dynastynerds.comExcellent article! You have two of my top guys (Earnest Jones & Derrick Barnes) that I am looking to draft everywhere I can

Any reasons in particular for those players? Their talent? Their situation?
First year IDP player just trying to be a sponge

Both of those reasons actually. They are no Parsons, Collins, or Davis, but they are very good and they don't have a lot of competition in front of them on the rosters. Both could start as early as this season, but year two is more likely. Both the LA Rams (Jones) and Detroit (Barnes) have a need at LB and both may have found their guys in this draft with these two. I actually have written articles on both just before the draft. You can check them out here on IDP Guys.org

Love this, really cool information.
Also I like how by IDP sleepers you actually listed rookie IDP sleepers. It feels like every other rookie IDP article are advertising sleepers like jamin Davis and Micah parsons.

Guys like Barnes and Wallow both have great opportunity but I'm not sure they have the potential to become long term starters.
I could see Buddy Johnson having some success with the Steelers.
I also think Chazz Surratt has some potential if they can develop him and use his abilities.

I think Barnes has some long-term potential. Wallow... not as much. Houston is also a bit of a dumpster fire right now.

He's someone I've seen mentioned, but I think he's flying under the radar. He could be a super sneaky sleeper. Definitely could've added him to an "All LB" list.
I also think Chazz Surratt has some potential if they can develop him and use his abilities.
I actually have Surratt slightly above Jones. Surratt has a straight shot to the WLB slot. He's currently listed behind Vigil who has been nothing but a placeholder his entire career.

Thanks for the response! I'm with you, I definitely have Barnes higher than Wallow.

Even if Surratt does get the Will spot, it's unlikely he does much in 2021. Minnesota usually has 2 LBs play 90% of snaps and one play about 30%. Barr and Kendricks will be the 90% guys.
If there's and injury, definitely agree on the opportunity though.

I really like Monty Rice as a taxi squad stash too with both Brown and Evans playing on expiring contracts.

Absolutely!

Thoughts on Shaka Toney? He’s gaining some off-season buzz
1
He's buried in the depth chart. We'll have to see if he makes the roster. He's also a bit undersized for a DE.

Would Wallow be more worthy of a roster spot than Kamal Martin in light of the D. Campbell signing?

Ernest Jones doesn’t play for MIN
Shit! Good catch!
Edit: we'll get that fixed.
It's fixed!
I was just about to say this
