  "account": "Fantasy Football Sleepers 2026: Keaton Mitchell, Jaydon Blue Among Rotoworld Picks\n\nFantasy football enthusiasts will find themselves eagerly awaiting the 2026 season to see how certain players perform. Rotoworld has released their list of sleepers, featuring a mix of well-known names and hidden gems. Here are some notable picks:\n\n1. Keaton Mitchell, RB, Chargers\nDraft analysts are excited about Mitchell's potential as a sleeper. Known for his explosive production, Mitchell had a career-high 6.8 yards per touch with 140 touches in 2023. With a new coach, Mike McDaniel, who values both running and passing skills, there's a chance for Mitchell to see increased involvement in the passing game, making him a valuable asset in PPR leagues.\n\n2. Jaydon Blue, RB, Cowboys\nBlue's stock has taken a hit following last season, but his background and the Cowboys' need for a strong third-down back remain compelling reasons for fantasy managers to consider him. With a new coaching staff and Brian Schottenheimer vouching for his abilities, there's hope that Blue could become a PPR secret weapon, particularly in the Cowboys' pass-heavy system.",
