The difference between winning and losing your league often comes down to a single decision on draft day. It could be taking a player whose production explodes, turning him into one of the elite players in the game. It could be selecting a player whom others slept on during the draft but far exceeded preseason value. It could also be a player whom you intended to rely on but then flopped miserably.To assist you in securing the best impact players and draft values -- while avoiding players who will wreck your roster -- the ESPN Fantasy Football staff offers its updated list of top sleepers, busts and breakouts as defined below:Sleeper: A player who will far surpass his average draft position (ADP) in standard ESPN leagues for the 2016 season. Bust: A player who is expected to be a solid starter in standard ESPN leagues but will fail to live up to those expectations this season. Breakout: A player who will leap into or close to the upper echelon of players at his position for the first time because of a dramatic increase in production compared to his previous seasons (or in his rookie season).Our panel is composed of these ESPN Fantasy writers and editors: Matthew Berry, Tom Carpenter, Mike Clay, Tristan H. Cockcroft, Ken Daube, Leo Howell, KC Joyner, Eric Karabell, Keith Lipscomb, Jim McCormick and Field Yates.SleepersThese are the players our panel believe will exceed their 2016 average draft position and provide value for those who take a chance on them.Blake Bortles, QB, Jacksonville JaguarsWhy is his 2015 campaign almost universally seen as an anomaly? All Bortles did was rank fourth among quarterbacks in fantasy points (302), fifth in points on vertical passes (133 on aerials thrown 11 or more yards downfield) and stretch vertical points (71 on attempts traveling 20 or more yards), and tied for seventh in rushing points (39). A portion of this had to do with Jacksonville leading the league in offensive drives when trailing on the scoreboard (126), something that likely wont occur as often given the Jaguars defensive upgrades, but the Panthers, Cardinals and Patriots finished 1-2-3 in offensive drives when leading and that didnt stop their quarterbacks from ranking in the top five in fantasy points. -- K.C. JoynerMarcus Mariota, QB, Tennessee TitansMike Mularkey coined a unique phrase this past winter for the Titans 2016 offense: exotic smashmouth. The smashmouth element is tied to the backfield tandem of workhorse veteran DeMarco Murray and bruising rookie Derrick Henry, and the exotic element could be satisfied by Mariotas rare rushing ability. Mularkey has promised an uptick in designed runs for the Oregon product, which not only would lighten the box for the backfield but would add significant fantasy value to a player who -- if we remove his limited work in Week 15 at New England -- finished 10th in fantasy points per game among signal-callers as a rookie. Thats not a typo; Mariota produced 18.1 standard fantasy points per game while battling through injuries, a coaching change and a depleted receiving corps. Ill have tons of shares of Mariota at QB2 pricing this summer, while QB1 production is well within the outcome spectrum. -- Jim McCormickDuke Johnson Jr., RB, Cleveland BrownsHell be pitted head-to-head with Isaiah Crowell for the Browns running back duties entering camp, and most fantasy owners will assume a result of more of the same: Crowell on first and second downs and Johnson on thirds. Still, Johnsons 2015 got off to a sluggish start because of a hamstring injury and then a concussion, but his final rushing numbers werent all that far off from Crowells despite that. Johnson was a three-down back in college at Miami, and the Browns presumably would like to see him take on more of the rushing chores in 2016, especially since new coach Hue Jackson is notoriously run-heavy on offense. At the very least, Johnsons prowess in the receiving game grants him an elevated weekly floor; at his best, he could be a 300-touch player, a tier reached by only four running backs in 2015. -- Tristan H. CockcroftBilal Powell, RB, New York JetsBack in March, the Jets signed Matt Forte to a three-year, $12 million deal. One day later, they re-signed Powell to a three-year, $11.25 million deal. Albeit quietly, Powell was heavily involved when healthy last season. He averaged 7.3 carries and 6.8 targets during nine full games. Powell ranked 10th among backs in fantasy points during those weeks and was fifth in PPR scoring. Forte is sure to play a significant offenivee role out of the gate, but this is likely to be a timeshare and should the overworked 30-year-old