Panthers' 2015 Fantasy sleepers

I play fantasy football with friends internet buds across the country and it's great having a leg up on Carolina's talent. WR1 numbers from KB were a given in my mind and I won my league in large part last season due to "reaching" for him in the 4th round. Who do you think are the team's sleepers next season?

I don't see him going in the first round in many leagues but I can say with confidence that healthy Jstew is a top 10 back. My heart says top 5. My only reservation is that he has to be handcuffed and I don't know whether Fozzy or CAP are the better move there.

I think it's also safe to say that KB is the only receiver that will be on anyone's radar so someone is gonna outperform their projections between Funch, Brown, and Ginn. Brown could very well go undrafted in a league without Panther fans, Ginn might have a big year reuniting with Cam, and Funch is a true wildcard with a ceiling as high as KB's depending on how things turn out.

If by "sleeper" you are referring to someone that is going very late in drafts but has the potential to be a fantasy starter, I don't think there really are any on the Panthers roster this year going by current ADP and pundit rankings. I don't think KB, Funchess, and Olsen can all be fantasy-relevant most weeks in our offense, so I can't really peg Funchess as a true sleeper candidate. That implies that I don't think Ginn or Brown will become guys that I would consider starting every week. I think KB and Olsen seem to be going where they should be in terms of ADP and rankings. I have KB as my #12 receiver so I'm a little higher on him than most.

All that being said, is Funchess potentially being under-drafted without being a "sleeper," meaning he should be drafted higher but doesn't necessarily have starter potential? Maybe.

I don't see Stew as a top 12 back. I have him ranked 16th for a PPR league that consumes way too much of my time. And I often think that's too generous. Some other guys will probably rise above him before the start of the season for me. I wouldn't peg his handcuffs as sleepers either. Just your average RB handcuffs.

      Not in same league. Caldwell just hit a 10.00 on the RAS. 2nd out of 3830 from 1987 onward.  https://x.com/MathBomb/status/2027885023387349047 Yeah I mean Louis had a sub 9.00 RAS. Still very very good, no doubt. Louis is small, no 2 ways about it. He is likely a sub package lb in nickel packages or specialized WLB. Be fine ST gunner to start for sure. 6 foot flat and 220lb is pushing it for a starting LB. At 10 to 20lbs less than the other LBs he'd better be closer to the top in most timed drills. He's gonna be challenged when some of the wrs in the class can matchup bigger stronger faster, much less TE in the run game.  Yeah instinct matter and he has them, but that size is a massive red flag compared to many of the other LBS in this class.    Rodriguez is the LB that really climbed this week from a pure grit guy to great flash with athleticism people wrote off cause he was a QB at first at UVA. 18.4mph in the backpedal. Production the last 2 years were great. I'd be thrilled with him as the future mike.   Hill likely moved out of 51 and into the top 45 picks ( Ravens at 45 I can't imagine don't bite if he makes it there). Honestly Hill imo is a 1st rounder and I'd be ok with him as he fits the MLB we have missed the last few years. People would crow it's a reach but he's top 30 all-time I'm RAS for a LB at 9.9+ . Plus he was big time in big games when he was healthy. And that br a big check: meds.

      Miller, Melo, Coby, Moose, and Bridges all on the floor at the same time must be a nightmare for defenses lol. Switch one out for Kon and still a nightmare. Coby really does bring a true 6th man value and looks like he could start if Melo was out after only a few games of getting his feet wet.
