NO WR Emmanuel Sanders - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 vs Vikings

Emmanuel Sanders has thrust himself into WR2 territory just in time for the fantasy finals with Michael Thomas on injured reserve and Tre'Quan Smith banged up. Sanders saw five targets against the Chiefs and his 76 yards were the most for him in a game since Week 5. An opposing receiver has found the end zone in each of the last three weeks. Sanders is our No. 23 half-PPR wide receiver this week.

NO WR Emmanuel Sanders - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs 49ers

Sanders saw just 30% of snaps last week, but had three more targets than Tre'Quan Smith, who played the highest number of snaps among Saints' receivers, and scored a touchdown. Sanders looked settled again as the Saints' No. 2 receiver, or at least who Brees will look for after Thomas. But with Thomas back, Sanders will have his ceiling capped.

NO WR Emmanuel Sanders - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs Buccaneers

Sanders should be back in the lineup for the Saints this week after recovering from COVID-19. Sanders was finally starting to pick up steam before the bye week. This will be Sander's first game back since Week 5. Sanders did score a touchdown in the first meeting with the Buccaneers. Having Michael Thomas back in the lineup might cap Sanders slightly, but he looked more comfortable in the Saints offense before testing positive for COVID-19.

NO WR Emmanuel Sanders - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs Panthers

We finally saw the big game from Sanders we had been hoping for all year when he caught 12 passes for 122 yards against the Chargers in Week 5. And with Michael Thomas now dealing with a hamstring injury, in addition to the ankle sprain he is still recovering from, Sanders likely takes charge as the top receiver this week against a Panthers defense that is now without safety Juston Burris.

NO WR Emmanuel Sanders - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs Chargers

Sanders was outsnapped by Tre'Quan Smith yet again (62-51) but did see five more targets than Smith against the Lions and posted season-best numbers in receptions (6) and yards (93). Sanders and Smith have become very close in the Saints offense and our fantasy rankings. But if Sanders' early touchdown pattern continues, he'll find the end zone this week.

NO WR Emmanuel Sanders - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs Packers

Sanders scored in Week 1 against the Buccaneers. Other than that, he has been very quiet for a veteran receiver that was supposed to be a strong WR2 in New Orleans. He saw just three targets without Michael Thomas on the field in Week 2. Maybe he sees a better performance if he doesn't run into Jaire Alexander much on Sunday night. Sanders is our WR44 this week.

NO WR Emmanuel Sanders - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 vs Raiders

Sanders caught a touchdown pass in his first game with the Saints, but other than that, was fairly quiet, with just three catches for 15 yards. He even played less snaps than Tre'Quan Smith (44-33). That workload will obviously increase and both will now get plenty of opportunities with Michael Thomas out of the lineup.

Sanders also is pretty familiar with facing the Raiders, thanks to his time in Denver. He's averaged 91 yards and 0.5 touchdowns in his last two games against the silver and black. We have him as WR32 for this week, making him a WR3/Flex option.
