targets this season, but the kind of volume he sees is incredibly valuable in fantasy football.

Despite that modest target share, he has accounted for almost 25% of the air yards in Cleveland.

If we take out Week 1, when he played only 17% of the team's offensive snaps, his target market share jumps to 18.8% (second on the team) and his air yards market share balloons to 31.4%, the highest on the team by a big margin.

Callaway is averaging a very solid 7.0 targets per game in that stretch, and with his 15.9-yard average depth of target (aDOT), those targets are full of fantasy upside.

He has caught just below half of his targets in the last four weeks (13 receptions), but those high-variance results come with the territory when your looks are mostly deep balls. You have to be willing to take an occasional quiet week from Callaway, but he also offers massive upside on a weekly basis.

As we touched on for Mayfield, this is a plus spot for the Cleveland passing attack, so we could very well be in for a ceiling game from Callaway.
