Fantasy football sleepers to play in Week 18

Here are some fantasy football sleepers to play in Week 18 of the 2024 season.

While the majority of fantasy football leagues have concluded, there are still some leagues that partake in a Week 18 championship, and we’re still here to help those who need it.

And, even though the vast majority of fantasy managers are no longer competing, we can use these sleepers for prop betting and DFS plays.

Fantasy football waiver wire: Week 17 free-agent forecast

Here are the top waiver wire targets for Week 17 in fantasy football.

The majority of fantasy football leagues come to an end this week. It has been a long and, at times, frustrating process navigating the waiver wire.

While the majority of us have seen our seasons end with disappointment, we’re still here to give our takes on the top suggestions on the waiver wire as the fantasy football season concludes.

Even for those of us who have been eliminated, this can be a good chance to find some DFS dart throws or simply keep up with storylines heading into the offseason.

Before we get to it, though, I’d like to thank you for sticking with us all season. We wouldn’t be here without the readers. It’s a privilege to write about fantasy football — let alone have people actually read it. Even though the suggestions haven’t always worked out, we couldn’t be more appreciative of the time you’ve spent with us this season and, hopefully, some of you benefited from our advice.

We’ll be taking a look at the top available players rostered in Yahoo, using the 75% rostered mark (at least 25% availability) as the threshold. If you have any questions about prioritizing a certain player over another, don’t be afraid to hit me up on X, formerly Twitter, (@KevinHickey11). Your questions and comments are always welcome!

Because it’s Week 17, the focus is going to be more on one-week plays for the championships, but we’ll also throw in some potential stashes for Week 18 considering some leagues are still playing at that time.

Can Denver’s receivers offer anything more than Courtland Sutton?

This looks like one of the bleakest WR corps in fantasy. But is that true?

Coming off a disastrous 2022 that saw the Denver Broncos fire their head coach after less than a full season on the job, the team hoped luring Sean Payton out of retirement to take over the reins would turn things around. It did not. A year after finishing 21st in total offense, Denver slipped to 26th overall (298.4 yards per game) and 24th in passing (191.9).

That marked the end of quarterback Russell Wilson‘s time in the Mile High City. He was released and signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The club also moved on from former first-round pick wide receiver Jerry Jeudy, who was traded to the Cleveland Browns. Additions were made as well, including QB Bo Nix, selected 12th overall selection back in April, along with WRs Josh Reynolds, signed from the Detroit Lions in free agency, and Troy Franklin, who played with Nix at Oregon the past two seasons.

While this absolutely feels like a rebuilding year in Denver, that doesn’t mean there won’t be any fantasy value to be found in the Broncos’ receiver room.
