QB Jamie Martin, Rams
Can't make a sleeper list without including a few players. One of them is the Back up QB for the Rams, doesn't even matter who it is.
At this point it's Martin, and to be honest, he's not all that good. Doesn't matter, if Warner goes down, Martin will be given the keys to drive the best Offensive Machine in the History of the NFL. If you have Warner, you better have this guy. If you can find room for him, you just have to concider picking him up.

Not really sure he can be called a Sleeper anymore as he's getting some good PR lately.
TE Randy McMicheal, Dolphins. 6'3", 247, 4.82 Georgia
One of the few players in College to be awarded two red shirt years by the NCAA. Decent College numbers. Suspended at one point for Bar Room Brawling (I just seem to like that about a guy for some reason ). Won All-SEC Confernce Honors for the top TE, but to be honest, only had the one big game against Tennesse for 6 catches and just over 100 yards. There weren't really any talented SEC TE's last season, so don't put too much stock in his All Conference Selection.
Catches the Ball well, with nice natural hands. Adjusts well to a poorly thrown ball. Not a good Blocker, he just doesn't like to do it. He can be a good blocker, and has shown the skills, but he doesn't really revel in it, so most often does a poor job. Not a protype size or strength for a TE. Although that Highlight tonight on SportsCenter will lead you to believe otherwise, he lacks great running ability after the catch. Doesn't have the speed to break a big one, and infact, broke no long gains in College after catching the ball.
However, the Norv Turner Offense makes a TE a stud, and Everywhere you look and hear, Randy is the guy that they are going with, so by default, he will put up good numbers.
I read a quote from Turner just yesterday or the day before where he said McMicheal has more ability and talent in his assesment than Fredie Jones. Turner is off his Rocker with that comment, but if he wants to believe it, who am I to argue with a proven NFL Coach? He's wrong, but I'll just turn a blind eye, and accept what he is saying at this point.
Normally, I wouldn't touch the guy as at best he is an H-Back type who needs to be somewhere like Denver, but everything in the world says that Turner is high on the guy, and that he will be given every opertunity to suceed. Historicaly, Norv Turners Offense features a scoring TE. I say he puts up good numbers for a TE this season.
