Sleeper Calls

Jared Goff to outplay his draft cost (being drafted outside of the top 12)

If they do that, Goff could finally crack the top-five after years of knocking on the door.

Jared GoffDetroit Lions

Pat Bryant to outplay his draft cost (going undrafted almost everywhere)

4. Pat Bryant scores more fantasy points than Courtland Sutton ... Bryant, meanwhile, is going undrafted almost everywhere and could be one of the better early-season waiver targets.

Pat BryantDenver Broncos

Bo Nix to outplay his draft cost

And I think it's going to have a huge breakout year. So you know what I'm picking? More on his pass yards, more on his rushing yards

Bo NixDenver Broncos

Tyler Shough to outplay his draft cost

When I go on a show and somebody asks me who's somebody that people aren't talking about that maybe they are going to be, I would say, hey, I might bet on him more than Jackson Dart, right?

Tyler ShoughNew Orleans Saints

Tucker Kraft to outplay his draft cost

If Kraft is fully healthy, he could produce big numbers in 2026.

Tucker KraftGreen Bay Packers

Tyler Warren to outplay his draft cost

while Warren might not be one of the elite fantasy TEs in 2026, he should still be one of the first five tight ends off the board in this year's drafts

Tyler WarrenIndianapolis Colts

Brock Bowers to outplay his draft cost (the back half of the second round or early in the third round of 12-team fantasy drafts)

Bowers is worth a look in the back half of the second round or early in the third round of 12-team fantasy drafts.

Jonah Coleman to outplay his draft cost

thrusting Coleman into the discussion as a late-round dart throw who could provide a massive return if given the opportunity to start

Jonah ColemanDenver Broncos

Chris Rodriguez Jr. to outplay his draft cost (Currently the RB46 in ADP)

Currently the RB46 in ADP, Rodriguez, is being viewed as the fly in the ointment of Tuten's breakout campaign, but I think he can be the more valuable player to roster by season's end.

Chris Rodriguez Jr.Jacksonville Jaguars

MarShawn Lloyd to outplay his draft cost (RB31 in ECR)

MarShawn Lloyd is still ranked as the RB31 in ECR... If — and yes, that is a massive if —Lloyd can stay healthy, he has a shot at low-end RB1 value.

MarShawn LloydGreen Bay Packers

Blake Corum to outplay his draft cost (Currently ranked as the RB35)

Currently ranked as the RB35, I'm fine rostering him in the FLEX spot most weeks and am happy to stash him as an investment with one of the highest ceilings at the position.

Blake CorumLos Angeles Rams

Jonathon Brooks to outplay his draft cost (RB32 in average draft position (ADP))

it appears the market overcorrected, sinking Brooks back down to RB32 in average draft position (ADP)... He simply has a better skill set than Hubbard and a much higher ceiling.

Jonathon BrooksCarolina Panthers

Jalen Coker to outplay his draft cost (WR58 ADP)

If (and yes, it is a major if) Coker stays healthy all season, he should blow past his current WR58 ADP cost.

Garrett Wilson to outplay his draft cost

here are several receivers I'm looking to add to my teams whenever possible, who will outperform their current average draft position (ADP). ... Garrett Wilson (WR – NYJ)

Garrett WilsonNew York Jets

Jaylen Waddle to outplay his draft cost (WR18)

Waddle is currently ranked as the final receiver in Tier 3 in the expert consensus rankings (ECR) as WR18, and he should beat that mark if he remains healthy for 2026.

Jaylen WaddleDenver Broncos

Chris Godwin Jr. to outplay his draft cost

Drafting Chris Godwin might not elicit a lot of "oohs and aahs" from your competition, but it is a smart move to bank on his return to fantasy relevance.

Luther Burden III to outplay his draft cost

Everything has fallen into place for Luther Burden III to have a breakout campaign during his sophomore campaign, and I'm investing whenever possible.

Luther Burden IIIChicago Bears

DJ Moore to outplay his draft cost

While his ECR is lagging far behind his ADP, I don't think those numbers capture his true upside. I'll take him as my WR3 all day long.

DJ MooreBuffalo Bills

Parker Washington to outplay his draft cost

even though he's being drafted much earlier than he was a month or two ago, I'm still willing to make him a priority add

Parker WashingtonJacksonville Jaguars

Isaac TeSlaa to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 245 (WR86))

Isaac TeSlaa is seen as a potential breakout candidate in 2026, which makes his ADP a bit of a head-scratcher.

Isaac TeSlaaDetroit Lions

Emmett Johnson to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 182 (RB57))

Emmett Johnson (RB – KC) | ADP: 182 (RB57) ... If you are looking to take a shot on a running back in the last round of your home league, Johnson would be an excellent choice.

Emmett JohnsonKansas City Chiefs

Sam Darnold to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 183 (QB24))

Sam Darnold (QB – SEA) | ADP: 183 (QB24) ... For a player going outside of the top 175 picks, Darnold is by far the most appealing quarterback in this range, and he could have spike weeks where he is a top-12 option at the position.

Sam DarnoldSeattle Seahawks

Terrance Ferguson to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 168 (TE22))

Terrance Ferguson (TE – STL) | ADP: 168 (TE22) ... While Ferguson has plenty of competition at the position, I think he offers the most upside of any Rams tight end.

Terrance Ferguson

Ray Davis to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 188 (RB63))

Ray Davis (RB – BUF) | ADP: 188 (RB63) ... If Cook were ever forced to miss time, Davis would become one of the more valuable waiver wire running backs in fantasy football.

Ray DavisBuffalo Bills

Chris Bell to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 209 (WR73))

Chris Bell (WR – MIA) | ADP: 209 (WR73) ... for someone with an average draft position (ADP) in the mid-200s, Bell offers enough upside to warrant your attention.
