7 Last-Minute Sleepers | Fantasy Football Podcast 9-1-26 — Draft Sharks - Fantasy Football Podcast

Looking for some last-minute fantasy football sleepers? Matt Schauf and Jared Smola of DraftSharks.com break down their favorite late-round targets, including De’Zhaun Stribling, KC Concepcion, Jordan Mason, and some high-upside RB picks.

These are players you can target in the double-digit rounds of your fantasy football draft, and some might even be sitting on waivers if you’ve already drafted. We dig into which sleepers have the clearest paths to bigger roles, which RBs could explode with one injury, and why Tyjae Spears might be one of the biggest values in fantasy drafts right now.

We also explain how Upside Mode works in the Draft Sharks Draft War Room. As your draft moves into the later rounds, Upside Mode puts more weight on ceiling and helps identify the high-upside picks who can turn a good fantasy football draft into a league winner.
