Fantasy Football Week 1 Projections: Sleepers

Sometimes you need a fantasy gem to be successful. Here is a list of LestersLegends’ under-the-radar players that could possibly pull out a win for you in Week 1.

Alex Smith, QB, San Francisco 49ers vs. Seattle:  Look, I don’t have the guts to use him, let alone roster him, but Seattle did have a horrible pass defense last year.

Colt McCoy, QB, Cleveland Browns vs. Cincinnati:  It feels weird endorsing a Browns quarterback, but Cincinnati is just that bad.

Willis McGahee, RB, Denver Broncos vs. Oakland:  John Fox has utilized the two-headed monster at RB as good as anybody in the league. McGahee should give the Broncos the tough yards and take the carries inside the ten.

Mike Tolbert, RB, San Diego Chargers vs. Minnesota:  This feels like a game that you let Tolbert mop up after Rivers does the damage.

Plaxico Burress, WR, New York Jets vs. Dallas:  I’m not sold on the Cowboys’ secondary and Burress’ size could be too much for Dallas to handle in the red zone.

Greg Little, WR, Cleveland Browns vs. Cincinnati:  He may be green, but he’s definitely an athlete. He could put up solid numbers against Cincinnati.

Kyle Rudolph, TE, Minnesota Vikings at San Diego:  Shiancoe has been banged up. Don’t be surprised if McNabb targets Rudolph plenty.

San Francisco 49ers DST vs. Seattle:  I wouldn’t be surprised if a QB switch was made in this game. Tarvaris Jackson has not taken advantage of his opportunity thus far.
