High-upside sleeper with potential to overtake the lead role

Ian Hartitz highlights Jonathan Brooks as a high-upside sleeper, citing Dr. Jeff Mueller's assessment that his second ACL procedure is significantly stronger than the first. Currently ranked as RB36 with an ADP of 110 on Yahoo, Brooks is priced like a backup but has legitimate potential to overtake Chuba Hubbard for the lead role, as coach Dave Canales has shown a willingness to bench veterans for more productive options.
