11 Fantasy Football Sleepers to Target This Year

Kamar Aiken, WR, Baltimore Ravens

By Nicholas Niel

Kamar Aiken is an absolute steal given his draft cost, which is in the early 11th round, according to FantasyFootballCalculator.com.

After Steve Smith went down with an Achilles injury last season, Aiken provided consistent high-level fantasy output.

From Week 10 through Week 16, he averaged 10 targets, 6 catches, 76 yards, 16 PPR points per game, and never scored fewer than 10 PPR points. Even more impressive is the fact that his quarterbacks during this time included Matt Schaub, Jimmy Clausen, and Ryan Mallett.

His competition for targets doesn't appear to be a threat at this time, either. While no one will argue that Steve Smith is one of the toughest receivers of all time, he's still a 37-year-old wideout coming off a torn Achilles. It's not a surprise that The Baltimore Sun has reported Smith will start training camp on the physically unable to perform list.

Once known as a top deep threat, Mike Wallace recently failed his conditioning test and is coming off a season where he was fantasy irrelevant.

A first-round pick in the 2015 NFL Draft, Breshad Perriman missed all of last season with a knee injury. His return to the football field at this point is still uncertain.

It all points to a nice year for Aiken.
