4 Fantasy Football Sleepers to Draft (2025)

It’s important to know who to target late in fantasy football drafts as sleepers for the season. These players can return great value on their average draft position (ADP). Here are some of our favorite fantasy football sleepers to target later in your drafts.

Fantasy Football Sleepers to Draft

Here are a few of our favorite fantasy football sleepers to draft in the final rounds.

Round 10

Rashod Bateman (WR – BAL)

When we get to this stage in best ball drafts, it can quite often be as simple as trying to draft players from the best offenses, and last year, Rashod Bateman was an integral part of the best offense in football. Bateman had his best year of his career with 756 yards and eight touchdowns. The Ravens only offensive addition this offseason was DeAndre Hopkins, who signed a modest deal, reflecting the fact that he’ll turn 33 this Summer and is firmly on the back nine of his career.

Round 11

Javonte Williams (RB – DAL)

There are caveats to this pick, and they shouldn’t come as a shock, but if Javonte Williams can stay healthy this year, then he has the best opportunity he’s had in a while to be relevant. Williams has played in 33 games over the last two seasons, and while his effectiveness hasn’t always been there, he still had eight games over 50 scrimmage yards last season. The Cowboys seem convinced that they can enter the season with only Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders in their running back room, and if Williams is healthy, volume alone might pay off this pick. Disgusting as it may be.

Round 12

Tucker Kraft (TE – GB)

This time last year people assumed Luke Musgrave was firmly entrenched as the Packers TE1, but those of us in the Tucker Kraft hive could point towards Kraft doing more when he was given opportunities in 2023 and that continued in 2024 with Kraft now firmly assumed as the TE1 on the back of almost 700 yards and seven touchdowns. Only George Kittle (8) and Mark Andrews (10) had more touchdowns. The Packers receiving room isn’t a fun one to try and decipher, but the tight end room is much more straightforward with all signs pointing to Kraft.

Round 13

Joshua Palmer (WR – BUF)

The Bills didn’t make many additions to the offense this offseason, but they did bring in Joshua Palmer during free agency, and it could end up being one of the better value moves. The Bills were a top-three offense in many metrics, including offensive DVOA and points scored per game, but they still felt like they needed a reliable pair of hands with Amari Cooper moving on. As Dbro pointed out recently, last year the Bills faced the highest percentage of man coverage (34.9%) and none of their wide receivers had above 0.104 separation or a route win rate above 21.7% against man coverage, but last year Palmer against man coverage ranked sixth in separation and 5th in route win rate (per FantasyPoints.com). If nothing else, this continues the mantra of drafting players on good offenses, and that shouldn’t be something we shy away from.
