Which Players Will be This Year's Sleepers?
We are only three months away from the beginning of the 2013 NFL season and while that fact alone will get a lot of fans very excited, the thought of fantasy football brings more people into it. There are always going to be those stud players that everyone wants or gets in the first round that will likely produce in a big way. I am looking for the sleepers to get when it is time for your 2013 draft. I think I have identified 10 players who you may be able to get after the fourth round that will help your team more than a higher pick.
The league is set up these days to a point where looking for wide receivers that can have a big season becomes a very important part of the draft preparation. I know that I have a few of these players on this list higher than I would some other stars just due to the team they are on or the opportunity that they are likely to get. It is always my favorite time of year getting ready for draft day. There will be people like myself who spend way too much time working on who they want to draft.
I’m hoping I can save you some time with these picks and you won’t have to work as hard for your own draft. There are mostly receivers in this list, but I have thrown in a few running backs and even a quarterback who could really help. It is an ever-changing world around fantasy football, along with who will be the studs and duds coming up this season. Here is my list of 10 fantasy football sleepers for the 2013 season.

1. WR Danny Amendola, New England Patriots
Amendola moves to a much better situation for his skills and should top 90 catches this coming season. I wouldn’t let him slip past the fourth or fifth round even with his injury history.
