Targets are a wildly important stat to pay attention to in fantasy football. The more targets a player receives, the more opportunities they have for catches, yards, and touchdowns.
When receivers leave teams, they leave their targets behind which creates openings in offenses for other players to step in and (hopefully) thrive. I like looking through available team targets to find opportunities for potential fantasy sleepers.
Calculation
I’ve complied a list of each team’s available targets, measured by adding up the 2020 targets of players who left in free agency, along with their current depth chart (per Ourlads.com).
