8 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 4
Antonio Callaway, WR, Cleveland Browns
Last week, going by snap count and target data, Rashard Higgins looked like he might be a sneaky bet as the Cleveland Browns wideout that was going to get a big boost with Josh Gordon gone. Antonio Callaway silenced that idea, playing 69 snaps to Higgins' 54 and seeing 10 targets to Higgins' 3. He even played more snaps than Jarvis Landry in that one, though he didn't match Landry's 15 targets.
It was a down game from an efficiency standpoint, hauling in only 4 of those 10 targets for 20 yards and no touchdowns, but we saw in Week 2 that he's got plenty of upside on the efficiency front. He saw only 4 targets in that game but turned them into 81 yards and 1 touchdown.
Callaway will likely continue to be a high-variance receiver, as he's getting a ton of work on downfield passes. He has a huge 16.6-yard average depth of target (aDOT) per FantasyADHD.com, and 5 of his 15 targets have been more than 20 yards downfield.
The Oakland Raiders rank bottom-five against the pass by our metrics, putting Callaway in a favorable spot to convert some of those deep targets into big production this week.