miss time or see a dip in production, Powell will be locked as a top-20 fantasy back. Hes a steal in the double-digit rounds. -- Mike ClayArian Foster, RB, Miami DolphinsOn a per-game basis, Foster has been one of fantasys top running backs since 2010, and lets face it, nobody expects 16 games out of him. My issue is that owners will treat him markedly different than others we know are missing games, such as Tom Brady and LeVeon Bell. Well, I dont want to penalize Foster that much. I think he plays in September and plays great, scoring touchdowns, catching passes, all of it. If you invest, you have to be prepared for his season to end at any point, so lets assume youve accrued depth. The upside is ridiculous. Like top-10 RB upside, and this guy likely wont cost a top-50 pick -- Eric KarabellSammie Coates, WR, Pittsburgh SteelersWith Martavis Bryant on the sidelines, the Steelers will have opportunities in their receiving game this season, and Coates speed and vertical ability makes him a good fit to absorb a sizable chunk of Bryants vacated targets. Steelers coaches were glowing about Coates offseason, to the point that he was soaring up ranking sheets at the onset of training camp; back-to-back poor performances in the preseason, however, have restored him to the last-round flier tier and sleeper status. Coates needs a big finish to his preseason in order to be a valuable fantasy cog in September, but in an offense as pass-happy as the Steelers, hes sure to get a good number of chances. -- Tristan H. CockcroftTorrey Smith. WR, San Francisco 49ersThe adage that fantasy owners have short memories might not be any more evident than with Smith, who is going in the 10th or 11th round in early mocks I have seen and more or less left for dead among fantasy analysts. Last year was brutal, no doubt, and his quarterback situation is not, shall we say, ideal. But at just 27 years old, Smith has averaged a touchdown for every 7.2 receptions during his career, which isnt surprising given his speed and red zone efficiency (he has converted 17 of 24 red zone catches -- 70 percent -- into scores). But can the 49ers get him the ball?This is me saying they can and they will. I mean, who else are they throwing to there? Jerome Simpson? DiAndre Campbell? Exactly. Jeremy Maclin and DeSean Jackson each had one season as the top target in Chip Kellys offense. Both set career highs in targets, yards and tied for career highs in touchdowns. (If Smith sets career highs in yards and touchdowns, hed have at least 1,129 yards and 12 scores, which would have been tied for seventh best at WR last season). Despite a slow start and a season in which everything went wrong, Jordan Matthews still finished as a top-20 WR last season and was WR9 from Weeks 9-17. Any DeAndre Hopkins owner will tell you that you dont necessarily need a good QB to be a fantasy stud, and while I am obviously not saying Smith is Hopkins, I am saying hell be a much more complete WR as Chip Kellys best (only?) weapon in the passing game and much more than the situational deep threat he was in Baltimore. In five years in the NFL, Smith has never missed a game and at his current ADP, he is an absolute steal. -- Matthew BerryTyler Lockett, WR, Seattle SeahawksWhile Doug Baldwin racked up the monster numbers during the second half of last season, it was the emergence of Lockett as a receiving threat that coincided with the revival of the Seahawks dominance. In his final seven games, Lockett averaged just less than six targets per game and was good for nearly 60 receiving yards per game in those contests. Lockett is the multithreat weapon that Pete Carroll envisioned when the team acquired Percy Harvin. Look for his role to expand significantly. -- Ken DaubeSterling Shepard, WR, New York GiantsThis is as much about opportunity as it is about Shepards physical gifts. Well start with the gifts, though, which feature impressive route-running ability and strong run-after-the-catch skills. According to research by ESPN Stats & Information, Shepard converted 13 first downs on third-down plays last season at Oklahoma. No other OU player had more than 10 catches on third downs. Then, consider that the Giants led the NFL in snaps (862) and pass attempts (569) with three or more WRs on the field in 2015. Shepard will play a lot, and I have concerns about Victor Cruz returning to form, so I expect Shepard to a be solid No. 2 option for Eli Manning when the dust settles. Take a shot on him as a WR4 or WR5 in Ben McAdoos system and hope he becomes at least a regular flex consideration. -- Keith LipscombCoby Fleener, TE, New Orleans