5. Marquise Brown (BAL)

Game: Dallas Cowboys at Baltimore Ravens (Tuesday, 12/8, 8:05 pm EST)

Brown has hot-and-cold syndrome. But if there is a time to be hot, it’s against the Cowboys secondary. Dallas gives up over 28 PPR points per game to wide receivers, so Brown should feast if the Ravens quarterback play is in the mood for success. Heck, Dez Bryant might orchestrate some vengeance on his old team.

Brown is a smart sleeper start in Week 13 because this game should have plenty of points. And it’s on Tuesday night — a suspenseful spot to determine your playoff future.

6. Allen Lazard (GB)

Game: Philadelphia Eagles at Green Bay Packers (Sunday, 12/6, 4:25 pm EST)

Not long ago, this matchup would seem like a fun one on paper. Now, it feels like a show-some-mercy affair as the Eagles franchise continues to plummet. The offensive display of football the Eagles put forth vs. the Seahawks in Week 12 was not easy on the eyes.

Philadelphia is mediocre in taming opposing wide receivers. We think the Packers will stretch the Eagles limitations. Lazard is due for a big “I’m back” game. Go with Lazard as a sleeper.

7. Michael Pittman (IND)

Game: Indianapolis Colts at Houston Texans (Sunday, 12/6, 1:00 pm EST)

The Texans are the ninth-worst team in the league in allowing fantasy points to wide receivers. Michael Pittman has notched 50+ receiving yards in three of the last four games. The rookie is learning some consistency. This game should be hotly contested even though the Texans are amid a down season. Fire up Pittman for 10-20 fantasy points.
