8 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 9

Marquez Valdes-Scantling, WR, Green Bay Packers

It seemed liked Marquez Valdes-Scantling was going to lose all fantasy value with both Randall Cobb and Geronimo Allison returning from their injuries last week. MVS had logged only 2 targets in his first three games of the season before stepping into a starting role sans those two and notching 19 over three games.

His workload did get dialed back a bit in Week 8 as he didn't see anything close to the near 90% snap share he did in Weeks 5 or 6, but he remained a huge factor. He was on the field for 60% of the team's offensive snaps, which was higher than the marks posted by either Allison (58%) or Cobb (46%).

His 5 targets were second on the team in that game, and his 38 air yards ranked third, giving him the second-highest weighted opportunity rating in the offense, per FantasyADHD.com.

MVS isn't going to overtake Davante Adams any time soon, but he looks like he is still the number-two wideout in Green Bay, giving him plenty of upside on weekly basis.
