10 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 13
Shaun Draughn, RB, San Francisco 49ers
In an age where we're constantly struggling to decipher how a backfield's snaps will be split week to week, Shaun Draughn has emerged as a true workhorse in San Francisco with Carlos Hyde sidelined.
Draughn handled 100% of the backfield snaps in Week 12, and figures to be in line for a comparable workload once again this week. In a matchup with the Chicago Bears and their third worst rush defense -- per our numbers -- Draughn has a great shot at finding success with his heavy workload.
While the 49ers are underdogs in this matchup, Draughn's proven ability in the passing game -- he's posted 17 receptions over the previous three weeks -- should ease any concerns regarding game flow potentially getting the best of him.
