Fantasy Football: Hayden Winks' favorite sleepers outside of the top 100 draft picks

Hitting on sleepers is the name of the game in fantasy football. Here are Hayden Winks' favorites outside of the top 100.

Fantasy football enthusiasts are looking for hidden gems outside the top 100 draft picks. In the NFL season of 2026, Jordan Love and Matthew Golden from the Packers are high on the list. The Packers' coaching staff prioritizes a more tempo-based style, which could increase the pass attempts for Love. MarShawn Lloyd, another target, has been drafted in only 10% of Yahoo drafts but offers strong running abilities and catching skills.

If an injury occurs to Christian Jacobs, Lloyd could become a reliable insurance option for fantasy teams. Raiders' Mike Washington Jr. and the Vikings' Jordan Addison also make the list. Washington, who is projected for a high number of points, could start in Week 1 if the starter is injured. Addison, despite being drafted low, has impressive NFL Combine stats and a strong connection with Kyler Murray, creating an explosive offensive duo.

Other notable sleepers include KC Concepcion, Makai Lemon, and De'Zhaun Stribling from the Browns, Eagles, and 49ers, respectively.
