Sleeper of the Year

[The Sports Scientist]

i think decker takes the 2 spot... this guy has lots of potential to be a great nfl player.. great hands, good size and speed and he attacks the ball and goes and gets it.. i wouldnt be surprised to see him make 3-4 big catches this year that get him punished over the middle... guy is the real deal imo....

last game of week 3 preseason i havent seen is broncs/seahawks, am looking forward to taking a look at him, vaguely remember noting him earlier in p.s.

 

[KBiggz]

He will definitely turn to fantasy relevancy if he takes the number 2 spot. He's also a big target, which will bode well in the redzone because defenses will be focusing on Lloyd and the run with Fox's history. He should gather 7+ TD's easily if this pans out.

Tim Hightower

thats my pick also. with the qbs the skins have they should look to really utilize hightower

 

[HORSE_SHOES]

Off the wall, I got Andre Roberts. WR2 outta Arizona. Fitz is going to draw alot of doubles, and Zona has passed the ball more then any other team the last couple years. No reason they stop this year, and Roberts could have a lot of 1 on 1's to exploit the weaker CBs in the league. Fitz is going to open the field up for Roberts, I expect a big year for this guy. Theres alot of potential in a late to last round pick on him. Guaranteed hes a FA in your league. Consider this pick up.

Nice. He is on my radar. Draft is tonight. I will post my complete list after that. At least 1 of the guys in my draft knows I post here and my handle etc.

I realize pretty much everyone had their draft, but a lot of these guys will be on waiver wires, even in my deep league some of them are.

they are sort of ranked in value, so the guys at the top dont fit the definition of sleeper as well as the guys towards the bottom.

A Deep Sleeper for me this year is DeMarco Murray. I'm not confident that Felix Jones can keep it together for a whole season and, if healthy, Murray is a beast.

week 2 and down goes felix........... nice call

 

[The Sports Scientist]

Like Romo, he left the game, then returned. Murray is going to be tandem-ing with Choice, a la T Jones and McCluster.

eric decker wr broncos! i got him in a few leagues, i see a very productive year.. 800-900 yards and 7-8 td's

huge game for decker.... time to trade him lol

 

[KBiggz]

huge game for decker.... time to trade him lol

I wouldn't. He should have another productive week this week and probably next. Then he will take the number 2 spot for the season even when royal comes back. Royal is always injured so Decker will hit the 7+ TD's and likely 1000+ yards.

I'm thinking Lynch comes out this week. I benched him week 1 and 2, and rightfully so. He faced SF and Pitt defenses. He should be able to exploit the ARI D. He should finally get 100+ yds and a TD, if not 2. I'm starting him as my RB 2 this week. Good luck!

i grabbed him as a last rb.. hope it pans out, considering my arian foster pick is doing awesome

i have decker in all my leagues.. he was my sleeper this year. not trading him! gonna ride him out as i still think he is a 7-8 td guy and 800 yards as i predicted!!

i also am playing lynch this week.. like the play

 

[The Sports Scientist]

fanastic call w decker mr. hansen. wish i would have drafted him late in my league (deep league) for protection for brandon lloyd...decker is shredding lloyd right now #s wise

 

[KBiggz]

Stick with Lynch. 80+ yds and a TD this week against the Browns. Scored in 2 straight weeks after the Seahawks found a passing game and surpassed the tougher part of their schedule

 

[KBiggz]

I meant to say Lynch will sleep the 1st half of the season. He woke up yesterday against the Cowboys to put up 135 and a TD. He looked strong. That's a good sign coming down the stretch.

 

[The Sports Scientist]

cowboys d gave up like 250 yds on ground the previous week

 

[KBiggz]

Well in the last 8 weeks, Lynch plays only 2 good defenses against the run. That would be Baltimore and San Francisco. Both games happen to be at home, which would be a benefit in that regard. In the first half of the season, he played the 49ers D, Steelers D, Bengals D, Falcons D, and the Cowboys D. All of these defenses are in the top half of the league when it comes to the fewest fantasy points given up to RB's. He also missed a game. I stand on my 1100+ yd. 10+ TD projection for this season. I think he rides the momentum into the fantasy playoffs and will be a difference maker

 

[gynecologist]

Mcgahee was mine..

 

[KBiggz]

Mcgahee was mine..

He's tearing it up. I love seeing a former Raven do work. If he wasn't so expensive he would still be in purple and black

A Deep Sleeper for me this year is DeMarco Murray. I'm not confident that Felix Jones can keep it together for a whole season and, if healthy, Murray is a beast.

awesome awesome call.

in my super deep league, a dude dropped murray after week 6 to pik up bills dst. that friday i picked up murray and dropped denario alexander when the trade deadline rumors were going nuts (lloyd to rams, felix to wherever)
this is a keeper league (only keep 2 players) so i am happy as hell, because the rest of my team is pretty rough for keepers. ryan mathews, philip rivers, julio jones (looking like the best keeper option of those 3 to me right now)