SaintsStop me if you have heard this before: a tall, athletic tight end posting huge numbers under a Sean Peyton/Drew Brees offense. Fleener becomes the latest receiver to occupy that role and he is fully capable of doing everything and more than Ben Watson did last season. Many will point to Fleeners inability to effectively block as a negative, but ignore that rhetoric. Jimmy Graham is one of the worst blocking tight ends in the NFL and the Saints worked around that. Look for Fleener to finish in the top five at his position. -- Ken DaubeAntonio Gates, TE, San Diego ChargersPessimists have been calling Gates old for more than a few years, implying the end of production is coming. And yet, last season Gates, at 35, finished one standard point out of the top-10 among tight ends despite missing five games, four due to suspension. Perhaps he wont be the No. 2 tight end producer like 2014, but this remains a strong offense and Gates is a large reason why, especially near the goal line. Few view Gates as a top-10 tight end, but I view him as a starter in a 10-team format, and with a post-round 10 selection. -- Eric KarabellBustsWhich players are destined to fall short of their draft day expectations? Our panel suggest you stay away from these players who are sure to disappoint.Blake Bortles, QB, Jacksonville JaguarsBortles finished his second professional season with the fourth-most fantasy points at the position. Unfortunately, thats about where this success story ends. Bortles tossed a league-high 18 interceptions and completed 58.6 percent of his passes (which was actually lower than his rookie-season mark). Bortles success was more about volume and being in the right place at the right time, as the Jaguars called pass 68 percent of the time (second-highest) and scored 88 percent of their offensive touchdowns through the air (third-highest). Defensive improvements combined with the addition of Chris Ivory all but guarantee more reliance on the run in 2016. Bortles is an obvious regression candidate and best viewed as a QB2. -- Mike ClayCam Newton, QB, Carolina PanthersNewton was only ranked tied for seventh in fantasy points after eight weeks of the 2015 season (131). A slate of incredibly favorable matchups during the second half of that campaign (including contests against six teams that ended the season ranked 22nd or worse in passing yards allowed per attempt) allowed him to make the MVP-caliber turnaround. The matchup slate is nowhere near as favorable in 2016, as Carolina has tough opponents all over their schedule, including Denver in Week 1, Minnesota in Week 3, and four games against the NFC West. Hell still be a top-five fantasy QB, but the odds are Newton will be closer to the bottom of that top-five tier than to the top of it. -- K.C. JoynerPhilip Rivers, QB, San Diego ChargersThe concern I have with Rivers is that he is in an odd spot as a quarterback who typically has been undervalued but may be overvalued this season after tossing career-highs in yardage (4,792) and passes (661) in 2015. I think he has intrigue as a later-round QB2 pick in two-QB leagues, but I expect he will be taken much earlier in drafts. If you are in a 12-team, one-QB system and dont target an elite quarterback, I wouldnt want to have my team depending on Rivers as my top option for the full season. His fantasy value will come down to where you secure him on draft day. -- Tom CarpenterJamaal Charles, RB, Kansas City ChiefsCharles is 29 years old and battling back from his second ACL injury in the last five years. If those negatives arent enough, consider that Kansas City has already seen what kind of rushing production they can get without Charles in their backfield. From Week 6 (the game following Charles season-ending injury) to the end of the season, Kansas City ranked sixth in rushing yards (1,495), fourth in yards per rush (4.8), tied for second in rushing touchdowns (14), sixth in rush yards after first defensive contact (605) and fifth in rush yards before first defensive contact (890). Those numbers will give Andy Reid plenty of motivation to split the carries between Charles, Spencer Ware and Charcandrick West, and thus put a RB2/RB3 ceiling on Charles. -- K.C. JoynerLatavius Murray, RB, Oakland RaidersSpeaking with my sources around the Raiders, the word kept coming back the same: Oakland does not want Murray to be a workhorse back. They made a run at Doug Martin in free agency, and looking closer you can see why. His fantasy production was a result of volume (third in the NFL with 266 carries) and not efficiency (33rd in yards per carry). He seemed to wear