Fantasy Sleepers/Busts

I know most have probably drafted by now but I draft this weekend.

Anbyody have an idea on some sleepers I could get late in the draft? How about busts??
 
Please share, I have one tomorrow and been to busy working to watch preseason games to see any possible sleepers.
 
I think Reggie Bush is under valued this year, my man DMac could go off big as well, also think Palmer could go big down in AZ with some legit WRs at his disposal. They are not sexy names so people seem to let them slide to the late rounds for where I think their value or potential value is at.
 
Kenbrell Thompkins. WR for the Patriots. Lloyds gone, Hernandez in jail, Gronk out for a while. Thompkins will be up there with Amendolla for targets by Brady.

Ben Tate. Foster has had a lot of carries the last 3 years. History shows he will not make it through the year.

Bryce Brown. He's really good and the Eagles will run 70-80 plays a game so a lot of carries to go around between him and McCoy.

Romo. For some reason people don't realize how good a fantasy QB he is. Who cares if he doesn't win a playoff game? He throws for nearly 5,000 yards and with Dez Bryant he has a top 3 WR to throw to.

Alshon Jeffrey. More of a gut feeling, but I think he has a breakout year and gets a lot of passes with teams doubling up on Marsall.

Depends on the leauge but Bush is going 2nd round in most PPR leagues...as he should. Not really a sleeper.

Busts. Foster, too many carries. Brady, who is he throwing to? CJ Spiller. I love him but with no QB teams will stack the box.

I have Jeffrey and Thompkins in all of my leagues because I feel the same why. Also took Tate in one for the same reason. Either A) Foster plays and Tate has a more involved role as #2 and I get some value, or B)Foster is nagged all year and Tate breaks out.

I don't expect much from him but I like Dwyer too. Pitt can't seem to keep healthy backs, so he may just find himself as the starter for a while.

The Denver backs all seem to be up and down as well. One week Hillman is starting, then it is Ball, then it is Moreno. Whoever takes the lead role is a good one to have, but that is a guessing game. You could probably get Hillman and Moreno pretty late still.
 
Here is my roster:

QB- Stafford and Cam Newton
RB- Doug Martin, Eddie Lacy, Montee Ball and Danny Woodhead
WR- Victor Cruz, Torrey Smith, Alshon Jeffrey, Ryan Broyles and Miles Austin
TE- Vernon Davis and Tyler Eifert
D/ST- Texans
K- Matt Prater

We play 2 RB, 2 WR and 1 RB/WR
 
I would keep an eye on Tavon Austin the rookie wr from West Virginia. Knock on him is he's too small, but dude can move. Eddie Lacy stock was already high but then the other rb (don't know name) got hurt so it's all Lacy in GB. Also, I'd go for value in the early rounds. This is a deep qb draft and you can wait till your 4th or even 5th pick before picking a qb. Load up on some rb's and wr's in the first 4 rounds imo. I play in a 10 man league and got Russel Wilson in the 7th round and RG3 in the 10th.

Both Stafford and Cam are 2 QBs I have my eye on that I think I can pick up for a decent value.
 
Carolinas offense is horrendous.

Not a sleeper, but with Brown going down last night, Wilson may be under valued with the NYG
