Sleeper #1: Hakeem Nicks - He made his presence felt last year although he was never really featured in the Giants passing game. Now one year older and one year better, he has a great chance to battle with Mario Manningham for the Giants 2nd receiver and really make an impact.
Sleeper #2: Jamaal Charles - He is battling this season with Thomas Jones for the Kansas City running back job and to be frank, he's dominating the fight. He will be the starting running back on a team that can't really pass, and he's quick as lighting. He will find the end zone over and over this year. Guaranteed.
Sleeper #3: Ahmad Bradshaw - He has had the misfortune of playing behind Brandon Jacobs for his career on the Giants but now it's his year. He is a homerun threat on every touch and will produce this year when he gets a fair share of the carries.
Sleeper #4: Chad Henne - Last year he threw for just under 3,000 yards, he only played in 13 games, and Brandon Marshall was in Denver. With 16 games and a big time number one receiver in Marshall he could put up huge numbers, IF he stays healthy while Marshall stays out of trouble. That is a pretty big IF though.
Sleeper #5: Devon Thomas - Devon Thomas' production is more about his quarterback than him. He will be a starting receiver for the Skins this year and with Donovan McNabb in town he is sure to put up numbers. McNabb has always torched defenses with small, crafty receivers and that's exactly what Thomas is. Steal him late and play him early.
