Best Sleepers in the 2022 NFL Draft that the Saints should target.
So how are we defining sleepers?
I tend to think a true sleeper is a prospect you think can be a good starter in their career who is not often, if at all, projected to go in the first three rounds. However, some of the guys I have seen listed as sleepers are just guys that people feel are undrrated or projected to go lower than they think their value is.
Woods is one of these.. he is my third favorite TE, and I think there will be lots of players drafted before him who should not be, so underrated, but I fully expect him to be gone by the close of the 3rd round, so not really a sleeper.
I will use Bernhard Raimann as another example. I think he is on par or better as a prospect at LT than Cross or Ekwonu. (I think Neal and Penning are RT prospects only) Yet he is mocked from the late first to the mid/late 2nd round. Underrated in my mind, but not what I would call a sleeper.
Also at LT though guys like Dare Rosenthal, Matt Waletzko, Vederian Lowe, or Max Mitchell could all qualify as round 4+ picks with starter potential. They are my "sleeper" LT picks.
