Super Cubs 131 Posted September 9 Name your sleeper draft pick. Lets not wait till they blow up and be like I took him late in my draft because I knew he'd be a stud. BULL SH . . . . . . . . . . . . stuff! Rashid Shaheed - Not really a future stud but I do think he could take Michael Thomas spot as the Saints #2 Wr. Tyjae Spears - for next year when he's the lead RB in Tennessee. Tank Dell - because I'm a Texans fan and he's my homer pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chickie 34 Posted September 9 Ty Chandler. With Mattison being given the keys to the car, someone has to step into the backup role that Mattison performed for Cook. The jury is still out on whether or not Mattison is capable of being that 18+ touch feature back. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gepetto 879 Posted September 9 Anthony Richardson (if I can call him a sleeper) Jordan Love Jahan Dotson (not sure if he qualifies as a sleeper) Romeo Doubs Rashod Bateman Darius Slayton Tank Bigsby although he's more just a handcuff for Etienee who was my RB Keeper. After Christian Watson's injury, I added Jayden Reed I didn't get the following players but they were my value plays if I could have: Khalil Herbert James Cook A sleeper too deep to roster in my league is: Trey Palmer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When Tank finishes with more fantasy points than Etienne, you'll change your tune. I'm not joking, think there's a very good chance that happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Might get more work than some expect this year as Titans reduce Henry's massive workload and also see what they've got in their 3rd rd pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GobbleDog 785 Posted September 10 36 minutes ago, Flipper said: I believe he lacks an ACL in one knee ... Can't wit to see him in action Quote Spears suffered two torn ACLs in his past. At the NFL Combine, tests revealed a full thickness cartilage loss, and no ACL in his knee. Additionally, Spears has arthritis. Rapoport said it's unclear how long he will be able to play in the NFL, and even openly wondered if Spears could be a "one-contract guy." At rookie minicamp, Spears was asked several times about him reportedly not having an ACL. Each time the running back was asked, he responded saying, "I am healthy." "I was out there," Spears said, via NFL.com "I did everything. So, I feel perfectly fine. Nothing wrong with me. I'm healthy." Holy crap. That's insane. Now I'm really rooting for this kid.

Run first team, with an excellent run block O line. Ford can catch the ball out of the backfield too, something Chubb doesn’t excel at. If Chubb gets hurt, Ford catapults to near RB1 territory.

Ford can catch the ball out of the backfield too, something Chubb doesn’t excel at. If Chubb gets hurt, Ford catapults to near RB1 territory. I won't draft a backup just for the sake of having a handcuff, unless I actually believe in the guy. I've done that (Chuba the bum) - even when he got the job, he stunk and nobody was surprised - including me. But with Ford I think he has skills. Started college at Alabama but couldn't get on the field (no shame there), transfers to Cinci and breaks all kinds of rushing records. Played rookie year with Browns, but buried on depth chart behind Hunt and others. Though he was special teams returner, and coaches give that job to guys with good hands (can catch). Then Browns let Hunt walk indicating their faith in Ford. Considering all that, along with Browns o-line and run-first mentality, felt like a worthy handcuff.

Do you like Bigsby more than Achane? I have him deep on my bench in a 10 team ppr league. I also have Toney deep on my bench Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also have Toney deep on my bench I was targeting Achane in my keeper when the Etienne owner took him earlier than expected. So as a FU pick I took Bigsby with my next pick. The other owner was more than a little upset with me. He offered me Achane straight up but I turned him down saying I need more. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rotisserieking 32 Posted September 13 12th round: Zay Flowers (looks good after 1 week) 15th round: Van Jefferson (oops, already dropped for Gus Bus) Count me in on the Spears watchers. If my Gus pickup flops I might just grab Spears as a speculative add. Many experts on XM87 and XM88 talking about what a talent this kid is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
