6 Sleepers To Aim For Your Dynasty 2022 Debut Compilations (2023)

Sleepers to Target in 2022 Dynasty Rookie Drafts

Keaontay Ingram, RB, USC

When it comes to the sleeper, you really need to assess perspective quite differently. Most of the time, there will be a litany of reasons why you will fail, but focusing on how and why you will fail will make all the difference. Keaontay Ingram was Devy's favorite freshman at Texas for two seasons of encouraging production. Ingram started his sophomore season only to be demoted by Bijan Robinson, which isn't a knock on Ingram. Ingram has never been as gifted or talented as Robinson, instead Ingram is in his senior year at USC and has picked for over 1,100 yards and 22 receptions.

So, Ingram has proven to be productive when given the opportunity, but the focus of the sale is Ingram's athleticism. Ingram posted a 105th percentile speed score, a 57th percentile series score, adding a 220-pound, 6-foot-tall frame. Ingram's path to relevance is that he has posted productive seasons, he has the size of a workhorse and the speed required. They have plenty of runners you can throw darts at, but Ingram is the right match for me, which I prioritize as one of my main feeders.

Jashaun Corbin, RB, Stan Floryda

One player who doesn't get enough attention in this class is Florida State Jashaun Corbin. At this year's NFL Combine, he stood at 5'11", 202 pounds. He is a former top-20 recruit who earned All-SEC honors at Texas A&M as a freshman for his special-teams work. Last season, led the ACC in yards per gain with a 6.20-yard average Also tied the high school single-season record for two touchdown rushes for 75 yards in a single season Has a career total of 60 receptions for over 300 yards, as well as 25 receptions in 2021 for the Seminoles. Helping show us that he can be a weapon in the passing game as well. I expect Corbin to drop to a later round in the draft, but I think his versatility will make him a solid role.

Pierre Strong, RB, Dakota del Sur

The NFL is a league of copycats and life is a matter of time. Fortunately for Pierre Strong Jr. his timing couldn't have been better for his entry into the NFL. The teams will watch the 49ers get Elijah Mitchell in the sixth inning and tell each other that Strong could be the next Mitchell.

When Elijah Mitchell was selected in the sixth round, many people felt he was a better fit for Shanahan's offense than his third-round pick, Trey Sermon. Kazan has been battling injuries, and before you knew it, Elijah Mitchell was pounding NFL defenses with his quick zonal jumps and his elite speed.

→Pierre Strong's Player Page

Pierre Strong is just about the perfect partner for Mitchell. Strong is slightly bigger at 5'11 and 205 pounds, while Mitchell was listed at 5'10 and 200 pounds and both can fly. Both defenders were running under 4.4 forty at the combine. Both Strong and Mitchell also played NCAA high schools in South Dakota for Pierre and the University of Louisiana for Elijah.

I want to take Strong in the early round 3 rookie dynasty draft, after 40 he can start climbing the rookie tables. If his leaguemates don't know about Pierre Strong's talents, it's possible he could land a RB study for a low-cost pick in Round 3 of 2022.

Teams that watched Mitchell last year will see similar traits in Strong, and he could beat draft capital Elijah Mitchell in the sixth round by a round or two, so Strong might not sleep for long. Just remember the name Pierre Strong for your dynasty novices, keep it in your back pocket. Strong may be called up to the next NFL Day 3 to run from behind for his Dynasty team.

Jalen Tolbert, WR, South Alabama

Jalen Tolbert enters the NFL Draft after passing for 1,000 consecutive yards and eight touchdown seasons at South Alabama. Tolbert is the first receiver in South Alabama history to surpass 1,000 receiving yards in a season, and he has done it twice. He topped 100 receiving yards in seven games in 2021, including seven receptions for 143 yards and a touchdown against Tennessee. tolbertotriedwell in the combine and is a good size at over six feet tall. He has a lot of playability and should be off the grid come Day 2 or early Day 3. Keep an eye on where Tolbert lands in April.

Wan'Dale Robinson, WR, Kentucky

Wan'Dale Robinson matches many before him, including De'Anthony Thomas, Tarik Cohen and Tavon Austin. All of these players were absolutely electric in college, but concerns about size overshadowed their projections as professionals.

NameHeightLibra40 yard dashVerticalLong jump
robinson5'8"1784.4434”9'10"
tomasz5'9"1744,5032”10'4"
Cohen5'6"1794.4231,5”9'10"
austina5'8"1744.3432”10'0”

If you're rejecting Wan'Dale because of his combination of height and weight, I get it. This kind of experimentation has been uninspiring in the past. But I think this timecouldbe different.

  • The NFL is moving more than ever in the direction of "get this guy up in space and let him go to work." Then your landing spot will be crucial. His 1 season at Kentucky showed that compared to his 2 years at Nebraska.
    • Total 1,494 yards (914 regular and 580 operational) from 7 tank destroyers at Nebraska. Total 1,445 yards (1,334 regular and 111 operational) from 7 tank destroyers in Kentucky.
  • He mostly switched to WR at Kentucky and showed he could handle it. 100+ SEC admissions are no joke.
→Wan'Dale Robinson's Player Page

Starting with how he wins and what his role is. It will be a WR car with perfectly safe possibilities for movement, jet sweep and potentially true RB driving. He really excels in short runs: quick putouts, screens, curls when he gets a big pillow (see vs LOU). He's great with the ball in his hands and absolutely doesn't let his #YAC game get lost. He has many records that show he can also gain depth with deep cross/top routes, and can compete against pressures on go/fades routes (see MIZZ vs. IOWA vs.). Despite his size, he is tough. He took a few shots of the hospital ball and fell behind, but persevered to finish those games.

The areas it struggles with relate to its size. He doesn't win contestable catches thanks to his 5'7" wingspan (wow), and on the rare occasions he's come out against the press, he's hit or miss with his flurry of shots. His hands aren't strength. I've only seen a drop in games I've seen but most of the time he hits with the body.Also he had a tendency to fish deep with no contact to secure a catch when he should have stayed on his feet.While he handles the ball well in his hands, hands on him slow him down at best and possibly knock him out.

His ideal landing spot is a creative quarterback who struggled to get drafted later on the second day (like Amari Rodgers). This team will have a vacancy and need a low ADOT player. Santos could be a potential candidate. They need help with WR and team speed. Also, given the legal trouble Kamara is facing, Wan'Dale can be insurance with his RB experience while at Nebraska. He thinks he's absolutely someone to target, as he finishes in the second round of the PPR Rookie Scoring Dynasty draft as he enters his season at age 21. But if you think you're buying Diet Deebo or Tyreek Lite, you're letting yourself down.

Kevin Harris, RB, South Carolina

Kevin Harris had an extremely productive sophomore season prior to offseason back surgery. He has shown that he can be a workhorse that dominates between attacks and at close range. He averaged nearly two yards per team play and was responsible for 55.1 percent of his team's offensive touchdowns. Harris is a perfect height 5-10, 221 pounds with an 89th percentile explosion (PlayerProfiler.com) and a vision to find open belts. While his passing game needs some work, Harris projects as a two-shot bruise at a higher level. He's big and powerful, and he's got enough juice to crash parties from time to time.

In the initial startup draft, now more than ever, your focus should be on wide receivers.
