Next-level fantasy leagues. Compete with friends around the sports you care about. Sleeper makes fantasy leagues genuinely social. A sleeper pick in fantasy football is a player that is expected to be drafted in the later rounds of the draft but is predicted to perform better than expected. It is also anticipated that sleeper picks will generate more fantasy points than other players selected around the same time in the draft.
The term comes from owners 'sleeping' on a player by not picking them. The player may be returning from an injury, a rookie in his first year, or a player that not many people know of who is flying under the radar.
