PK, your list isn't what I consider to be sleepers. B.J. Raji is probably going top 15, maybe top 10. Your list of centers are the top rated at their positions. I think a sleeper is a guy who turns out a lot better than where he is rated going into the draft. Ryans was a sleeper. At this point, Slaton was a sleeper. Diles - sleeper. Your qb list is obviously all potential sleepers by pretty much any definition.

A sleeper is a guy everyone misses on. He's the player that the guy that whines about management not drafting two years ago. The idiot Texans could have drafted Mister Wonderful, but passed him up to draft Mister Lead Feet. The only thing is, every other team passed him up, also. Three times.

This should be a short list that you think will make you proud someday. Like Roy said, everyone has these pet players they want to pimp.

I've already mentioned a couple of mine. Kory Sheets-RB and Jeremy Childs-WR. Both these guys go undrafted according to Draftek consensus. I'll add a couple of others that you guys have already mentioned. Jasper Brinkley -LB and Xavier Fulton-OT. Bear Pascoe-TE, also.
