10 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 5
Owen Daniels, TE, Denver Broncos
We've learned through four weeks to start tight ends against Oakland. It's just good process, and that's why Owen Daniels makes sense in Week 5.
Daniels only ranks 20th among 23 tight ends with at least 15 targets in Reception NEP per target, but that's a moot point. He's going to be the first man up for tight end snaps and targets (though a Virgil Green touchdown snipe could be frustratingly possible). Daniels, though, has played 239 offensive snaps compared to 101 for Green.
He might not be providing the usual production from a Peyton Manning tight end, but he can get the job done in Week 5. He's our 10th-ranked tight end for the week.
