Fear not Fantasy football owners there are still productive players available on the waiver wire available. These are my top sleepers who are probably still out there.
Tight End Heath Miller, Pittsburgh Steelers
Miller hit a season highs of eight catches and 86 receiving yards in Week 13 against the Ravens. He has been a major part of the Steelers’ passing offense over the last three weeks. He’s averaged seven receptions for 66.6 yards on a total of 25 targets during that span. He also has a good matchup in Week 14 against a Dolphins defense that has allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to tight ends.
Tight End Brandon Myers, New York Giants
Coming off a great performance against the Redskins (5 catches for 61 yards, 1 td), Myers is poised to offer production solid production to a fantasy owner looking to fill a space. He has been targeted an average of five times over the last three games, and he’s become a quality red-zone target for quarterback Eli Manning with touchdowns in back-to-back games. Fantasy owners who don’t own great tight end can use either of the two listed here to fill the gap.
Wide Receiver, Doug Baldwin, Seattle Seahawks
Baldwin isn’t dominant, but he is a serviceable receiver who has grown into a good fantasy option. He’s been impressive in recent weeks with three touchdowns in his last four games. Baldwin caught four passes for 77 yards and a touchdown in Seattle’s victory over the Saints.. Baldwin is worth a start as a flex option or replace an injured receiver.
Wide Receiver, Brian Hartline, Miami Dolphins
Hartline has been inconsistent this year, but he gave a breath of life to his season during Thanksgiving week with nine catches for 127 yards and a touchdown on 15 targets in Sunday’s game against the Jets. Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill targeted Hartline 41 times over the last four games. With Miami still alive in the AFC wild card playoff race, expect Tannehill to continue targeting his veteran receiver.
These aren’t players to lead your playoff push to the championship, but they can certainly help any fantasy owner survive and advance. Making it to the championship doesn’t have to be pretty. Winning is pretty.
