Deep Sleepers

  Posted 8/1 by Staff, Exclusive to Footballguys.com

A fantasy draft is all about obtaining the most value with each selection. There is value available throughout a draft, and grabbing it is one of the most important keys to a successful fantasy team. This article specifically targets deep sleeper value (players that can be found very late in a fantasy draft). In an attempt to point out this value, we asked our staff to look deeper than the top 150 players and identify players that should significantly outperform their late draft position.

The following staff contributed to this feature:
David Baker, Sigmund Bloom, Anthony Borbeley, David Dodds, Colin Dowling, Clayton Gray, Jeff Haseley, Andy Hicks, Marc Levin, Jeff Pasquino, Aaron Rudnicki, Chris Smith, Jeff Tefertiller, Maurile Tremblay, Mark Wimer, Jason Wood, and David Yudkin.
