Fantasy Football Top 15 Deep Sleepers for 2016 – Number Seven: Michael Thomas

The New Orleans Saints rookie receiver, Michael Thomas, looks good so far in the preseason. During the Patriots game, Thomas hauled in four passes for 67 yards. That’s coming on strong young man. This got my attention and some others peoples as well.

If he continues to play well in the preseason and build a relationship with Drew Brees, this could mean fantasy gold for owners of Thomas this season and many seasons to come.

Thomas comes from the Ohio State University. Last season, he received 56 balls for 781 yards and nine touchdowns as a Junior for the Buckeyes. Now he’s making plays for the Saints and looking good on the NFL field in black and gold.

Thomas is going 51st of the wide receivers and 145th overall on average during draft day. Make sure to pick him up near there.
