Darren Sproles, RB, Philadelphia Phillies

Average Draft Position (ADP): 187

Pick/Round: 16.07

Every year, Darren Sproles is seemingly displaced by a new commodity, regardless of what team he is on.

And every year, we sleep on him -- evidenced by his rock-bottom ADP -- and he continues to produce. For eight consecutive seasons, Sproles has finished as a top-30 running back in PPR formats, yet he's going in the 16th round of drafts today.

With LeGarrette Blount signing a deal in the offseason, it made sense yet again that we'd ignore Sproles. But it's not like he was bad last season -- he recorded a top-20 Rushing NEP per attempt of 0.06, while adding 52 catches to his resume. That makes eight consecutive seasons of 40 receptions or more.

He's a dependable player that is consistently involved in the offense, making him a great value given where he's going off the board.
