10 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 6

Willie Snead, WR, New Orleans Saints

Willie Snead has graduated from being a deep sleeper to a full on sleeper. Based on his increase in ownership, he might be off-limits for even sleeper recommendation soon.

For now, we should just embrace his consistent snap count -- between 39 and 49 in each of the past 4 games -- as well as his reliable target total: 6, 7, 6, and 11 in those 4 games. Snead ranks 21st in Reception NEP among receivers with at least 15 targets this year, and in terms of Reception NEP per target, he's 13th.

New Orleans now faces the Falcons, who rank 17th in Adjusted Defensive Passing NEP per play but 8th in fantasy points allowed to receivers. Still, Snead is the go-to guy on a team with the fifth-highest implied total (24 points) on the weekend. He's our 32nd-ranked receiver.
