The top of NFL draft boards gets most of the attention leading up to the big event later this month in Wisconsin, but everyone is also looking for value. College coaches say there's plenty in the 2025 draft class. Sleeper picks are generally considered to be those outside of the first two rounds, toward the end of Day 2 and throughout Day 3. They're the types of players who fill out the best NFL rosters, requiring only moderate investment now but bringing the potential for big payoffs down the line. Sleepers can be found at every position, including the most coveted ones like quarterback, cornerback and pass rusher, and are often overshadowed by the overall depth at their spots. But NFL teams have devoted ample resources to scouting not only the undeniable top-20 prospects but also those who might still be on the board Friday night and into Saturday of the draft. After talking with coaches in every power conference and several in the Group of 5, here's a group of potential sleepers to watch when NFL draft weekend kicks off in Green Bay. All these players are rated outside the top 100 prospects according to Scouts Inc. This is by no means a complete list but gives some names to track as the draft nears. Players are sorted by their overall draft ranking.  Jacob Parrish, CB, Kansas State Wildcats
