Who would be your sleeper pick for a fantasy football league?

Someone who isn't ranked high but could have a huge breakout year? Thanks

    Use this list when you draft... It's updated, every week. You should print it out, and cross off the names that are picked. I guarantee you, some of them will slip to you.

    Before LeCharles Bently got hurt (center, Browns) I was going to say Reuben Droughns, no question. Bently was an all-pro center, but Droughns will still do well.

    Here is a brief list of players that went late or undrafted in my league that have a lot of upside. I would not recommend using a high pick for any of these guys, but are good for your late round because of the potential for greatness this season:

    QB Steve McNair ( Ravens)

    QB Drew Bledsoe ( Cowboys) - could be picked earlier than most on this list - he slipped to round 18 in my league tho

    RB - Mike Bell (Broncos) The starter on a run centered team

    RB - Frank Gore (49ers) #1 man on a not so hot team

    RB - Kevin Barlow ( Jets) #1 man on a not so hot team

    RB - Jerious Norwood (Falcons) Might be their short yardage back for TDs, pick late because Dunn is the starter

    WR - Reggie Brown (Eagles) #1 man on a pass heavy team, ready for a breakout season

    WR - Marty Booker ( Dolphins) #2 man on a pass heavy team, ready for a breakout season w/ Culpepper at QB

    WR Braylon Edwards ( Browns) #1 man on a not so hot team, looked real sharp till he got hurt last year

    WR - Mark Clayton (Ravens) With McNair, his number should go up

    Chris Simms - QB TB - Had a strong finish last year. Has good running game which will help the passing game.

    Braylon Edwards - CLE - His numbers were'nt huge last year due to his injury. He may be a bit of a risk, but he seems OK so far. He was Charlie Frye's main target before he got hurt last year, and the two were starting to work well together.

    You can probably get both of these guys in late rounds or even as Free Agents in some leagues.

    Kellen Winslow Jr- Cleveland

    Roddy White- Atlanta

    Mike Bell - Denver

    (although that may be running back by committee all year)

    Laurence Maroney , Patriots

    (if anyone believes Dillon will stay healthy all year at this point- good luck with that)

    I agree with the McNair and Heap picks, I'd say also Mark Clayton, Mike Clayton, and Greg Jones.

    Though Jones won't start, Fred Taylor is always hurt, so he'll get touches

    Marty Booker, Jamal Lewis if you can get him cheap, and Kurt Warner and the Arizona receivers. I like the Redskins recievers too, even though their preseason has been terrible. If you can get Brandon Lloyd or Cooley cheap, take them.

    Kellen Winslow Jr.

    Vernon Davis

    Billy Volek--I think he is going to have a chip on his should and want to prove to the team and fans they should have stuck with him and never drafted Vince Young.
