10 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 12
Which sleepers can help give you a boost in Week 12 as the fantasy playoffs inch closer?

Brandin Cooks, WR, New Orleans Saints

Update: Brandin Cooks broke his thumb and could be out for four weeks.

Brandin Cooks has been pretty hard to peg this year, but really, one thing is clear: he performs better at home than on the road. It could be a direct correlation to Drew Brees, but either way, Cooks is a better play at home than on the road.

He has five home games and five away games on the year. Away from New Orleans, Cooks averages 4.0 receptions, 37.2 yards, 0.2 touchdowns, and 7.9 fantasy points (in half-point-per-reception leagues). At home? 6.6 catches, 72.8 yards, 0.4 touchdowns, and 14.66 fantasy points.

If you ever want to roll Cooks, you do it at home, where he hasn't failed to catch 5 passes or reach 50 yards all year.
