Dynasty Draft Sleepers: Juwan Johnson, Jerome Ford, Romeo Doubs (2023 Fantasy Football)

The 2023 NFL season is still several weeks away. However, July is arguably the best time of the year for fantasy players. The Scott Fish Bowl is in full swing, and it’s the perfect time for a new dynasty league. Let’s dive into some dynasty fantasy football draft values. We’ll go round-by-round to identify the top values to consider at each pick.

While there are several strategies you can use during startup drafts, finding the best value in every round is critical regardless of which you deploy. So let’s look at the best late value in each rounds in a 12-team, 1QB, half-point PPR startup dynasty draft.

Round 14 – Juwan Johnson (TE – NO)

Johnson had a breakout year in 2022. The veteran finished third in the league among tight ends with seven receiving touchdowns. The only two tight ends with more touchdowns than Johnson last year were Travis Kelce and George Kittle. While New Orleans recently signed Foster Moreau, the veteran won’t have much fantasy impact. Meanwhile, Michael Thomas is arguably the most prone wide receiver in the NFL, missing 80 percent of the contests over the past three years. Johnson will be the No. 2 pass catcher this year behind Chris Olave if Thomas can’t stay healthy. The veteran has top-five upside this season after finishing last year as the TE11.

Round 15 – Romeo Doubs (WR – GB)

Last year Doubs was a popular sleeper candidate after his impressive performance in training camp and preseason. However, the rookie ended the season as only the WR76, averaging 6.2 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. When the Packers traded away Aaron Rodgers this offseason, the fantasy community got turned off by Green Bays’ receiving core outside of Christian Watson. Yet, Doubs’ fantasy value is on the rise. Reportedly he has been Jordan Love’s go-to guy during offseason workouts. More importantly, head coach Matt LaFleur recently praised the young receiver, saying he is taking the “next step.” While he won’t take over as the Packers’ No. 1 wide receiver, Doubs is a steal at his current ADP.

Round 16 – Jerome Ford (RB – CLE)

The Browns decided against re-signing Kareem Hunt this offseason. Furthermore, D’Ernest Johnson signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars this offseason, eliminating any competition for Ford as the No. 2 running back. Unfortunately, the second-year player had a limited role on offense as a rookie. However, the former Cincinnati Bearcat had 1,500 scrimmage yards and an 8.5 percent touchdown rate in his final college season. Meanwhile, Nick Chubb has missed 14 percent of the games over the past three years because of injury. If he gets a chance to start for Chubb, fantasy players will get massive performances from Ford.