down as the game went on, averaging just 2.2 yards per carry in the fourth quarter last season, and scored five of his six rushing TDs on his first 10 carries of the game.Want more? Of the 15 running backs with 200 or more carries last year, no one was stopped before gaining three yards more consistently than Murray (49.6 percent of the time, 132 of 266 carries). It wasnt just the games as he wore down as the season went on, either. Murrays yards per carry dropped from 4.8 in games 1-8 to 3.3 in games 9-16 (a 31.3 percent drop off). Less touches might make him more explosive, but it might also just make him less everything, because his value last year was volume. Oakland added DeAndre Washington in the draft, and expect him or someone else to take a chunk of the work away from Latavius. Either way, hes a flex play who is being drafted as a RB2. -- Matthew BerryJeremy Langford, RB, Chicago BearsWhere do I begin? On 375 rookie-season snaps, Langford was nothing short of dreadful. He averaged 2.9 yards per carry against defensive sets with fewer than five defensive backs. He averaged 1.1 yards after contact per attempt. He caught 54 percent of his targets. Per Pro Football Focus, he forced seven missed tackles on 148 carries. Langford ranked dead last at the position in each of those categories. Add into the equation a lack of explosive plays and poor blocking skills, and Langford ends up looking more like a candidate for a benching than he does a breakout. -- Mike ClayThomas Rawls, RB, Seattle SeahawksHe had an excellent 2015, but Im loath to pick the player with only seven NFL games proven status with significant injury questions as training camp dawns. After Rawls fractured his left ankle in Week 14, the Seahawks spent the offseason refusing to make a Week 1 guarantee, plus selected three running backs in the draft, including a superior pass catcher in C.J. Prosise, who should cut into Rawls already modest contribution in that department. I might change my tune come August if Rawls injury questions soften as we approach preseason games, but right now hes in a must-handcuff situation, a strategy I typically try to avoid, and I think hes too rich for my tastes as a second-round selection. -- Tristan H. CockcroftDez Bryant, WR, Dallas CowboysBryant has a trio of major concerns. First, a broken foot -- which required multiple surgeries, including a pair of bone grafts -- for a wide receiver is nothing to be taken lightly. Second, the Cowboys should look to run more with Ezekiel Elliott in the fold, which may help Bryant in some regard but also should limit his workload and upside. Finally, Tony Romo is as fragile as they come at this stage of his career. One bad hit, and the Cowboys passing attack goes in the tank again. Thats an awful lot of risk to take with what probably will be a first-round pick -- especially considering the high-end depth available at wide receiver this season. -- Tom CarpenterJordan Matthews, WR, Philadelphia EaglesMaybe Im too close to the situation as a critical Eagles fan (is there any other kind?), but I find it troubling that a player with such a rare blend of size and strength (ranks in the 75th percentile and up in height, weight, arm length, hand size and bench press among positional prospects since 1999, per MockDraftable) cant, or rather hasnt, been able to earn significant snaps as an outside receiver. Doug Pederson has intimated Matthews has struggled on the outside in offseason work so far, and is still best suited for the slot. To be fair, Matthews was 27th in fantasy points per game at the position last season and weve seen Marques Colston produce with a similar build from the slot. Meanwhile, Matthews statistical success was found in Chip Kellys receiver-friendly, snap-happy scheme. Now that Kelly went west and Andy Reids conversely conservative West Coast system is back in South Philly, I believe Matthews ceiling isnt much higher than his 2015 output. -- Jim McCormickAlshon Jeffery, WR, Chicago BearsWide receiver offers a lot of depth in 2016, so this isnt simply an indictment of Jeffery. He most certainly has the upside to finish where he ranks in our consensus file (11th), but there are just a few factors that have me ever so slightly concerned: he was banged up throughout 2015, the second time in four seasons when injuries have held him out of at least six games. Also, the Bears will have Kevin White on the field this season, which might (again, ever so slightly) eat into Jefferys targets. Jeffery is an exceptional talent. Wide receiver just offers enough options this year for me to think some others might rise up the