Fantasy Football draft strategy 2025: Projected sleepers relative to ADP

SportsLine's Josh Nagel gives his 2025 Fantasy football top sleepers relative to average draft position

By@JoshNagel1Updated: Jul 31, 2025 6:17PM UTC . 1 min read

Most Fantasy football managers across all levels of experience and platforms would agree that "sleepers" will help you win your Fantasy leagues. In fact, they are integral to the cause. 

How you define the term is another matter. Generally speaking, a sleeper is a lower-round draft pick who unexpectedly provides massive production. For the purposes of this column, we are defining it as any player whose average draft position (ADP) falls outside the top 100 in the CBS Fantasy rankings.

In other words, these are players we believe can have a positive impact on your Fantasy season and can be found in the mid-eighth round or later in 12-team league drafts. For this exercise, we will use the CBS consensus rankings for full PPR leagues.
