7. Tyrell Williams vs. Buffalo

Phillip Rivers loves receiver performances. Keenan Allen started strong again this season and this gives to the idea of spreading the love. Allen gets his touches. Tyrell Williams should be on your radar though.

The Bills gave up clinical passes to Flacco and his receivers last week and Rivers and his guys should be no different. In the loss last week Williams snagged just two passes but scored a touchdown and is efficient in the red zone.

Expect Williams to be a big target and a sneaky deep pass catcher against Buffalo.

6. Rashard Higgins vs. New Orleans

Two Browns in one piece? The answer is yes. Higgins is one of my favorite sleepers this week. Hard Knocks gave a good light into what his potential is in this Browns offense. He’s got great deep threat potential and has the hands to make catches in traffic at the drop of a dime.

If Josh Gordon and Jarvis Landry become the duo Cleveland wants them to be then Higgins, who seems to be the clear three, could become a key target for Tyrod Taylor.

One catch for 38 yards against the Steelers. Deep threat! This is the ultimate boom or bust but in a matchup that’s going to require Tyrod to throw the ball, Higgins could sneak into the best of the Flex this week.
