Quarterbacks like Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen went off the board early in Fantasy football drafts last season. While those stars went on to produce big Fantasy seasons, the best values at quarterback were players such as Jordan Love, Brock Purdy and Jared Goff, who all significantly outperformed their Fantasy football ADP. Now, the hunt is on for the 2024 Fantasy football sleepers who will give owners a big edge in their 2024 Fantasy football rankings. Could quarterbacks like Baker Mayfield, Russell Wilson or Bryce Young be this year's undervalued players in the Fantasy football QB rankings 2024?
Which other players at every position will vastly outperform their 2024 Fantasy football projections? Before crafting your 2024 Fantasy football draft strategy, be sure to check out the 2024 Fantasy football rankings and cheat sheets from the proven computer model at SportsLine.
Last year, the model accurately predicted that Jets running back Breece Hall would significantly outperform his sixth-round Fantasy football ADP in 10-team PPR leagues. The result: Hall rushed 223 times for 994 yards and five scores and was also a dynamic receiver out of the backfield, catching 76 passes for 591 yards and four more scores. He'd wind up finishing as the No. 2 running back in CBS Sports PPR leagues behind only Christian McCaffrey.
The same model has a proven track record providing Fantasy football tips, identifying A.J. Brown as a sleeper in 2020 and nailing Jonathan Taylor's monstrous season in 2021. Additionally, it's called past Fantasy football sleepers like Derrick Henry in 2019, Christian McCaffrey and Alvin Kamara in 2018, and Davante Adams in 2017. Anybody who banked on players like those made a run at their league title.
The model is powered by the same people who generated projections for all three major Fantasy sites, and it beat human experts last season when there was a big difference in ranking. The 2024 Fantasy football PPR rankings and 2024 Fantasy football standard rankings update multiple times daily, so you're always getting the best Fantasy football advice.
Now, SportsLine has simulated the entire NFL season 10,000 times and released its latest Fantasy football rankings 2024, along with plenty of sleepers, breakouts and busts. Head to SportsLine now to see them.
Top 2024 Fantasy football sleepers
One of the 2024 Fantasy football sleepers the model is predicting: Titans running back Tony Pollard. The 27-year-old signed a three-year, $24 million contract with Tennessee this season and will take over for Derrick Henry as the team's primary running back. Tyjae Spears, the Titans' No. 2 running back last season, was second with 100 carries and remains on the roster, but the fact Tennessee spent $8 million annually on Pollard would indicate the organization doesn't see Spears as a go-to backfield option.
Pollard has rushed for more than 1,000 yards in back-to-back seasons. Owners likely expected better production from Pollard last season in Dallas' offense, so there's a dramatic overcorrection in Pollard's 2024 Fantasy football ADP. Brian Callahan enters his first season as Titans head coach after serving as the Bengals offensive coordinator and Cincinnati used Joe Mixon as a bell-cow over his tenure. The model projects a large usage from Pollard and that opportunity makes him a prime candidate as one of the 2024 Fantasy football sleepers.
Another sleeper that SportsLine's Fantasy football rankings 2024 have identified: Browns tight end David Njoku. He is coming off a sensational season in 2023. He finished last season with 81 receptions for 882 yards and six touchdowns, all of which were career-highs.
He was also a standout for Fantasy owners, averaging a career-best 12.6 PPR points per game. Despite that success, Njoku is still being undervalued according to the latest 2024 Fantasy football ADP. SportsLine's model expects Njoku will outperform fellow tight ends like Kyle Pitts, Evan Engram and Jake Ferguson, making him one of the top Fantasy football sleepers to target on draft day.
