7 Deep Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 8

Robby Anderson, WR, New York Jets

Yahoo! Ownership: 25%

The New York Jets' offense has surprised many by how well they've played in recent weeks. The performance of quarterback Josh McCown has not detracted from the Gang Green's skill players, as is the perception, but has propelled many of them into valuable fantasy options, even with low ownership rates. Robby Anderson is one of those players.

Despite averaging 6.6 targets per week, the Jets' receiver is available in 75% of Yahoo! leagues. Anderson has been steady, catching at least 3 passes in 5 of 7 games while leading the team with 331 receiving yards this season. The team's most frequently targeted player, Anderson is in line for a heavy workload in Week 8 as the Jets are 4.5-point underdogs to the Atlanta Falcons, meaning a pass-heavy game script is likely for New York.

The Falcons, for all their strengths, haven't been at their best when defending the pass. They come in as the 25th-ranked passing defense, according to our metrics, and have allowed four passing touchdowns in the last two games.
