Sleeper Calls

Jaxson Dart to outplay his draft cost

As long as Nagy doesn't completely kill this offense, Dart's talent and rushing ability are worth betting on.

Javonte Williams to outplay his draft cost (an RB15 price tag)

Still, for an RB15 price tag, you could potentially be getting an RB1 caliber player, so keep an eye out for him in your drafts.

David Montgomery to outplay his draft cost (He's currently going as the RB23 in PPR leagues.)

Now, with 200-plus carries in his future, Montgomery should maintain his position as a higher-end RB2. He's currently going as the RB23 in PPR leagues.

David MontgomeryHouston Texans

Tony Pollard to outplay his draft cost

there's no reason to believe Pollard, barring injury, will suddenly fall off... three running backs that I believe you should target on your fantasy roster, regardless of format, because their floors are too high to pass up.

Mike Washington to outplay his draft cost

The weekend's other must-roster handcuff, and the biggest riser on the board over the past week... Between Lloyd and Washington, the two best handcuffs in fantasy football are both spiking for the same reason

Mike Washington

MarShawn Lloyd to outplay his draft cost (a priority late-round target)

He was already a strong handcuff and the suspension risk makes him a priority late-round target with standalone upside.

Deebo Samuel Sr. to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 52)

Samuel should be a viable WR3/flex with upside for 2026 in the 49ers’ offense.

Denzel Boston to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 60)

Boston could easily be the Browns’ WR1 after we flip over the cards for the 2026 season, and it’s not reflected in his draft price at all. Draft him and Concepcion late

Denzel BostonCleveland Browns

Keenan Allen to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 63)

Allen is a viable WR3/4 this season or a flex play with a lean toward PPR formats.

Stefon Diggs to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 45)

Diggs is a strong WR3 with upside this season. I expect the Washington passing attack to be funneled through Diggs and Terry McLaurin.

Tre Harris to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 75)

That suggests he could see much more playing time (and targets) than his bottom-dwelling ADP would indicate in 2026.

Jalen Nailor to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 58)

Nailor is the final pick in a draft that could pay dividends and become a weekly WR3 or flex if it all works out.

Ashton Jeanty to outplay his draft cost (1.11)

One player available at this spot with undeniable upside is Ashton Jeanty.

Justin Jefferson to outplay his draft cost (1.11)

there are reasons for optimism in 2026... Jefferson should be fine if his catchable target rate increases and he sees a bump in volume.

CeeDee Lamb to outplay his draft cost (1.11)

If you're happy to believe 2025 was a blip rather than the new normal, it becomes easier to see Lamb as a value pick in this range.

Saquon Barkley to outplay his draft cost (1.11)

With a new offensive coordinator and a healthy offensive line, it's not hard to start seeing positives for Barkley.

Najee Harris to outplay his draft cost

Harris is also a solid late-round sleeper, as his ADP hasn't moved much despite signing with New York.

Najee HarrisNew York Giants

Kenneth Walker III to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 2.06)

If his usage expands in the passing game or Andy Reid leans more heavily on the run than in recent seasons, Walker has the upside to finish as a top-five fantasy running back.

Kenneth Walker IIIKansas City Chiefs

Omarion Hampton to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 2.07)

If McDaniel elevates the Chargers' offense into one of the league's best and Hampton handles the clear majority of backfield touches, he could be in for a special season.

De'Von Achane to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 1.12)

De'Von Achane is falling to round two: The Dolphins have talked about giving Achane the ball more than any other running back, yet concerns about the quality of Miami’s offense are keeping too many fantasy managers away.
