10 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 16
Tre Mason has been mediocre lately, but you can count on him in championship week.

Dwayne Allen, TE, Indianpolis Colts

Based on ownership levels, people were willing to abandon ship on Dwayne Allen once he got injured, placing him back into the ambiguity that is "sleeper status."

Well, when he's played, Allen has averaged 10.3 fantasy points per game in half-PPR formats. Sure, it's because he's averaging 0.8 touchdowns per game, but it's not like it's a fluke at this point. Allen has 10 games with at least 1 reception, and in those 10, he has a touchdown in eight.

Overall, 27.6% of his receptions have been touchdown grabs. At this point, you can't ask for much more than a touchdown from your tight end -- unless you have Rob Gronkowski -- and Allen has been one of the best at doing just that all year.

Oh, and the Cowboys are the worst team in the league against tight ends, too.
