  "account": "As fantasy football's waiver wire approaches, several players often garner significant attention. However, for some fantasy managers, these players are either unattainable or at the bottom of their waiver wire order. In such cases, there are still a few deep fantasy sleepers that others have overlooked. Here are three fantasy players who could soon become targets in fantasy waiver wire drafts.\n\nOne such player is Jonah Coleman, the rookie running back for the Denver Broncos. Following an injury to RJ Harvey in Week 2 and another loss of JK Dobbins early in the season, Coleman has come to the forefront. He played in 40% of snaps, scoring a touchdown and recording three receptions in Week 3. Despite suffering a high ankle sprain against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Coleman is nearing his return from the Injured Reserve. In ESPN fantasy leagues, he is currently owned by only 20.9% of teams.\n\nAnother player who could add value to fantasy lineups is Kendrick Bourne, the receiver for the Arizona Cardinals. With Marvin Harrison Jr. traded to the Houston Texans, the increased role for Michael Wilson and Trey McBride leaves an opening for another veteran player. Despite being a veteran, Bourne has proven his consistency in fantasy leagues. In the 2025 season, when Jauan Jennings and Ricky Pearsall missed games, Bourne stepped up and took on a significant role. In a span of two weeks, he recorded 15 receptions for 284 yards, ranking 4th in PPR fantasy formats. Currently, Bourne is owned by just 1.7% of teams in ESPN fantasy leagues.\n\nLastly, New England Patriots running back Corey Kiner could also be a valuable waiver wire addition. With key player TreVeyon Henderson sidelined due to a right ankle injury, and Rhamondre Stevenson possibly seeing reduced playing time, Kiner's chances of earning more playing time are increased. In a preseason game against the Raiders, Kiner showed promise with six carries for 52 yards. In four preseason games, he totaled 39 carries for 180 yards and two touchdowns. In ESPN fantasy leagues, Kiner is currently owned by only 0.1% of teams.",
