We'll be bringing you six fantasy sleepers each and every week throughout the season. Whether you're a fantasy football hipster looking to roster an exciting new player before your league-mates hear about him, a daily fantasy manager looking for a lower-salary player to fill out a lineup loaded with studs, or even just a manager in a pinch due to byes or injuries, we have you covered. In any case, we all need to find a sleeper from time to time. That could be an under-rostered player in season-long leagues, a player with an exciting matchup in a given week, or even a potential star just ahead of their true breakout. In general, sleepers are NFL players that may be flying relatively under the radar in a particular field.
The word 'sleeper' gets thrown around a lot in the world of fantasy football, to the point where an actual definition may vary from person to person.
