I'm impressed with d-lineman Preston smith. Super strong and skilled at hand fighting to gain position and leverage. Reminds of cowboy and strahan with the kind of push and pressure he puts on opponent. Plays with the energy of Jared Allen. Not an explosive first step guy, but a guy with tremendous torque because of good technique, desire, and strength. He's gonna be that all-day sucker the o-line has to deal with--like the guys mentioned above. Heart.

Jalen Strong, He will get dinged for not having speed and separation skills, but will end up a very productive weapon.
Reminds me of how peeps viewed J.Matthews last year

Think, the thread title should be more like "day two/three sleeper"

Carl Davis DT. People sleep on him but he's looking like a legit 5-Tech, the kind that could replace Ray Mac.

Correct me If I'm wrong but isn't a sleeper an under the radar late round pick who will come out of nowhere and beast..? Like for instance last years sleeper you can say was martavious Bryant or Allen hurns and on defense Aaron lynch or maybe ej Gaines..idk a sleeper to me is a player that will be drafted 4th rd or later..

I agree with the poster who said Strong. I don't think he'll be the fastest guy out there but he was immensely productive at ASU. Very nice target for the late 1st round, early 2nd round. Personally I think he could fit pretty well up there with the Seahawks....

This. If your question is who's a sleeper to go in the first my pick is Quinton Rollins on defense and Devin Smith for offense
