2026NFL Fantasy Draft Kit — Sleepers & Busts

2026 · Half-PPR · DAEPA Monte Carlo vs. consensus ADP

BETA

This is where our model and the draft room disagree. We run a 1,000-season Monte Carlo simulation for every skill player — built on Defense-Adjusted EPA (DAEPA), multi-year usage and efficiency, and weekly injury modeling — then compare each player's projected positional rank to their consensus Average Draft Position (ADP). The gaps are the edges: sleepers the field is letting slide, and busts going off the board too early.

Read it as a draft-day cheat sheet: target the sleepers a round or two before their ADP, and let someone else reach for the busts. Refreshed monthly through the off-season as rosters and ADP move.
