2025 Fantasy Football Sleepers

It seems insane to me that Isaac Guerendo is being drafted in the 13th round. Christian McCaffrey played in just four games last year and has an extensive injury history. He’s also in the latter stages of his career. There’s a very good chance Guerendo will see ample playing time, as he no longer has to compete with Jordan Mason or Elijah Mitchell.

Tyler Allgeier will produce monster numbers in Atlanta’s offense if Bijan Robinson suffers an injury. However, Allgeier will even play if Robinson isn’t sidelined. There were multiple games last year when Allgeier was used on the goal line instead of Robinson, so he’s someone you can roster regardless of the injury situation.

Tank Bigsby is the best running back on Jacksonville’s roster, yet he’s going well after Travis Etienne and even Bhayshul Tuten. There have been reports that the new coaching staff is not very pleased with Etienne, so Bigsby will have a good chance to handle the workload on his own.

James Cook is not happy with his contract situation. In fact, he sold his Buffalo home. Perhaps he’s just moving elsewhere in the city, but if there’s any sort of holdout, or holdout-related injury, Ray Davis will stand to benefit. Davis will be capable of producing RB2 numbers in Buffalo’s offense.

De’Von Achane is brittle, and Raheem Mostert is gone, so Jaylen Wright could see decent action this year. I have concerns with Miami’s offensive line, but if the team’s second-round pick pans out, then the team will at least have a strong tandem of guards to help Wright’s production.

This is far too late for Braelon Allen, who is a Breece Hall injury away from posting solid RB2 production. The Jets even improved their offensive line this offseason by drafting Armand Membou with their first-round pick.

Rookie running backs tend to be overdrafted, but that changes once you get to the double-digit rounds. We can find some values here, and it seems as though Jaydon Blue qualifies. Blue is a speedy runner Dallas may not be able to keep off the field. The major selling point is that the competition in front of Blue – Javonte Williams, Miles Sanders – is rather lackluster.

Cedric Tillman was highly productive last year when Jameis Winston supplanted Deshaun Watson. We’ll have to see who Cleveland’s quarterback will be, but Joe Flacco is the favorite to start. Flacco isn’t nearly what he once was, but he’s aggressive and will take shots to Tillman, who will surely pay off his 15th-round price tag.

Will Shipley has impressed in training camp last season and looked great in limited action during the course of the year. The problem was that he was stuck behind both Saquon Barkley and Kenneth Gainwell, but that’s no longer the case because Gainwell is gone. If Barkley, who had a heavy workload last season, goes down, then Shipley will be a huge producer in Philadelphia’s offense.

Roschon Johnson was on our sleeper list last year, and that will continue to be the case. He was the primary goal-line back in Chicago’s offense. He’ll obviously greatly stand to benefit from a D’Andre Swift injury, but we know that Ben Johnson loves utilizing multiple backs, so Johnson will likely be involved regardless.

I don’t understand why Tyler Higbee isn’t getting any love. Didn’t people see how dominant he was in the two playoff games? Matthew Stafford loves throwing to him, and Cooper Kupp is gone, so Higbee will be the safety valve over the middle of the field.

If either Ja’Marr Chase or Tee Higgins gets hurt this year, people will rush to pick up Andrei Iosivas. However, Mike Gesicki would stand to benefit more from the injury. Gesicki posted some monster numbers last year, particularly when Higgins missed action. However, unlike Iosvias, Gesicki was productive when the two receivers were healthy.
