Jesus2 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 NFL starts soon and my fantasy league draft is in a couple days. Wanted to hear some opinions on some sleeper picks from those who follow and/or participate in fantasy leagues. My sleepers: Tim Hightower RB (WSH) Jamie Harper RB (TEN) Willis McGahee RB (DEN) Beanie Wells RB (ARI) Julio Jones WR (ATL) Steve Breaston WR (KC) Lee Evans WR (BAL) Dez Bryant WR (DAL) Mario Manningham WR (NYG) Aaron Hernandez TE (NE) All the players I listed, I expect to have good seasons... There's guy I think might be of some value maybe mid season but not draft worthy just yet. Guys like Earl Bennett (CHI), Dante Rosario (DEN), Eric Decker (DEN), Colt McCoy (CLE), Domenik Hixon (NYG). Players to avoid: Knowshon Moreno Jay Cutler Peyton Hillis Ryan Grant Jahvid Best Any Bengals player.. (Except maybe AJ Green) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LazaHorse Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 i always try to get an trade an make the patriots team lol bc they are awsome. So many facepalms... Yeah Jesus it seems like Tim Hightower is the one "sleeper" that everyone knows about lol. Everytime this convo comes up, Hightower is mentioned so... is he really a sleeper? hahaha... He's gonna have a good yeah and the Redkins might actually go positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a sleeper because many leagues consist of household names like adrian peterson. chris johnson, ray rice etc. But hightower isn't considered part of that group yet he's shown in washington so far he has the potential to do that. Phillip Rivers, never enough respect and I think Rivers is considered an elite NFL QB. I think thats plenty of respect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus2 Posted August 30, 2011 Author Share Posted August 30, 2011 when hes rated lower then Drew Brees its disrespect. I have to disagree with you. I think Drew Brees is a better quarterback. But it's all opinion so fair enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.jiggles Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I have to disagree with you. I think Drew Brees is a better quarterback. But it's all opinion so fair enough. Not really Phillip had the most passing yards and the number 1 offense last year, and he did it with rookie unsigned free agents Malcolm Floyd, Vincent Jackson, and Antonio Gates all missed a bunch of games.

Jesus2 Posted August 30, 2011 Author Share Posted August 30, 2011 Not really Phillip had the most passing yards and the number 1 offense last year, and he did it with rookie unsigned free agents He also had more passing yards then Peyton Manning, and Peyton had All-Pro receivers like Dallas Clark and Reggie Wayne, but I think we can both agree Peyton's better then Rivers. Stats over 1 year doesn't make 1 player better then the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
