PodcastThe BEST Fantasy Football Sleepers to Target in 2026 Drafts: Mid-Round Steals,...August 12, 2026

From the episode

Jonathan Brooks, real time ADP is RB 33, 90 second overall... I'm willing to take him as high as round six, like in any different format, because he can pay off of that price.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalSleeper

Jonathan Brooks is a fully healthy, high-upside rookie poised for a lead role.

Jonathan Brooks is a high-upside target in the 6th-7th round. Despite Chuba Hubbard's presence, Brooks is the more talented back and is fully recovered from his ACL injury (21 months post-surgery). The Panthers have explicitly stated their intent to use him in passing-down roles, making him a potential top-20 back by Week 4.
