In every NFL draft there will be so called "sleepers" and what I like to term "value players." And there IS a big difference. Sleepers may be smaller schools players or under-the-radar types from major schools who have a chance to have nice NFL careers either as starters or primo backup players who also contribute on special teams. Here's my list of both for the 2013 draft.
SLEEPERS
DT—Everett Dawkins, Florida St….round 5-6
DE–David Bass, Missouri Western…late 5 or 6
SS–J. J. Wilcox, Georgia Southern….round 5-6

FS– Rontez Miles, California (Pa.)…undrafted free agent
Jakar Hamilton, So. Carolina St…round 6-7
Don Jones, Arkansas St….round 7
CB—Dax Swanner, Sam Houston….round 6-7
QB–Zac Dysert, Miami, Ohio…round 5
RB–Dennis Johnson, Arkansas…round 6-7
Robbie Rouse, Fresno St…round 7-UDFA

FB–TE–Kyle Juszczyk, Harvard…round 5-6

Josh Boyce, TCU….round 6-7
G—JC Tretter, Cornell…round 5-6 (started as a TE, moved to OT, projected as a guard)
OT–David Quessenberry, San Jose…round 5-6 (then "redshirt" him for a year to work on overall strength)
