Fantasy sleepers, busts, and best players.

by kujo24 on Jul 23, 2008 7:36 PM EDT

I'm about to have a draft in my league and I'd like to have a few more opinions before I take my players. So, I want to know, who will be the best sleeper (a player who's underrated, will be picked low, and have a terrific season compared to last.) Who do you think will be the best RB. And who will be a bust (a player who is overrated and won't do anywhere as good as last season).

So please post who will fit all three of these catagories.

I have to go with LT in the 1st. Peterson was great last year, but it’s tougher the second year when they see you comming. (Jones-Drew excluded) But LT is still the best and has been for some time.
As far as the overated bust… I might (loosly) have the say Mr. Current Event himself, Brett Favre, where ever he ends up. If he starts for an AFC team, then say goodbye to Favre. Those AFC defenses are much better competition than those NFC D’s he’s used to facing.

MJD!

Not only do you get his rushing yards but his return yards and receiving yards. Or at least in the old rotisserie style fantasy league.

I think

Adrian Peterson will be bust next year. Or at least there is a good possiblity that he will be. Chester Taylor is still a good RB so he’ll be stealing carries. Everytime AP has the ball, defenses key in on him. Also there is the problem with him getting hurt all the time. Not to mention he is still lacking as a blocker, minimizing his touches on 3rd down. Unless Tavaris starts to throw down field, he will always see 8 men in the box.
