Dynasty League Football Forum

Who are you targeting as sleepers, under the radar or sneaky sneaky good players on both sides of the ball. Don't tell us about the upside players we all know about, tell us who you're targeting because you're smarter than everyone else...

I like Dylan Moses – LB, JAX (UDFA), his college carrier was all over the place stat wise but is literally one injury away from starting in JaxTown. He was able to post solid solo tackle stats in college between injuries and we've seen several LB feast in JaxTown on tackles alone. Next!

Haven’t been in a ton of drafts, but I’m targetting Lawrence in multiple leagues. Sure he’s not a sleeper per se, but to get imo the best QB prospect of maybe all-time from 7-11 is a steal and great value. This guy could easily elevate himself to QB5 and beyond in dynasty with just one good year and you are going to have him for hopefully 10+ years. Even in 1QB that is valuable to me.

My sleeper is this kid from Castle Rock, CO named Chris (I think its Chris, maybe Christian, not sure). Comes from a family of football players. Went to a small, private research university in California. I think he could possibly have a top 5 year at RB for Charlotte football team.

I thought this post was going to be about Sam Darnold’s vaccine stance.

Tyler Higbee is too cheap right now and I haven’t heard anything about him.

I play in mostly large QB premium leagues - 16 team 2QB or 16 team supeflex leagues with deep rosters.

I’m targeting QB handcuffs Tyler Huntley and/or Trace McSorley (more importantly whichever one wins the backup spot to Lamar Jackson). I think it’s just a matter of time before Lamar gets hurt and one of those guys gets to play. Then it’s a quick flip to the Lamar owner (or another QB needy team). FYI - I don’t have any long term faith in these two guys, but QB handcuffs could potentially pay off in leagues like mine. And for the cost of a waiver add, I would take a chance if you have roster spots.

2 deep sleepers for me this year are

Gerrid Doakes - Big back and while I think Gaskin is under rated Miami just feels like a situation where someone can come out of nowhere

Stevie Scott - UDFA at the Saints. 230lb RB, after Kamara we have Murray on a team that runs it a ton

Noah Gray - Kelce has retire at some point and he is quite a versatile player with some limitations. Deep stash if you have the roster space

Kylen Granson-TE-Colts- They spent a 4th round pick on him and it’s not like he has any studs ahead of him. I think he’s worth a late pick in a startup or off waivers, I’m also talking more in TE premium leagues, I’ve already picked him up off waivers in 5 TE premium leagues and they have 30 man rosters. He’s probably not a very interesting pickup right now for any leagues.

Cade Johnson-WR-Seattle- I’ve taking him late in a couple of startups, he was undrafted but P.Carroll tends to like undrafted players and I think he’s worth taking a chance on as a last pick or for basically free off waivers in some leagues.

Lol not sure if this is a joke, but I’d say the actual sleeper I’m looking at is Jacob Harris. He’s a great athlete for his size and McVay is creative enough to mix him in somewhere. Basically free. I actually like his ball skills/tape too.

1. Not sure how much Mooney, the WR in Chicago is on people's radar.
2. Firkser, the TE in TEN. Jones hurts his value, but could be a nice sleeper.
3. Hearing Tevin Coleman in NYJ may be the starter, has limited value, as Carter WILL take over.
4. Kendrick Bourne, WR in NEP. He's getting some traction.
5. Mo Alie-Cox, TE, at the Colts. Hearing things.
6. Zaccheaus the WR in ATL now that JJ has gone.
7. Heineke the QB in WASH. Could he beat out Fitz?
8. I don't think Mike Davis in ATL is a sleeper, but he could be a STUD and is undervalued now IMO.
9. Tre'Quan the WR in NOS. Emerging. Especially if Winston is QB.
10. Is this the year that Kmet puts it all together? Maybe.
11. Same with Trautman in NOS.
12. I'm on the fence with TE Irv Smith, but maybe he's ready?
13. Deep sleeper Pooka Williams RB in DEN.

Hope that helps.

Haha, confirmed, it was a joke

My inner Homer Simpson wants to provide the sleepers and the comatose.
Gus Edwards will score almost as much in fantasy as Dobbins, but is a lot cheaper.
Trautman will be a TE1, low-end but TE1 nonetheless.
Mike Davis will definitely be a T15RB, and might be a league changer.
I'm not drafting Mooney on any of my teams. Nope. Not going to do it. My inner HomerSimpson says 2021 stats will be same as 2020.
Watson will not play a single game this season.
CJMosley will be a Top10LB for IDP.
Devante Parker will not be a T50WR. He's been a low-efficiency volume player every year and now that Miami has better receivers set up, Parker won't see enough opportunities to cash in with his low-efficiency.
Cam Newton will be putrid - no surprise there. But Jones will also be putrid, meaning every offensive player on NE should be avoided like the plague. This team is either going to win a lot of 16-13 games or go 8-8.
Golladay will be a WR1.
The 2020 DEF I expect to make the jump from 20+ to Top10DEF: Tennessee Titans
The 2020 DEF that will drop from the Top10 to 20+: Arizona Cardinals
This 10thRd+ quartet might start for your championship team: Mike Williams, Zack Moss, Austin Hooper and Daniel Jones
Finally, don't sleep on Justin Simmons. Don't do it.

Agree on Davis

8-9 now, but This take terrifies me as a pats fan because i can see it being true because Bill B is too good to go 3-14. If pats are in that mid pick range forever they will never really get a qb. However i do think Jones is set up for succeeding even if he isnt the most talented. People forget this Coach won 3 super bowls when Brady wasnt God Tier yet. Brady didnt take that next step until he got Moss, and he still had a 10 year SB drought after that. Im not saying Mac Jones is brady but Bill B can certainly succeed with a QB like Mac Jones.

As far as sleepers go, do we count Trey Lance? I think he has everything to be a great fantasy qb, not so sure about real life yet, but definitely fantasy.

Gonna be a homer and also say this Pats D is being slept on, they can be the 2019 pats defense again

Gerald Everett seems to be being slept on a bit, that seahawks offense is going to throw more and will be much more creative in how they throw

I cant get on board at all with the Mike Davis and Trequan smith takes, stay away from those two

PatD is my personal sleeper D. Bill never has a bad DEF and I'm betting he'll work magic on the D to try to save the team from the horrible offense. I never mention them when I'm talking to guys in my redraft leagues, because I don't want anyone else to want them.

Tre'quan might have missed his 3rd year improvement and be trying to do it in his 4th year, but he'll do it without me. I'm in the wait and see mode with him.
