Welcome to the latest edition of AMA Recap! We'll be summarizing our bi-weekly Discord AMAs as we approach the 2025 NFL season. This week, Footballguys Analyst Dave Kluge takes a look at some deep sleepers, the Jacksonville and Washington backfields, and yes, protein powders.
Sleeping In Late
3p1cfail: Hey Dave, who are your favorite late-round sleepers? I am looking around rounds thirteen and later.
Dave Kluge: If Keenan Allen is still there, I think that's an obvious one. There are several injury-prone running backs I like in that range, though: Will Shipley, Tahj Brooks, and Kyle Monangai. A bit deeper down the board, I really like Tory Horton—a hyper-athletic rookie wide receiver who already appears to have locked down a starting role in Seattle. For super deep sleepers (Round 18+), I like KaVontae Turpin and Olamide Zaccheaus.
Three's Company, Jacksonville's A Crowd
wingsofvoice: I saw you recommend Tank Bigbsy in one of your sleeper videos. Do you still feel like he is one to roster in that backfield, or has your opinion changed now with more information?
Dave Kluge: My take on the Jacksonville backfield changes pretty often. I'm really not sure what to make of it. I think Tank Bigsby is the best value, even better, he's going after Travis Etienne Jr.. I'm not really buying into the Bhayshul Tuten hype. Although last year, we saw Liam Coen's willingness to ride the hot hand. I think this one could end up being pretty frustrating.
Draft Order Preference
HurlBruce: We’re picking draft slots, and I’m one pick away. 7-10 are open. Rank those for a standard scoring league please.
Dave Kluge: In order, 7, 8, 9, 10. If you get 7, you're getting one of Justin Jefferson or Christian McCaffrey.
