# Pat Fitzmaurice: Fitzmorris names Bears RB Roschon Johnson a deep sleeper, arguing the rebuilt interior offensive line and Ben Johnson's scheme could make him a David Montgomery-style goal-line back. He also likes Browns rookie Dylan Sampson as a late-round talent bet and Panthers WR Jalen Coker as a late-round flyer, and would rather have Tyler Warren than Hunter Henry.

3 checkable claims — 2 sleeper calls and 1 fantasy ranking — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet.

It names 4 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

All 3 have settled, averaging 33.3 out of 100, against 50 for a naive guess at the same calls.

> So Roshan is a pretty compelling deep sleep.
