4. Jarvis Landry, Cleveland Browns

Jarvis Landry’s floor has steadily risen over the past couple of weeks, and he’s now at the point where he shouldn’t even be a sleeper. He’s seen ten targets in back-to-back games, and his yardage has increased as well.

Landry gets an intriguing matchup this week against Green Bay, who is a middle-of-the-road secondary when it comes to fantasy points allowed to wide receivers. Start him with confidence this week as a WR2/flex.

3. DeVante Parker, Miami Dolphins

DeVante Parker had one of the best games of his season last week, catching 4-of-8 targets for 68 yards and a touchdown. His floor appears solidified, as he’s averaged eight targets in the seven games he’s played this season.

Parker gets the Saints who allow the tenth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. In an important game for the Miami Dolphins, they’ll be throwing the ball a lot. He’s a solid WR2 this week.
