Since Shockey is out and Colston is unlikely to play much is there possibly a sleeper sitting in free agency? I know that question is kind of vague but just think of any TEs that haven't played well this season that might have a "great" game per se and are likely a FA. Like Shockey's replacement, any good?
Also I need to fill my W/R spot and have the option of Arlen Harris (sitting in Free Agency currently) against the Dal D. Any good over Muhs Muham, V. Jackson, or Mark Clayton? I know RBs usually fare better because they get more touches and Arlen is the starting RB for Detroit if that counts for anything when they're going against Dal.
Any suggestions?

Dan Campbell, the Lions' TE is most likely available. He has 4 TD's this season and over 300 yards receiving.
Another choice is Seattle's Jerramy Stevens. He was hurt early in the season and was dropped by a lot of fantasy owners, so if he is available, he would be my first choice if I was in your position.
SF's Vernon Davis has come back from an injury and has been scoring a few TD's although I would not recommend him.
Really I would stick with Colston though. Even though there is a chance he might not plays as much, he still has a better shot at scoring a TD.
As for your W/R flex position I would go with Vincent Jackson. He has come on late in the season as Philip Rivers' favorite receiver. Tomlinson probably won't get as many carries so maybe Michael Turner is a good option. He is most like available in free agency.
The best thing to do is look at these options and make the decisions for yourself. That way if you lose the game you won't think you should have gone with "that other guy."

If you're looking for a decent TE filler that may still be available, I suggest picking up Tony Scheffler from Denver. Jay Cutler has developed a massive man-crush on Scheffler and has been throwing a ton of passes his way. If he hasn't been picked up by now, shame on your league participants for not paying attention.
As for a decent flex play, there's no way you should even consider starting Arlen Harris. No Detroit running back has done squat since KJ went down. Fill the slot with Mark Clayton since he has been putting up big numbers and Baltimore still has something to play for ([playoff bye).

D Clark from the Bears or Vernon Davis 49ers also the tight end from the colts is back this week and Manning really likes him and L Coles from the Jets they play Oakland this week

I had the same issue with Shockey in one of my leagues. I picked up Dominique Byrd of the Rams because the Vikings secondary is severely banged up. He is getting a decent amount of looks recently. As for your receiver/running back spot, I almost always choose a starting running back, and I definitely choose one who gets a decent amount of catches as well in games if I'm in a PPR league. As for this weekend, if your league gives points for return yards, I might look at picking up Wes Welker if he's available in your league and starting him....
Good luck
