Uncovering sleepers in fantasy football isnt easy with so many players seeking and finding much of the same information.So its an advantage to consider sleepers not just hidden stars but as players who should outperform their projected fantasy draft positions.Be bold and take a chance, and you could find yourself with true difference-makers who can propel your fantasy team to greater heights in 2016.---WENDELL SMALLWOOD (RB, Eagles)Ryan Mathews has played 16 games just once in six seasons, and current backup Kenjon Barner is too small to take over as a featured runner if Mathews gets hurt again. Smallwood has been slowed by a preseason injury in his rookie year, but he is versatile and will be ready to contribute when called on during the regular season.---CHRIS THOMPSON (RB, Redskins)He is the teams best pass-catching running back, and the Redskins will be throwing often this year. Matt Jones is already having preseason performance and injury issues, and Thompson could end up being the only trustworthy running back on the roster, especially in point-per-reception formats.---JAY AJAYI (RB, Dolphins)Miami added Arian Foster, but he is a definite health risk. Ajayis preseason stock is falling because of the Foster addition, but at some point he will be back as a starter for the Dolphins and he should get a lot of work as a primary ball carrier.---SPENCER WARE (RB, Chiefs)He scored six times last year after Jamaal Charles went down with a knee injury, and could be in line to vulture some touchdowns this season as the Chiefs manage their true No. 1 running back. Should Charles go down again, Ware should be the preferred top option over Charcandrick West.---ELI ROGERS (WR, Steelers)Rogers is back after his 2015 season was ruined by a foot injury. An undrafted free agent, Rogers is pushing the struggling and more-ballyhooed Sammie Coates for his spot on the depth chart. Rogers is looking good in the preseason and has the promise to contribute in a potent passing game.---BRUCE ELLINGTON (WR, 49ers)Someone has to step forward to catch passes for the Niners, and that may not be Torrey Smith often enough. He is miscast as a top wide receiver on an NFL team and will frequently be matched up against a top cover cornerback or extra defensive attention. If Ellington can finally avoid injuries this year, he could emerge as a needed playmaker for San Francisco.---MIKE WALLACE (WR, Ravens)Wallace has been seemingly lost ever since he left Pittsburgh, but Wallace could be reborn in Baltimore. Joe Flacco throws very well downfield, a skill that seemed to be lacking for Wallaces past QBs, Ryan Tannehill and Teddy Bridgewater. The Ravens desperately need quality performers at WR, and Wallace has a great opportunity to seize here.---CHRIS HOGAN (WR, Patriots)As he did with Danny Woodhead and Wes Welker, Bill Belichick (or someone close to him) has raided the roster of a divisional opponent to pluck a player who can fit perfectly into the New England offense. Hogan is a big, nifty target who can vault quickly up the Patriots WR depth chart and become a quality statistical producer.---TYROD TAYLOR (QB, Bills)Taylor threw for just 20 TDs last year, but he also rushed for 598 yards and four scores. T-Mobile has the coolest nickname in the NFL and the potential to be a top 10 Fantasy quarterback. He should throw more TD passes this year with Sammy Watkins and Robert Woods healthy along with a rebound season from TE Charles Clay. Taylor should improve as a pocket passer and he is a dual threat with some true fantasy upside.---TYLER HIGBEE (TE, Rams)Most veteran Fantasy analysts never recommend rookie tight ends, but Higbee can be a notable exception. He is a converted wide receiver and he may have quite an opportunity to contribute in a Los Angeles passing game that seems to be devoid of quality targets. Higbee has already showed off the skills to be an effective possession receiver on key downs in the preseason. Hell go undrafted in many leagues, but consider taking him in the final round as a flier.---This column was provided to The Associated Press by the Fantasy Sports Network, http://FNTSY.com .

Now, with Game 6 set for Fenway Park and an 8:07 p.m. ET first pitch, the Detroit Tigers face the unenviable task of having to beat the Boston Red Sox twice, on the road, to advance to the World Series. TOKYO -- An independent panel commissioned by the Japanese Olympic Committee has found nothing illegal in a payment made to a Singapore consulting firm in connection with Tokyos bid to host the 2020 Summer Games.A report by the panel released Thursday said a $2.8 million Singapore dollar (then $2.3 million) payment to the consultancy Black Tidings for bid planning services and lobbying advice in 2013 was legitimate.The panel concluded that Tokyo bid executives had no knowledge of the link between the head of Black Tidings, Ian Tan Tong Han, and the son of former IAAF president Lamine Diack, who is facing corruption charges in France.The investigation concludes that the contents and execution process of the payment are not in violation of any Japanese law, lawyer Yoshihisa Hayakawa, who headed the panel, told a news conference. Any violation of the IOC code of ethics also could not be found.The panel, consisting of two lawyers and a certified public accountant, said Tan deserved the payment based on detailed reports he provided the committee that demonstrated his ability to lobby effectively and provide useful information for the bid committee.The findings are in line with what we expected, and we are relieved, said JOC president Tsunekazu Takeda, who headed the bid committee.The report noted, however, that the payment was twice the average of what the Tokyo bid committee paid to other consultants. Hayakawa said the team also did not receive an exact accounting of how Tan spent the money.In addition, the investigation team was unable to speak directly to Tan, Diack or his son, Papa Massata Diack, in part due to the ongoing French corruption investigation and didnt have access to data stored in computers issued by the committee that had been destroyed when the bidding process ended. The team largely relied on documents that had been kept by former committee members.Personally, I regret we could not interview them. If we could have met Mr. Tan, especially, Im sure we could have examined what exactlly happened in this case, Hayakawa said.ddddddddddddSuspicion about the Black Tidings payment arose in the course of the French investigation into Diack, once one of the most influential men in sports, and his son, who is wanted in France on bribery, money laundering and corruption charges.Tan is one of Papa Massata Diacks close friends. They were so close that Tan named his child, born in 2014, Massata, according to a World Anti-Doping Agency investigation into Russias athletic doping scandal.According to French prosecutors, the payment is thought to have been transferred from Japan to the Singapore account of Black Tidings in two installments in July and October 2013.The Japanese investigation also found the payment to Tan was made in two installments. The first contract for U.S. $950,000 was signed in July 2013 for Tans lobbying and consulting work, and the remainder of the money was transferred to him three months later as a bonus for winning the bid, the report said. The contract did not include a specific reference prohibiting bribery.Details of the payment procedures were not shared among the committee executives, and the lack of communication might have invited suspicions, the report said. It also noted that future bidding activity for international athletic events should pay more attention to transparency and compliance to stricter rules.Tokyo was chosen in September 2013 as the Olympic host, and the elder Diack, then an International Olympic Committee member, had a vote and influence over blocs of other votes as a high-profile figure in the organization.The widening of the French inquiry into the 2020 Olympic bidding process has put heavy pressure on Tokyo organizers and the IOC, which has sought to distance itself from the FIFA and IAAF corruption scandals and insisted that it had cleaned up since a bid scandal over the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics.
