A tilt toward passing around the NFL puts plenty of quarterbacks on the fantasy radar, from standard leagues to two-quarterback leagues to daily fantasy play. For the 2016 season, here are five deep sleeper quarterbacks right now.
5. Geno Smith, New York Jets
Getty ImagesSmith's place on this list assumes the Jets remain at an impasse with Ryan Fitzpatrick, and even if that changes playing time could still come. If he does make starts, two top-level wide receivers and running ability will make Smith fantasy relevant.
4. Chase Daniel, Philadelphia Eagles
Getty ImagesSam Bradford may be the Eagles' starting quarterback right now, but his performance and health can't be assumed. Daniel followed new head coach Doug Pederson to Philadelphia from Kansas City, so he should have a good grasp of the offense.
3. Blaine Gabbert, San Francisco 49ers
Getty ImagesGabbert had over 250 passing yards in four of his eight games last season, with at least one touchdown pass in all eight contests. 49ers' head coach Chip Kelly got a career season out of Nick Foles in 2013, and Gabbert could follow a similar path.
2. Marcus Mariota, Tennessee Titans
Getty ImagesMariota stretches the definition of a fantasy sleeper, but after missing four games as a rookie with expected inconsistency there's room for improvement. Better line play and more running puts Mariota in line to make a solid fantasy impact this year.
1. Robert Griffin III, Cleveland Browns
Getty ImagesIt's been a long, strange trip for Griffin. So much so that the Browns look like a nice landing spot under new head coach Hue Jackson, and with good health the 2012 Offensive Rookie of the Year could have a fantasy renaissance in 2016.
