Training camps are in session, and deep dynasty sleepers are emerging. Focusing on reps with the first team is crucial in identifying players who have the potential to emerge, especially with expanded rosters. Most dynasty leagues feature deep benches and young players who earn consistent playing time hold value. Here are 25 NFC deep dynasty sleepers who have earned their way onto 2024 fantasy football radars.

During this crucial period, when the waiver wires in these deep formats are most active, Footballguys is your go-to source with our comprehensive "What You Need To Know From Every Team This Week" feature. This high-level summary, coupled with our in-depth team reports on all 32 teams, ensures you are well-prepared for the upcoming season. 

To supplement this coverage, the Footballguys Dynasty Show hosted @32BeatWriters, a site dedicated to accumulating relevant information from beat writers across the league. 

These players cover a broad spectrum, from players rostered in almost any Dynasty league to players who merit consideration on watch lists. Deep dynasty sleepers can provide significant value to your team, either as immediate contributors or as players with high upside for the future. 

RB Dante Miller, NY Giants

Tyrone Tracy has earned status as a sleeper with his camp performance. Tracy is on very few waiver wires. Eric Gray was on the 2023 rookie radar and ran well when given the opportunity. But Miller has earned every step as an undrafted free agent. Miller's story is strange; he spent most of his career at Columbia before transferring to South Carolina. Miller attempted to enter the 2024 draft before learning he should have been in the 2023 class. He signed with the Giants after running a sub 4.3 for scouts and earning the nickname "Turbo" in New York, where he worked his way into reps with the first-team offense. Miller is a very deep name, but this backfield is unsettled.

WR Johnny Wilson, Philadelphia

Recent roster projections have the Eagles very light on skill talent, with potentially as few as five wide receivers making the final roster. One of those is return specialist Britain Covey. Covey has six total targets in 33 career games. The other receivers are likely John Ross (yes, that John Ross) and Parris Campbell (currently sidelined with a groin, so yes, that Parris Campbell). Wilson has a stranglehold on the WR3 job at this point. The new offensive coordinator, Kellen Moore, rarely incorporates two tight end sets, so this may be a full-time snap share for Wilson. Wilson has been a star in camp and pulled far ahead of the competition. He is unlikely to see high volume given the other options, but his rare 6-foot-6 frame can allow him to be an immediate red-zone threat. He is a must-add player in deep leagues. 

RB Kendall Milton, Philadelphia

Milton was a surprise after going undrafted. It's likely the product of a college career filled with injuries. The latest roster projections have the Eagles keeping just Saquon Barkley, Will Shipley, and Kenneth Gainwell. But Milton has run hard during the preseason, scoring a touchdown late in the second preseason game to help push the Eagles to victory. He at least has earned a spot on the Eagles practice squad, and his blue-chip background with Georgia usually does not get ignored if he hits the waiver wire. If Saquon Barkley missed time, the team would likely need to look for a power complement. Milton fits that bill. 

WR Jalen Tolbert, Dallas

CeeDee Lamb has missed all of Dallas's preseason activity, an opportunity that has allowed others to step up. Tolbert has. Tolbert has been a preseason star, solidifying himself in three wide receiver sets and consistently winning deep. The Cowboys need his field-stretching ability in their lineup. Lamb can do it all, but Brandin Cooks excelled as a reliable intermediate target for Dak Prescott in 2023 and is best suited for that role at this point of his career. The offense will likely take a hit if Lamb remains out into the season, but there is ample opportunity for Tolbert to earn a regular target share.
