8 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 4
Michael Thomas, WR, New Orleans Saints
Even with Willie Snead healthy and active, Michael Thomas has shown some fantasy value. If Snead is limited or misses another game with his toe injury, Thomas' value goes way up.
Here is a look at Thomas' season has looked so far:
| Week | Percentage of Snaps Played | Targets | Reception NEP |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 78% | 6 | 3.27 |
| 2 | 60% | 4 | 5.06 |
| 3* | 89% | 7 | 6.34 |
*Snead did not play in Week 3
Thomas has accounted for 16.8% of the Saints' passing targets so far, and he ranks third on the team with 0.66 Reception NEP per target. As part of a New Orleans Saints' offense that appears to be as strong as ever, currently sitting fifth in the NFL in Adjusted NEP per play, even a somewhat limited role can offer big fantasy value.
