10 WR sleepers to target for fantasy football Week 18

8. Fantasy football wide receiver sleepers for Week 18: Romeo Doubs, Green Bay Packers

Doubs has been a recurring player on this list all season. He has a clear role in Green Bay’s offense. The Packers’ wide receivers continue to be banged up, and somehow, he keeps drawing favorable fantasy matchups. However, the pieces have just not come together for a Doubs’ breakout game over the past few weeks.

On paper, Doubs is, once again, well-positioned for a breakout game. Christian Watson is listed as questionable with a hip injury, but he did play through it last week. Nevertheless, he was limited to only one reception for 11 yards. So, Doubs could be in line for a larger workload. Furthermore, he will face the Detroit Lions, who have given up the third-most fantasy points per game to opposing wide receivers this season.

Doubs carries upside but proceed with caution.

7. Fantasy football wide receiver sleepers for Week 18: Richie James, New York Giants

Rostered: 4.2%

James is enjoying a breakout run with the Giants. In Week 16, he had eight receptions for 90 yards on 11 targets. In Week 17, he hauled in all seven of his targets for 76 yards and a touchdown.

Under normal circumstances, James would be a lot higher on this list, but the Giants have nothing to gain this week by winning. They will likely rest some starters, potentially including Daniel Jones. So, James’s role is uncertain.

Given the circumstances, he is a boom-or-bust flier.
