Fantasy football sleepers, busts and breakouts for 2017 revisited

We took our first look at sleepers, busts and breakouts back in June, but much has changed since then, so we are back with a fresh take as draft season ramps up. You can check out that initial list with detailed explanations from our ESPN Fantasy Football experts here.

Below, you will find our updated picks, plus thoughts on players whom our experts added this time around, based on these definitions:

Sleeper: a player who will far surpass his average draft position (ADP) in standard ESPN leagues for the 2017 season.
Bust: a player who is expected to be a solid starter in standard ESPN leagues but will fail to live up to those expectations this season.
