Wide Receivers
Deep Sleeper: Xavier Worthy, Kansas City Chiefs
The 22-year-old is a big-time playmaker who’s excellent with the ball in his hands.He’s even been deployed in similar ways to Rashee Rice this summer, which is yet another sign the team is preparing him as a replacement when their star is forced to sit out.
Deeper Sleeper: No players were mentioned in the provided text.Super-Deep Sleeper: KaVontae Turpin, Dallas Cowboys
Turpin appears to be the No. 3 receiver in Dallas behind CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens. The dangerous return specialist adds another element to the Cowboys’ attack as a speedy field-stretcher,a dynamic yards-after-catch threat and even a weapon out of the backfield at times. despite being a part-time offensive player last season, Turpin still posted 50 yards or more in five outings. If his playing time increases as expected, he could be an intriguing flex option.
Other super-deep sleepers to consider: Josh Reynolds, Jets/Ray-Ray McCloud III, Falcons
Tight Ends
Deep Sleeper: Harold Fannin Jr., Cleveland Browns
Fannin led all of college football with 117 catches and 1,555 yards – more than any receiver had in the FBS last year. He also has 10 touchdowns and forced 34 missed tackles. Joining an offense with an established starter like David Njoku doesn’t seem ideal, but what if fannin isn’t just a tight end? In college, he was used in a variety of ways and the Browns coaches have suggested something similar for him in Cleveland. With Diontae Johnson getting released, it’s possible Fannin could serve as the No. 3 receiver in an offense without a ton of proven playmakers after Njoku and Jerry Jeudy.Deeper Sleeper: Noah Gray,Kansas City Chiefs
Travis Kelce will be 36 in october and is already talking like this might be his last year. while he’s still a capable tight end,he’s coming off career lows in several categories. Simultaneously occurring, Gray has become a meaningful contributor in the Chiefs’ attack. Over the first 15 weeks last season, Gray averaged the 18th most fantasy points among tight ends. If Kelce gets injured, gray will promptly turn into a must-add waiver wire pickup.
Super-Deep Sleeper: Cade Stover, Houston Texans
Stover has been eating into veteran Dalton Schultz’s snaps this summer and that trend might continue into the regular season. The sophomore tight end also has a history with C.J. Stroud going back to their time together at ohio State. Unluckily, the tight end spot in Houston hasn’t been a productive one for fantasy, but we’re searching for guys who could come out of nowhere and produce and Stover’s takeover in the Texans’ TE room appears to have already begun.
