i notice peyton slipping in some drafts to the late 3rd to 4th rds. i was thinking of taking elite rbs/wrs up to that point. grab peyton and a guy like stafford/bradford/freeman in the mid to late rds to cover for him until he comes back. what you think about that Slick?

It's pretty hard to turn down Peyton that late. I'd be all for it as long as you take quality, low-risk picks before him.

I'm drafting this Sunday and will talk more about my sleepers after I get them. One has a late round ADP and the other doesn't even have one [pic]. But then again the one without an ADP is an injury away before he can do anything.

I like pretty much all of those players except Addai/Meachem that Slick has on his list.

And I feel like looking at tight end after the top few I see so many sleepers that can break out that I might just grab 2 late round flyers instead of drafting one of the top 10.

You think you got some sleepers on this site? Must have quite a bit on the line lol

You gotta get on the Meachem bandwagon, man. Colston's knees are like jello and Moore just got hurt.

TE is ridiculous. My honest prediction is that by all accounts, TE looks very deep. But once the year gets going, you're still only going to have 5 or 6 solid TEs and the rest are really inconsistent, like last season.

The only TEs that I really trust are Gates, VD, Clark and Witten.

In other news, Ryan Grant still blows. One of the most over-rated RBs ever.

08-25-2011, 11:26 PM

I just don't like competition for sleepers. I already pick them 2 rounds before where they should be picked and I don't want to go beyond that. Last year taking Mike Williams from a Bucs fan was !!ing priceless and I wana do something similar again this year [pic]

As long as it's not Stevie Johnson..

08-25-2011, 11:54 PM

I like Stevie Johnson but no hes not really a sleeper unless people think hes going to be like top 5 or something.

I think he'll be over-drafted in most leagues.

No Lee Evans and the same !!ty OL will really hurt.

Saw some stats that showed how he performed when Evans was on the field vs when he wasn't and the production was similar. I believe when him and Parrish were out there together they combined for the best production for the offense and Johnsons stats

I just don't see him beating consistent doubles all season in Buffalo.

08-26-2011, 11:53 AM

Well I don't see him being double teamed [pic]. I just like his talent enough to take him around where hes going compared to the other receivers in the area except maybe Manningham. WR is deep this year though so I'm not stressing on getting him

He's got talent, but he's very immature and in a very limited offense that plays in a lot of awful weather. I don't see why defenses wouldn't bracket him. Fitz can't throw the deep ball and they have no other receiving threats unless Spiller suddenly turns into Reggie Bush.

Let someone else gamble.

MOTHER!!ER Chris Harris just put 2 of my sleepers on his !!ing list and everyone in my league reads that !!.

Why couldn't this mother!!er do this !! after Sunday? A list of non obvious sleepers aside from Delone Carter and he has to mention mine. IHalf mad that he did it but I like seeing someone who hasn't been on many lists if any get mentioned that I have been keeping my eye on

[pic] [pic][pic]

08-26-2011, 01:36 PM

That's why you gotta have an early draft if you want more sleepers to exist.

A lot of people fight that idea, but I love havin a draft right after the first preseason game.

08-26-2011, 01:45 PM

Yea I just dislike injuries ruining !! like Ryan Williams this year.

I'm just a bit angry I have my list of players to target and to see them on the front page kind of pisses me off.

Inuries happen at anytime either way. I remember drafting Anthony Gonzalez in the 6th or 7th a few years ago and he got hurt on a fluke play like 3 snaps into the season and was never heard from again.

Be happy if you're the one that gets the prediction right and not necessarily the order [pic]
