Who's yours?

I think Jordan Mason is going to have a big year....and that is going to positively impact the offense overall. 27 years old and a gently used, big bodied kid. He's going to end up being more of a workhorse than many fans think IMO.

Not just rookies, right?

This started in another thread by IceRatz and I thought it was worthy of it's own thread....================================Who's your sleeper Viking player this year?Mine is Big Citrus (almost went Max B)

Bredeson isn't really a sleeper, hes an unknown but he is going to be the starting Fullback/Flex tight end. He is going to get a ton of run even if he was a 5th round pick. As to sleeper - unknown that currently doesn't have a starter position - I think you have to look at the back end of the defense as there will be ample opportunity likely. I would say its 1 of Demmings, Jacob Thomas, or Jakobe Thomas. I think I lean towards Demmings as I think he could carve out a starting role. Jacob Thomas due to having a healthier offseason likely has the step up on Jakobe. I do have some slight hope that Jakobe could be our version of Bob Sanders.

I think you could pick many people, who are going to overachieve their expectations.

Turner:  I think Turner is going to take a strong step forward.  He’s already goodish, but I think he’s moving into elite territory this year.

Golday:  I think he’s clearly got low expectations as he’s got clear starters in front of him at every position he could get time at.  I think by the end of the year, someone will have gotten injured and he’ll have flashed enough to force himself into a starting position next year.

Bonus contrarian pick:  JJM.  Expectations for JJM are that he should be thrown into the sun.  Relative to those expectations, he’ll look surprisingly competent when he starts after Kyler gets injured sometime in late October or November.

I think Juan Jennings was a really under the radar signing that, Jefferson and Addison and Hock get all the attention, but no one talking about Jennings really. I think he ends up being a huge part of the offense.

On defense, I think Elijah Williams could end being the next Redmond in terms of coming out of no where and making an impact.

I think Elijah Williams is going to show up and show out.

Biggest Sleeper
