Fantasy Football Sleepers

Who are the top fantasy football sleepers this season? A sleeper is that rookie, 3rd year player, free agent or heck any player who has an opportunity to produce league winning numbers outside of their ADP. Sleepers are often categorized as players that fall outside of the consensus top 12 QB's, top 24 RB's, top 36 WR's and top 12 TE's. But on this site we don't use hard fast rules. If a player is under appreciated we will call them a sleeper.

Either way you look at them, sleepers have upside to outproduce ADP. Stick with ADP to minimize your risk. You better have a long list and rank those sleeping beauties or else you'll end up with a bunch of has been washed up fantasy duds. So do yourself a favor and check out the articles below, they contain our top fantasy football sleepers for this NFL season.

April 8, 2012 by Kurt Turner

It’s 2012. We all know to be wary of a running back with a history of injuries. But there is a difference between factoring injury risk into your draft sheets and assuming an injury is inevitable.

Let’s get one thing straight, sleepers are not sure bets, but they’re bets worth making. This is how […]

2012 Fantasy Football Sleeper: Running Back Bernard Scott

February 1, 2012 by Greg Brosh

One look at the Bengals’ 2011 squad and you never would have thought they’d be good enough to make it to the playoffs. With rookie Andy Dalton under center, I thought they would be a 5-11 or 6-10 team at best. But things are looking up for the Bengals going into the offseason, despite losing […]

2012 Fantasy Football Sleeper: Quarterback Colin Kaepernick

January 26, 2012 by Greg Brosh

The 49ers do have a fantasy football sleeper in 2012, it’s just not Alex Smith. There is no denying that what Jim Harbaugh managed to do with the 49ers and Smith was beyond miraculous. A mediocre team just one year ago at 6-10, Smith and company were possibly one muffed punt away from going to […]
