Who are some great sleeper WRs who either didn't start last year, are a rookie, or did start but may be an afterthought?

Not sure he fits in the category of sleeper, but I think Golden Tate could have a huge year being the #1 receiver in Detroit.

Willie Sneed, Tyler Boyd, Vincent Jackson, Marvin Jones, Sterling Shepard and that Lockett kid from Seattle. A possible big time sleeper could be Treadwell from Minnesota.

Won´t say those two are sleepers because you can expect a (very) good season from both.

Don´t know what´s Josh Gordon´s current fantasy status is but I think Stefon Diggs will be off the hook this year.

I don't know, I've seen projections for Travis Benjamin all over the place. Last year he had a few good games, but he was quiet for a lot of the season as well. Then again, he was being thrown to by Johnny Manziel and Austin Davis. I think he'll have a very good year, but I would consider him a sleeper.

You´re absolutely right, I read Kelvin Benjamin 8-) (I was a little bit confused with your Johnny Manziel input :lol: )

I have Travis Benjamin in a league and as a Chargers fan always see Rivers increase people's stats. He had 900 yards and like 6 tds last year with Manziel and McCown. Rivers a bit of an upgrade and the best deep ball qb, or one of the best. Plus Stevie Johnson out for the year. So it's basically Allen, Benjamin and Gates.

I don't know if this counts, but I can see Hopkins being even better than last year and potentially the best WR in the league.

I've grabbed him in a couple leagues but I don't know if I trust him just yet. Kinda a flyer. He's big so he could see RZ targets but Benjamin is even bigger...plus Olsen. He's not gonna burn people so he'll have to master the underneath...ugh...I think I just talked myself into diving into the FA pool. BUT...if KB comes up lame again, he could easily be in line for all those touches.

I could drop him for Forsett or Sproles. I have Terrance West so maybe Forsett makes sense to have too.
