QB Caleb Williams

While some managers will chase elite QBs like Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen as high as Round 2, there's value to be found in waiting at the position.

Managers looking for quarterback value should consider Chicago Bears signal-caller Caleb Williams. While there is a fair amount of hype surrounding Williams, a loaded Bears supporting cast and new head coach Ben Johnson, the second-year quarterback is still being undervalued.

With an average draft position of just 106, Williams isn't being valued as a starter in most leagues.

Now, targeting Williams as a starting QB does carry some risk-reward potential. Just remember that Jared Goff was QB6 under Johnson last season, and Williams brings more athleticism and scrambling ability to the proverbial table.

Jerome Ford, RB, Cleveland Browns

It's hard to know which running backs to take in the middle rounds, otherwise known as the "RB Dead Zone." A good strategy, though, is to target starters on bad teams who aren't generating early-round buzz.

Right now, Jerome Ford fits the mold. With an ADP of just 134, he's not even being valued as a legitimate NFL starter. This is probably because most managers expect the Cleveland Browns, at some point, to sign rookie second-round pick Quinshon Judkins.

Until that happens, though, Ford figures to be the starter that Kevin Stefanski trusts in both the running and the passing game. With Joe Flacco back under center, he should find far more running room than he did a year ago.

Two years ago, Ford finished as RB19. While he'll probably hold the highest value early in the season, he's a solid flex option worth a flier in Round 11 or 12.

Jalen Coker, WR, Carolina Panthers

Expect second-year wide receiver Jalen Coker to generate some late-round buzz in your fantasy draft. After the Carolina Panthers traded Adam Thielen to the Minnesota Vikings, Coker has moved up the depth chart and will likely see significant playing time as the third receiver later in the season.

On Saturday, the Panthers announced that they have placed Coker on injured reserve with a quad injury and signed Hunter Renfrow.

Now, there's a chance that Renfrow or rookie sixth-round pick Jimmy Horn Jr. run with the slot job and never relinquishes it. However, Coker will be eligible to return after four games, and he should quickly slot in next to Xavier Legette and rookie first-round pick  Tetairoa McMillan.

And with an ADP of 217 (but climbing), Coker is still undervalued. He tallied 32 catches for 478 yards and two touchdowns last season and may benefit from a third-year jump by quarterback Bryce Young.

Coker should still be considered a deep sleeper, but he's entirely worthy of a late-round selection.
