I'm in a 12 man league with 16 man rosters. My draft was so-so, I could use some improvement therefore I'm wondering if anyone knows of any DEEP sleepers, guys that you think are about to emerge that haven't yet.

Olandis Gary was just traded to the Lions, and most likely will be starting. I don't know how much of a sleeper he is, but he will get you some yards and TD's and he should be available.

Whoever the #2 WR of Minnesota is will do ok, they always do because of Moss.

I believe it's D'Wayne Bates and he has been drafted. I should add a few DEEP sleepers: Weaver the TE for SF b/c the starting TE is out 6-8 weeks and San Fran uses their TE, Calico from T Titans, but not until about midseason.

Not sure if there are many deep sleepers left, seems that most players who get talked about don't end up being sleepers. The other guy in Minnesota is Bates although Burleson has done well in pre season and might be worth picking up.

Aaron Elling. He's Minnesota's kicker. If they score as much as everyone says they will, he should be top 10, maybe even top 5. Nothing beats saying his name in the last round and having everyone simultaneously say, "WHO?!!!"

DEEP sleepers, how about Reche Caldwell (WR- SD)? Also, you should stay on the lookout for backup RBs who have a chance to play.

Some potentially excellent fantasy contributors in the event of an injury to their respective, injury prone starters:
LaBrandon Toefield, JAX
Najeh Davenport, GB
Larry Johnson, KC (I'm sure he's gone already)
Thomas Jones, TB (if Pittman goes to jail, likely)

Of those Elling, Caldwell and Toefiled are still available but JAX just grabbed another rb. I'm curious about Caldwell, I had heard that it would be Terry Charles who moved up the depth chart over in San Diego.

Calico, wr for the Titans and obviously the wr for the cardinals who went off this weekend.

Justin Fargus could be a deep sleeper.

MNF mentioned last night that Pittman's trial was moved up to January (wonder why!), but I wouldn't doubt that Thomas wins the starting job by then anyway.

By Thomas do you mean Thomas Jones?

Quick help guys, I'm being offered Stacey Mack for Anthony Thomas (A-train), should I go w/Mack or should I ask for K. Faulk?

Bobby Shaw of Buffalo is a good one. He is filling in for the missing Peerless Price rather well. I just picked him up off the waiver wire for two of my espn teams.

i am sticking with one of mine from the preseason: Drew Bennett

Bryant Johnson, now starting for the Cards at WR and quietly putting up good #s, M. Hatchette, WR for the Jags who will be even better when Jimmy Smith comes back to take pressure off of him and remember you heard D Clark TE for Indie, right here first. I don't trust Bennett yet, so far everyone has torched that secondary, Bobby Shaw is a good call but he's been picked up...noonan.
