As with all my weekly sleeper posts, I’m not going to focus in this list on big name stars at the top of the salary structure in daily leagues and already owned in every season-long leagus. You won’t find Randall Cobb, Julio Jones or even James Jones listed here. Instead, I’ll try and select some lesser-known receivers who can be picked up on waivers or purchased at a low price who I think are in a position to produce some good fantasy numbers in week 8.

Last week, my picks had an amazingly awesome week as Stefon Diggs, Rishard Matthews, and Nate Washington all went off and Jamison Crowder and Michael Floyd had solid games as well. Hopefully, I can keep the momentum going this week and come up with five more solid picks.

Earlier this morning, I gave you my five sleeper running backs who I think can help you this week. If you’re looking for our complete fantasy football coverage, check out our fantasy football hub which is always loaded with tips, picks, and the latest injury news. You can find my full week 8 recap tomorrow morning and my waiver wire pickups for week 9 early on Tuesday. If you have lineup questions for one-week or your season-long leagues, I’ll answer as many as I can before kickoff on Twitter @FansidedFantasy.

Let’s get rolling with my wide receiver sleepers for fantasy football week 8.
