Week 5 wasn’t a great fantasy sleeper week for us, unless you’re an easy grader and give us credit for Devin Duvernay. But we’re still trying to find under-appreciated values \u200b\u200bfor you and actionable plays.<\/p>\n

Sleeper, of course, is a nebulous term. Use whatever definition works for you. Likewise, this column is whatever you want it to be. Perhaps it helps you make a start\/sit call this week or a DFS decision. Maybe you apply the information to an over\/under prop. Perhaps you’ll add a player to your fantasy bench as depth, but won’t deploy him this week.<\/p>\n

We’re onto Week 6:<\/p>\n

When we think of the Seahawks, we think of a run defense that couldn’t stop a nosebleed. But Seattle’s pass-defense metrics are actually worse. Pete Carroll’s crew currently stands 31st in pass-defense DVOA.<\/p>\n

It’s go-time for Moore, who’s trying to carve a significant role in the Cardinals offense before DeAndre Hopkins returns. Moore hasn’t been a downfield flash in his brief NFL career, but he did snag 7-of-8 targets last week and he’s still available to add in about two-thirds of Yahoo leagues. He’s too good not to be on a roster, and now that the bye weeks have arrived, he’s a possible starter in Week 6.<\/p>\n

There’s a core four in Cleveland and DPJ doesn’t make that list \u2014 the Browns offense is about Nick Chubb, Kareem Hunt, Amari Cooper, and David Njoku. But the passing game has been a three-man tree, with Peoples-Jones seeing 16 looks the last two weeks and posting a reasonable 9-121-0 line. New England’s stingy secondary is surely going to prioritize Cooper, which makes it easy to imagine Peoples-Jones in the 6-8 target range again. His recent production level is a good place to start for your Week 6 expectations, with about a 20-25 percent chance at a touchdown. That would never fly in Week 1, but it might be useful in a skeleton-crew Week 6 situation.<\/p>\n
