In the year 2026, fantasy football sleepers are hard to find … if they even exist at all. We know the term is overused and not clearly defined, but “undervalued players” just doesn’t have the same ring. After all, do we consider a fifth-rounder with second-round upside a sleeper? Are players with double-digit round costs the only ones who qualify? Should the player have never previously posted a big season? Well, that’s the good thing about our staff sleepers — the staff was free to define it as they wished, so we have a nice variation within our collection of 2026 fantasy football sleepers, including three from me — a popular name, one closer to sleeper status, and another flier pick you shouldn’t overlook.QuarterbackMalik Willis, QB, MIAAfter everything we’ve learned regarding the importance of QB rushing floors, Willis still gets treated as an afterthought — yet he’s arguably the position’s best runner. What gives? Seventy percent of top-10 fantasy QBs over the past two years ran for over 20 yards per game. Check. And regardless of surrounding talent, Willis is a potentially far better passer than Justin Fields, who’s also a similar archetype and has gone off draft boards significantly earlier in years past. Willis ranked as fantasy’s QB6 over two weeks as a starter in 2025 despite having the 20th-most passing yards in that same timeframe. Sure, the sample is small, but the ceiling case is obvious, plus the cost is low. — John LaghezzaFantasy Football Draft Assistant
