10 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 5
Bye weeks got you in a rut? Why not try one of these 10 sleepers this week?

Kamar Aiken, WR, Baltimore Ravens

Kamar Aiken hasn't been especially good this year. His Reception NEP per target (0.60) ranks 51st among 78 receivers with at least 15 targets on the year (Aiken has seen 18). That target number is just 11.3% of his team's total attempts. Oof.

But Steve Smith is already ruled out for Week 5 after sustaining a back injury in Week 4, and that dude has been seeing tons of work. Smith has 47 targets on the year (fourth among receivers). Baltimore still has a respectable team total of 24.75 points as 6.5-point favorites against the Cleveland Browns.

Aiken saw 7 targets (for 5 catches and 77 yards and a touchdown) in Week 4. He's as good a bet as any to be the beneficiary of Smith's absence.
