8. Fantasy football wide receiver sleepers for Week 17: Rashid Shaheed, New Orleans Saints

Rostered: 2.4%

Shaheed did not run a formal 40-yard dash, but he told Ross Jackson of Saints Wire that he believes he would be in the 4.3-second range. Right now, it is hard to disagree. The undrafted rookie is averaging a blistering 19.7 yards per reception, which leads the NFL (minimum 15 receptions).

With Michael Thomas and Jarvis Landry on the IR, Shaheed is making the most of his opportunities. He has 211 receiving yards in his last three games. He is a solid option in deeper leagues.

7. Fantasy football wide receiver sleepers for Week 17: Isaiah Hodgins, New York Giants

Rostered: 4.8%

Since Week 13, Hodgins is 12th among wide receivers in fantasy points! During that stretch, he has found the end zone in three out of his four games.

Given his recent performance, Hodgins is locked on the fantasy radar. He is a high-upside flier.
