Summary
Dave Richard’s sleeper list is LOADED 🔥
Wan’Dale Robinson, Malik Willis, Brandon Aiyuk, Jacoby Brissett & more headline this episode as we break down the biggest late-round values and overlooked players for the 2026 fantasy football season.
Which sleepers could crush their ADP, become weekly starters, and swing fantasy leagues this year?
We dive into the upside, opportunity, and risk for names that fantasy managers are sleeping on heading into draft season — including why Dave believes these players are set up to outperform expectations in a major way.
If you’re looking for late-round steals, breakout candidates, and undervalued veterans to target in your drafts, this episode is for you.

| 0:00.0 | Wake up, everyone. |
| 0:01.4 | It's time to talk about sleepers on Fantasy Football Today Express. |
| 0:09.6 | Okay, Dave has his updated list of sleepers. |
| 0:12.3 | Apparently, we just spoke about a number of them on the main show, Thursday show. |
| 0:17.6 | Good morning, Dave. |
| 0:19.0 | Give me some sleepers. |
| 0:20.5 | So the names that we talked about on the show, |
| 0:22.3 | highly encourage everybody going back to watch or listen to Thursday's show. Isaiah likely, |
| 0:28.0 | Travis Kelsey, Mark Andrews, Jonah Coleman, Jalen Naylor, Antonio Williams. We spoke their names. |
| 0:35.5 | They're on the sleeper list. But here are some that weren't spoken about on Thursday's show. |
| 0:39.8 | Let's start with the one that was spoken about earlier this week when we talked about |
| 0:43.6 | players that we would draft in the middle rounds. |
| 0:46.0 | And for me, it's Wondale Robinson. |
| 0:47.6 | Just love the opportunity for him to potentially lead the Titans and targets. |
| 0:51.3 | We've seen him average eight plus targets per game. In each of the |
| 0:56.1 | past two seasons, he is a Brian Daible guy. He was drafted in the NFL by Daible. And now he |
| 1:02.0 | followed Daible from New York to Tennessee. Cam Ward needs a short area option. This is somebody who can |
| 1:07.5 | do it. I don't love them in non-PPR. I only sort of like them in half-P-R. |
| 1:11.8 | But if we're getting a point per catch and Wondale Robinson's going to get eight targets per game, and I still think he will with Carnell Tate there, then he's absolutely somebody that I'm going to try and get in those middle to late rounds, in my full PPR leagues, might be starting them. Remember we were starting him as a number two wide receiver last year? |
| 1:29.2 | I don't know if we're going to start him as a number two wide receiver this year, but as a number three wide receiver, I think he can do that. So that's my first sleeper. Okay. Well, I know Robinson. I would say that's a lot of targets, eight targets per game. He's done it two years in a row. Yep. exactly 140 targets, which is a little bit more than eight per game, |
| 1:46.9 | I think. I don't know. I just don't see it. I just, my issue with him is I just don't think he's that good. He's fine. He's like a nice, fine, typical slot receiver. But if they didn't bring in Tate, yeah, but I don't know. For whatever reason, I just |
| 2:01.7 | don't see it. Now, last year you could say, look, Malik Neighbors got hurt. But the year before that, Malik Neighbors was mostly healthy. And Wondale still got 140 targets. So I could see, you know, that's encouraging. But that's why he's on my list. But eight targets a game is a lot. |
