Each division has a few. Here's my list of those fighters that may be somewhat overlooked at first, but has potential to be a champion someday....broken down by divisions in the two major orgs.
BW: Dominick Cruz (if it wasn't for the accident I would say Will Ribeiro as well)
FW: Raphael Assuncao, Wagnney Fabiano
LW: Spencer Fisher, Joe Lauzon
WW: Dong Hyun Kim, Yoshiyuki Yoshida
MW: Alan Belcher, Rousimar Palhares
LHW: Luiz Cane, Krzysztof Soszynski
HW: Junior Dos Santos, Pat Barry
These are just my opinions. What are yours?

Your criteria doesn't really mesh with some of your choices, as some who you've named are very well known.
Here are mine, though (again, maybe not fulfilling your criteria exactly, but more who I feel aren't being talked about too much, but who I feel will go a long way):
LW: Grey Maynard
WW: Rumble
MW: Maia
LHW: Machida (joke, couldn't think of anyone I rate)
HW: Brett Rogers
