10 WR sleepers to target for fantasy football Week 8
2. Jerry Jeudy, Denver Broncos
Jerry Jeudy is finally returning to game action in Week 8, and he’s hoping to build off of his six-catch, 72-yard game in Week 1. With the Broncos struggling on all sides of the ball, Jeudy will provide a much-needed spark to this offense.
While I’m not confident in Jeudy as a WR2 just yet, I think he steps right into pretty steady volume in his first game back. Temper expectations, but also don’t be surprised by a big game.
1. Emmanuel Sanders, Buffalo Bills
Emmanuel Sanders has quietly been a fantasy contributor in 2021, as he’s the WR28 in PPR leagues so far. While that’s not WR2-level production, he’s been a steady flex play so far for fantasy managers who took a shot on him.
In this Buffalo offense that doesn’t ever slow down. Sanders will again be a solid starter and is the top fantasy wide receiver sleeper of the week.
