Two Fantasy Football Sleepers at Every Position to Target in a 2026 PPR Draft

Fantasy football enthusiasts seeking late-round sleepers have a plethora of options available to them. While established stars often dominate the conversation, hidden gems can be found in the later rounds, offering both upside and a solid floor. Here are eight players to consider for a 2026 PPR draft at every position.

Quarterback Sleepers:

1. Malik Willis, Dolphins - Willis' rushing ability and consistent touchdown production make him an appealing late-round pick. His historical performance as a rushing QB suggests he could rank in the top-10 fantasy quarterbacks, with minimal risk.

2. Tyler Shough, Saints - Shough's rookie year demonstrated useful rushing ability, and entering his second year with an improved supporting cast, he could emerge as a QB1 candidate if he throws for at least 3,800 yards and reaches the mid-20s in touchdowns.

Running Back Sleepers:

1. J.K. Dobbins, Broncos - Despite a concerning injury history, Dobbins has shown efficiency when playing. His elite production on rushing yards per carry makes him an attractive RB34 as of now, with potential upside if he returns to full health.

2. Jonathon Brooks, Panthers - Though popular among fantasy football enthusiasts, Brooks remains a high-risk, high-reward selection due to his injuries and workload. With solid preseason play, he could emerge as a late-round steal if he maintains his form.

Wide Receiver Sleepers:

1. Parker Washington, Jaguars - Washington's late-season breakout performance has caught the attention of many fantasy analysts. With a fit for Jacksonville's offensive scheme and the potential to become Trevor Lawrence's primary target, Washington could be a WR2 or even a WR1 if he reaches 140 targets.

2. Michael Wilson, Cardinals - Wilson's elite production when playing, particularly against a dominant offense, makes him a risk but potentially rewarding pick. If he can replicate his performance once Marvin Harrison Jr. returns, Wilson could become a significant fantasy asset.