ranks ahead of him. -- Field YatesLadarius Green, TE, Pittsburgh SteelersOnce. Thats the answer. Once in nine NFL seasons since 2007, during stints as the offensive coordinator in Arizona, head coach in Kansas City and offensive coordinator in Pittsburgh, Todd Haley has had a tight end of his have more than five touchdowns. Once. Heath Miller in 2012 had 10 scores and more than 800 yards. But thats an outlier. Over the past nine years, tight ends under Haley have averaged 54 catches for 561 yards and four touchdowns per year. Not one person. The entire position group.Last year, Eric Ebron had 537 yards and five touchdowns in 14 games and was TE13. But theres no Martavis Bryant you say. OK, fine. In nine games the past two years with Ben Roethlisberger as the starting QB and without Bryant in the lineup, Miller had 38 catches on 51 targets for 378 yards and two TDs. Over the course of a 16-game season, that pace is 68 catches on 91 targets for 672 yards and four TDs. Or to put another way ... TE12, just behind Antonio Gates.Yeah, but Ladarius Green is a lot better than Heath Miller, you scream. Or Tony Moeaki or Leonard Pope and any other tight end Todd Haley has even had. And that may very well be true. He certainly appears to be more athletic. But theres lot of fantasy graves littered with athletic looking tight ends that never actually had consistent fantasy production (cough Jared Cook cough). New team, new QB, new system, already hurt and youve got Antonio Brown and LeVeon Bell there. I wouldnt be shocked if Green has a strong year, but at his current top eight asking price, he has to hit that to be worth it. Green will be like many TE2s this year; a few weeks that he crushes, and many when he disappears. That is fine for a TE2. Just not the top-8 guy like hes being drafted as. Hes being drafted ahead of Gary Barnidge, Jimmy Graham and Zach Ertz. Really? -- Matthew BerryTyler Eifert, TE, Cincinnati Bengals Eifert was never going to score 13 touchdowns again in 2016, and then he got hurt during the offseason. There could not be more red flags for the Bengals TE, yet he probably will still be drafted as a top-tier TE1. Eifert was a nice breakout player last year who had strong numbers for his position even without the touchdowns (52 catches for 615 yards), but he saw only 70 targets and is bound for touchdown regression. Theres too much hype here to ever get a good return on your investment. -- Leo HowellAustin Seferian-Jenkins, TE, Tampa Bay BuccaneersSefarian-Jenkins checks a lot of the physical boxes (hes enormous and athletic, for starters), but Im not buying 2016 as a breakout season for him. He has missed 16 of 32 games in his pro career, has had uneven production in the games that he has appeared in (23 of his 55 fantasy points last season came in Week 1), and Im not convinced that fellow Bucs tight end Cameron Brate wont have an involved role again this season. -- Field YatesBreakoutsWho will join the ranks of the elite and help you win your league this season? Here are our expert picks for 2016s breakout stars.Matt Jones, RB, Washington RedskinsI know, I know. I probably should have been the eight billionth person to write about DeVante Parker here. But while I like Parker as well, I chose Matt Jones. Partially its about opportunity. Alfred Morris is gone, and passing-down specialist Chris Thompson is the only real current threat for playing time. We will see what August brings for Mack Brown and rookie Keith Marshall, but for now, this is going to be the Matt Jones show for an offense that was top 10 in points per game last year. I expect Washingtons offense will once again be one of the higher scoring ones in the NFL and theres a lot of reason to think Jones will be a big part of that.Last year, Washington had 61 rush attempts in the red zone (top 11 in the NFL). Jones and Morris combined for 48 of those. With Morris no longer there, its fair to think Jones could flirt with 50 red zone rushing attempts this year. Only five running backs in the NFL had 50 or more red zone rushes last year, including the top four fantasy running backs (Devonta Freeman, Doug Martin, Adrian Peterson and DeAngelo Williams). I thought, just from the eye test, that Matt Jones looked last year like a potentially special player. Players that big shouldnt be that fast. He also struggled with staying healthy and ball security, so no doubt, the leash is short. But the gig is all his for now and its worth noting that last year, in games in which he carried the ball more than 10 times, he averaged 11.9 fantasy points per game. Take that pace over a 16-game season and youre