Who is your dynasty sleeper? (1 Viewer)

Pierre Thomas :bag:

I believe that Duece will be a Saint next year, but if memory serves, I think his contract jumps to 5M+ next season, and it's not that much of a stretch on the imagination to see the Saints shifting $$$ to the defensive side of the ball, and my guess is they would still want a 15 carry per game kind of back to compliment Reggie.

Undrafted Thomas looked great in pre-season, so much that the team kicked Antonio Pittman to the curb. All in all, he's a decent talent in a decent situation, given his cost - which is the last roster spot on your team.

 
Drew Stanton
:thumbup: I picked him up this year in my dynasty league. It is a start 1 QB league and I have bulger and rivers but I still wanted to stash him for the future. With Martz, Williams and Johnson in Detroit Stanton has the coach and the weapons to succeed down the road.We will see :popcorn:
 
My favorite cheap dynasty sleepers:

Kellen Clemens

Ahmad Bradshaw

Laurent Robinson

Demetrius Williams

Jeff King

 
Even though he's been mentioned repeatedly:

Demetrius Williams

Ben Obomanu

Laurent Robinson

Mike Walker

Jason Avant

And, don't forget about Chris Perry. Stranger things have happened.

 
I'm in a 12 team contract dynasty league, 24 player roster (including 3 player taxi squad) and the current deep sleepers I'm watching:

QB-Boller

RB-C.Perry, Mu. Smith

WR-Avant, Colbert, Mi Clayton, Burleson, Ro White

TE-J. King, D.Lee

K-Crosby, Folk

Def-Indy

Very nice list.It's all relative really. Some say Demetrius, others say he's a "Now" not a "Stash".Some say Ben Obomanu is too deep, yet others like him.There are more stashes in the IDP world right now I'd say - guys like Okwo, Durant, Blades, Nicholas (yes I like LBs).... all good values.When looking for 2008, look for someone that should get the nod and burst onto the scene, virtually out of nowhere, yet you should know his name.Jason Avant comes to mind.We all know that I've been a big promoter of Jeff King, Patrick Crayton, Demetrius Williams, etc. Those panned out reasonably well. Zach Hilton? Justise Hairston? Not so much. Can't win 'em all.If you want to find some names, go walk through the NFL draft list from 2006 and 2005. If they are still in the league, or better yet, still on the same roster - you better believe that the organization believes in their talents. They'll get their shot.Matt Cassel should also get a mention.

I like Perry a lot too. When healthy he's flashed impressive talent. Drafting Irons was interpreted by some as giving up on Perry, but I think that was unfair. Rudi is going to turn 28 this season and there was no dependable RB depth behind him. After he comes off of PUP, Perry has a shot at some reps and could re-emerge as a viable starting quality RB in Cincinnati. Since he can be had for a song, should step readily into the RB2 spot in Cincy when/if healthy later this year, and has shown big time talent when he's been given the opportunity, he seems like a valuable stash and wait candidate.

I'll agree with that. If you snagged an Irons/Perry duo, you'd have a reasonable shot at a top 15-20 back at a modest price. Even if neither of those guys becomes the starter in Cincinnati, they have enough talent to compete for playing time on a different team.
 
Aundrae Allison is probably in your FA, he's one to keep an eye on. currently 5th on the vikes depth chart, but has looked good in camp/preseason and had a nice catch sunday.

 
Mine is Kyle Boller. Though not likely because Billick doesn't have the nuts to do it, I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility he's the permanent starter there.

I really hope someone in that organization has noticed McNair's downward decline. I'm somewhat surprised Boller signed that 1 year $3 million extension a week or two ago.

 
Germaine Race RB San Diego Chargers

Reasoning based on the following:

Michael Turner will not be in San Diego next year to back up LT

Darren Sproles is not the answer, he is a finesse back

Germaine Race was signed to a two year tender as a free agent after the draft

The chargers put him on the IR versus releasing him for a toe injury

He ran like a man possessed in college and did the same in the pre season when given the opportunity

LT wont stay healthy forever but if you have him count your blesings while they are happening

and lastly everyone bashed me about Race not even making the team and they were ALL wrong aka previous posts

 
I already have a few of the guys I consider sleepers/deep sleepers on my roster, last year I picked up D Williams as my sleeper candidate. This year it was Ahmad Bradshaw.

Here are a few others I feel warrant attention from owners in deeper leagues:

-Johnnie Lee Higgins

-Kenneth Darby

-Jason Hill

 
Cleo Lemon - QB Mia

He looks really sharp actually when he plays, and has a good attitude, has just needed a chance to start somewhere. He is a FA after the season I believe.
