-Sleepers of the day
Felix Jones - If you don't have HBO or you live in a hole you should know this guy is going to be a machine. The questions is when? Yes I know he is behind Barber but a guy with his talent will not sit on the bench. I expect him to get his fair share of carries and I expect he will break a few of these for touches. If he does this or if Barber goes down watch out. The cowboys have a great o-line and and great QB, if you can pick up Felix later in the draft he could come down as a total steal. Also remember to draft him as a backup if you also have Barber. In keeper leagues his value is even greater. Somebody will draft him so don't wait around forever. This guy will not be on the waiver wire.
Tony Scheffler - In his last 7 games Scheffler scored 3 Touchdowns. He had 5 on the season. A. Gates had 9, D. Clark had 11, K. Winslow had 5. What does this mean. It means you can afford to pass on a top TE and wait for a guy like Tony to drop down to you. He has the skills, the body and Jay Cutler is coming around which will only help him improve. Besides Brandon Marshall the broncos are hurting at WR and Tony looks to be the 2nd option in the passing game and the top red zone option. With the way the Broncos love to run the QB, Tony will be sitting there open more then a handful of time this season. He may not get a lot of yards, he averages around 50 a games however he is good for a touchdown about every other week and will get you enough points every week that the position wont kill your team. However if your 3WR has a bad week it will affect your team. If you can grab a better 3WR or even a 3RB before a TE and grab him late it may be the difference in you winning your league over time. Unless you really love Gates, Winslow or Clark , wait around and pick up Tony near the 8th or 9th round. Don't worry he will still be there. Another good option with similar stats is Owen Daniels from Houston. The one TE I would grab early would be Jason Witten. He is a hard worker on a great team and he will get the touchdowns that may propel him to a worthy high draft pick. Just be careful!