looking at 190 points -- or, the third-highest scoring RB in 2015 (Martin was RB3 with 187 points). Talented young running back on a high-scoring offense, with the job all to himself at an outside-the-top-20-at-his-position price? Ill draft that all day every day. -- Matthew BerrySomeone has to run the ball for Kirk Cousins and the Washington offense, and Jones, who was inconsistent as a rookie, is clearly first in line, with seemingly little competition now that Alfred Morris is gone. Jones has the size and speed to handle regular duty and create big plays, and being in a pass-first offense could actually aid him. Sure, his 2015 stats were not glorious, as Jones wasnt impressive after contact and wasnt a major factor as a receiver, but that creates the buying opportunity now that hes healthy after offseason hip surgery. He can be a RB3. -- Eric KarabellEzekiel Elliott, RB, Dallas CowboysAs a Michigan man and lifelong Dallas Cowboys hater, I have every reason to wish for Elliott to flop, but you have to put emotions aside to win in fantasy. The bottom line is that he simply has too much going for him to not bust loose immediately as one of the top studs in the game. I know all too well how talented and durable Elliott is, and he is poised to be a three-down back behind an elite offensive line for a team that needs to run the ball a lot to keep Tony Romo healthy. He is clearly superior to DeMarco Murray, who led the league in rushing two years ago, and arguably has less risk than the likes of Adrian Peterson (31), LeVeon Bell (knee) and Todd Gurley (horrible O-line). You can make a legitimate case for taking Elliott as the No. 1 running back. -- Tom CarpenterI almost feel guilty selecting Ezekiel Elliott as a breakout candidate because it is so obvious. Elliott is the most well-rounded rookie running backs to enter the league since Adrian Peterson. Hell line up behind an offensive line that allowed Darren McFadden? -- yes, Darren McFadden -- to finish with the fourth most rushing yards in the league last season. With Elliott being a near lock to be the every down back for the Dallas Cowboys, hes virtually guaranteed to reach 1,400 yards from scrimmage and eight or more touchdowns, metrics only achieved by Peterson and?Devonta Freeman last year. -- Ken DaubeDeVante Parker, WR, Miami Dolphins Now fully healthy after dealing with a foot injury as a rookie, the 6-foot-3, 218-pounder who ran a 4.45 40 is poised to show why hell be a No. 1 wideout sooner than later. Parker emerged late in 2015, following?Rishard Matthews season-ending injury, and totaled at least 63 receiving yards in five of the final six games, including a trio of touchdowns. Im a believer that the transition from college to the pros is tough on receivers, so I fully expect Parker to break out as a sophomore, flashing the big-play potential that saw him average 19.0 yards per catch last season. A 1,100-yard, 7-TD season wouldnt surprise me. -- Keith LipscombJameis Winston, QB, Tampa Bay BuccaneersMobile quarterbacks always possess the highest statistical floors at the position, making Winston a no-doubter No. 2 quarterback -- a viable backup in a standard league and a surefire starter in 2QB formats -- but this is more about his growth potential than the safety in his selection. Hes in better shape entering this preseason than last, but more important, he spent the offseason working on improving his chemistry with Mike Evans, whose statistical fall in 2015 represents effectively the difference between Winstons status as a No. 2 fantasy option and a potential starter. Winston sure looks like a player on a mission entering 2016, and since I like to go the cheap route at quarterback, Ill certainly be targeting him as one of my two. -- Tristan H. CockcroftJohn Brown, WR, Arizona CardinalsJohn Brown is a special athlete with strong wide receiver skills, and its only a matter of time before he truly rises to the top of the Arizona receiving corps and becomes an annual WR1 selection. He improved in every statistical category in his second season, going more than 1,000 yards and gaining more yards per reception. As he continues to see consistent snaps and overtakes his veteran teammates for opportunities, those numbers will only increase again. I wont argue if you think Michael Floyd is due for a breakout, as well, but I value Browns versatility and ability to play in the slot, as well as his elite speed. -- Leo HowellCarson Palmer led all NFL quarterbacks in passes that traveled at least 10 yards in the air last season and was fifth in QBR on such throws. John Brown averaged more fantasy points per