the sleeper QB is Jake Delhomme. I thought he'd be higher ranked this year, but he's regularly going in the 7-9 rounds (in 12 team drafts).
He will outperform Mcnabb, Vick, Culpepper - all of whom are being drafted before him.
A deeper sleeper is Drew Brees. He has more WR talent this year in NO than he ever had in SD. Plus, once Bush gets into the mix, watchout. It also helps that NO's D sucks, and they will constantly be playing catch-up.(which means throwing the ball)

Since Marc Bulger tends to get overlooked whenever there are comparisons as to who the best quarterback in the league is, I guess he can be considered a sleeper. People tend to forget that he was the MVP of the Pro Bowl a couple of years ago by throwing four touchdowns in the second half to bring the NFC roaring back and overtake the AFC in a thrilling high scoring game. If you look at his stats, he is currently the 6th highest rated quarterback in the HISTORY of the game! I still don't understand how he isn't mentioned as one of the top 4 or 5 QB's in the game. You watch, with a new coach, offensive philosophy and a more dedicated approach to the ground game to set up the pass for Bulger to throw to either Torry Holt, Isaac Bruce, Kevin Curtis, Shawn McDonald, Steven Jackson, Joe Klopfenstein, Dominique Byrd, Dane Looker and any other running back coming out of the backfield, Bulger is going to tear it up this year!

If he can stay healthy, I think Steve McNair could finish in the top 8 this season.
He's getting hooked back up with his fave WR, he has a quality TE, a passing target he has always used liberally, and the RB situation in Baltimore is looking pretty weak. Remember the kind of half-season Delhomme had 2 years ago when their RB situation totally blew up? That's what McNair could be looking at.
He'll be someone I'll be keying on as a backup in my draft, mainly because I really believe this, and he'll probably still be hanging around towards the end of the draft, giving me room to shore up other bench slots.

I think whoever wins the job in Detroit, Kitna or McCown could be a huge fantasy sleeper. Plus you could get them in the late rounds. Watch out for Detroit's offense with Martz and all of the weapons they have stockpiled. I will be watching to see who wins the job in training camp and will try to draft one of them in the last 3 rounds or so. It's worth a shot.

Sleeper is a non top 10
Brooks would be the guy! He is the back up with the most upside.
Culpepper may be a sleeper.

Jon Kitna because he will be throwing the ball a ton with Mike Martz as the offensive coordinater, plus he has 3 first round wide recievers and a solid TE.

Kurt Warner most people will pickup Matt Lienart and forget that warner is the starter. He has plenty of weapons at WR and now a feature pro bowl TE.

I think you have to go with Culppepper if he's healthy - guy is now throwing to Chriss chambers and R Mcmichael - much superior WRs thzn he had last yr in Minn AND the dolphins can run the ball...
