Video: 12 WR Sleepers You SHOULD Be Drafting AFTER Pick 75 - Fantasy Football 2026
Josh DS as the maybe he's the number one receiver in this offense... Michael Pitman out of here with his 20% target share those got to be spread around somewhere... Josh DS on the field a little bit more uh in those two wide receiver sets... 75 to 80% range... solid wide receiver three this season... Josh Downs is tied with JSN actually over the last three seasons. Wide receiver 20 in targets per route run at 25%... You can get him in the eighth and ninth rounds of fantasy football drafts on FFPC. And quite frankly, I mean, uh on Sleeper, he's an 11th round pick.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Route share bump to 75-80%; WR20 in TPRR; 8th-9th round value.

Deep sleeper WR with elevated role after Michael Pittman trade; expected to move from 60-65% route share to 75-80% full-time role, providing stability and breakout upside. Pittman's 20% target share will redistribute to Downs and Tyler Warren. Alec Pierce's ankle injury (PUP list, late-March surgery, 4-6 month recovery) creates additional upside if Pierce misses time or regresses early season. Downs is tied with JSN at WR20 in targets per route run (25%) over last three seasons; per-route metrics look great despite August ankle injury slowing him down. Source notes Downs is buried in standard ADP but much higher in sharper formats (FFPC), suggesting market inefficiency. Can be drafted in eighth-ninth rounds on FFPC or 11th round on Sleeper, much cheaper than Tyler Warren (third round). Source conviction: "solid wide receiver three this season... does have like that touch of upside here if if Alec Pierce if that ankle injury kind of hinders him all season... give me some Josh Downs as a later pick as a a potential breakout."
