10 Fantasy Football Players To Grab in the Late Rounds (Sponsored by DraftKings)


The top players are going to get drafted in every league early. Experienced NFL Fantasy Football owners know that bragging rights are won and lost in the late rounds.

In the fantasy football, injuries and bye weeks are inevitable for every owner throughout a long season. NTXGAME and DraftKings have teamed up to give you the right GM touch you need to build a winning roster.

 


 Markus Wheaton - WR

While Martavis Bryant is getting all the attention in the pass-happy Steelers offense, people are going to overlook his counterpart on the other side Markus Wheaton. He has really come on this offseason and has the speed to take the top off any secondary.



Virgil Green - TE

Owen Daniels' big fantasy numbers are a thing of the past due to injuries. Virgil Green is his backup in Denver and we all know Peyton Manning will throw to sure handed reciever  in any situation.

Jameis Winston - QB

Normally, you can not trust a rookie QB, but Winston has ran for a TD in every preseason game thus far. He may not be as accurate, but once teams start to game plan to keep him in the pocket the passing attack of the Bucs will get better.



Richard Rogers - TE

With the injury to Jordy Nelson, Aaron Rodgers will have to spread the ball around to the TE more. Rodgers is fantasy gold and you have to have one of his targets on your team.

Ty Montgomery - WR

This rookie WR for the Green Bay Packers has been penciled in as the replacement WR for Jordy Nelson. That is enough for you to take a flyer on him.

Willie Snead - WR

When the New Orleans Saints go to a three-wideout set, chances are Willie Snead will be the third guy. The Saints have elevated him above Nick Toon because of his stellar training camp and preseason play. Drew Brees has built some trust in him.

Eddie Royal - WR

You may not like Jay Cutler, but he has quickly fallen for new WR Eddie Royal. If the chemistry gets to Cutler-Marshall levels then consider this a steal.



Teddy Bridgewater - QB

If he is available late, take him. He could win a you a matchup during your starting QBs bye week. He has a goal to have a 70% completion rate this season.

David Cobb - RB

Cobb will not fly under the radar any longer once he is named the starter in Tennessee. If your league drafts before the end of preseason, then many of your fellow owners will not have a clue on this guy.



Allen Robinson - WR

If speed kills then consider Allen Robinson to be Agent 47, He could be feast or famine in the Jags offense, but a good WR3 when facing a favorable defense.



Bonus: Pick Up Another Defense/ST

This strategy has always worked for me. The ability to change a defense against a weak offense can win you more games than you think.
