Now is the time to open those trade talks or scour your waiver wire. While everyone has their eyes on the incoming rookie class, look to buy these current NFL players while their values are reduced. You can thank me later.

Kenny Britt’s +36.5-percent (No. 2) Target Premium on the Rams should be all you need to know to acquire Britt in all leagues before he eventually finds himself on a better offense. If you need another reason to buy look at Jared Cook’s playoff performance.

Unable to match the Mike Clay’s article writing speed and efficiency (and proficiency), I remain committed to rage against the machine. I will rise up with deeper, edgier alternatives while staying even truer to the original premise identifying 32 alternative breakout sleepers from each team.

Wendall Williams looks like a more athletic Emmanuel Sanders in a vacuum. A college basketball player that was deemed too small to make the NBA and boasting superhero measurables, Williams went to Cumberlands College where he posted the highest yards per reception in the PlayerProfiler database.

Detroit has made it clear that Stafford is their guy, but Stafford needs improved play on the outside in order for the Lions to do some damage in the playoffs. Enter: Mike Williams. A 6-3, 225 pound monster with a massive catch radius and elite ball skills.

Terrelle Pryor may or may not sign with the Titans this offense but if he does he would no doubt see an exponential increase in efficiency due to Marcus Mariota and he would be in a prime position to replicate his target opportunity and become a top-5 wide receiver in fantasy football.