game in 2015 than Mike Evans, T.Y. Hilton, Amari Cooper and Randall Cobb, to name a few peers sure to have higher ADPs this summer. This success was accomplished despite battling a lingering hamstring injury for the second half of the season. We already know Brown is lightning quick with sub-4.4 jets and delivers impressive YAC skills, elements Bruce Arians has celebrated and deployed with great success in the past. By next summer, after a big-play filled 2016, Brown will truly be ADP peers with the names above. -- Jim McCormickJay Ajayi, RB, Miami DolphinsNew Dolphins head coach Adam Gase has indicated Ajayi is taking charge in the battle for Miamis top running back spot. That could be enough to vault Ajayi into breakout territory, but its worth noting that Ajayi received good run blocking (roughly defined as the offense not allowing the defense to disrupt a rush attempt) on only 28.8 percent of his carries last season. For perspective, only two qualifying backs had a lower good blocking rate last season. Given Miamis offensive line upgrades, its safe to say that Ajayi is very likely to combine a lot more carries with much better run blocking and potentially end up a low-end RB1 if all goes well. -- K.C. JoynerThomas Rawls, RB, Seattle SeahawksRawls has already broken out, to some degree. He performed better than veteran Marshawn Lynch early in the season, then totaled more than 250 yards from scrimmage in Week 11. Now Rawls just needs to run well for 16 games. Despite being an undrafted free agent, he averaged 5.6 yards per carry and enters this season as the starter, presuming he recovers fully from a broken ankle. Seattles offense provided Lynch with the tools to be an annual top-10 back, and Rawls should follow in those footsteps. -- Eric KarabellLamar Miller, RB, Houston TexansBefore you scream at me about how Lamar Miller finished sixth among running backs last season in scoring, Ill add this: he also had seven games last season with six or fewer fantasy points. Millers season was tilted by three incredible outings in which he racked up 80 of his 173 points (46.2 percent). The issue with Miller from a fantasy perspective has rarely been about ability; its been about opportunity. In his 61 career games, Miller has had just two -- yes, two -- games with 20 or more carries. In Houston, the expectation should be that 20 carries could be attainable in many weeks. So while Miller has already landed in the top six before, expect a far more balanced effort in Houston in 2016. -- Field YatesDonte Moncrief, WR, Indianapolis ColtsThe Colts knew they were playing the long game when they selected raw 20-year-old Donte Moncrief in the third round of the 2014 draft. Two years later, Moncrief has just turned 23 years old and is in position to operate as Andrew Lucks No. 2 target in a pass-heavy, high-volume, high-scoring offense. The 6-foot-2, 222-pound Ole Miss product was actually on the verge of a breakout last season prior to Lucks injury woes. Moncrief scored five touchdowns and ranked 22nd among receivers in fantasy points during the seven games Luck was active. Moncrief scored once and ranked 55th during the other nine weeks. Luck is back to full health, which will allow Moncrief a breakout 2016 campaign. Hes a cant-miss target in the early-to-mid rounds of your draft. -- Mike Clay Basketball Shoes Australia Online .ca!

BARRIE, Ont. -- Ryan Rupert scored his second goal of the game in overtime as the London Knights held on to beat the Barrie Colts 5-4 in Game 6 of the Ontario Hockey League final Saturday night. The Knights victory ties the series 3-3, with the deciding game to be played in London, Ont., on Monday night. Bo Horvat had a goal and an assist for London, with Brett Welychka and Tommy Hughes also finding the back of the net. "We have good character and leadership in the room," said Knights head coach Dale Hunter. "Its one shot wins, and thats whats exciting about overtime hockey." Mitchell Theoret scored twice for Barrie, which entered the third period down 4-0 before scoring four straight goals to force overtime. Andreas Athanasiou and Erik Bradford also responded for the Colts. Barrie scored three times in 4:11 late in the third to tie the contest. After Athanasiou got Barrie on the board, Bradford batted in a rebound to bring it to 4-2. Theoret kknocked in an opportunity from the front of the goal just 25 seconds later, setting up the frantic finish.dddddddddddd A pass in front of the goal went off of Theorets skate and in, tying the contest. "It was a great comeback," said Colts head coach Dale Hawerchuk. "We had them on the run for a while."
