The Jets' Tyler Conklin finished eighth among tight ends in receptions (58) and 12th in receiving yards (552) last season, but his zero touchdowns led to a TE20 finish in the Fantasy football TE rankings. New York had poor quarterback play throughout the year, which should improve with veteran Aaron Rodgers back under center this season. Conklin and wide receiver Garrett Wilson are the top targets in the offense, so both could be 2024 Fantasy football sleepers. Breece Hall will continue to be near the top of the 2024 Fantasy football RB rankings and one of the top players overall in the 2024 Fantasy football rankings regardless of position as a workhorse in the offense. If you're looking for 2024 Fantasy football advice, be sure to check out the 2024 Fantasy football cheat sheets from the proven computer model at SportsLine.
Last year, the model accurately predicted that Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle would fail to live up to his Fantasy football ADP. Waddle's 2023 Fantasy football ADP was 34.86 overall and he was the 11th receiver off the board on average. He'd go on to notch a 1,000-yard season but only had 72 receptions with four touchdowns and he'd finish as the No. 34 Fantasy football wide receiver in CBS Sports PPR leagues.
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 projections update multiple times daily, so you're always getting the best Fantasy football advice and the latest Fantasy football tiers.
Now, SportsLine has simulated the entire NFL season 10,000 times and released its latest Fantasy football cheat sheets 2024 and draft advice, along with its top Fantasy QB, WR, RB and TE picks.Head to SportsLine now to see them.
Top 2024 Fantasy football QB rankings
Here's a look at SportsLine's top three 2024 Fantasy football QB picks:
1. Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills: Allen has posted four consecutive 4,000-yard passing seasons, giving him the highest Fantasy football floor at his position. He showcased his ceiling last year, racking up a career-high 15 rushing touchdowns. Allen has now rushed for 53 touchdowns in the first six seasons of his career, which are the most ever by a quarterback in that amount of time.
2. Jalen Hurts, Philadelphia Eagles: The 26-year-old finished as the QB2 in Fantasy scoring last year, even though his average dropped from 25.6 to 21.9 Fantasy points per game. His passing yardage and his yards per attempt also dipped, but he provided tremendous rushing upside with 15 touchdown runs and 605 rushing yards. Hurts' owners rely more on his rushing numbers than Allen's owners, which is why the model has Allen ahead of Hurts.
3. Lamar Jackson, Baltimore Ravens: Jackson is coming off his second MVP season, throwing for 3,678 yards and 24 touchdowns last season. He maintained his elite rushing numbers as well, finishing with 821 rushing yards and five more scores. Jackson is surrounded by playmakers and should post another quality Fantasy campaign in his second year with offensive coordinator Todd Monken.See more top QBs here.
Top 2024 Fantasy football RB rankings
Here's a look at SportsLine's top three 2024 Fantasy football RB picks:
1. Christian McCaffrey, San Francisco 49ers: McCaffrey would have been the model's RB1 whether Aiyuk was back or not, but continuity in the San Francisco offense should mean great things for McCaffrey. The 28-year-old scored more than 100 points more than any other RB in PPR formats last season in part due to playing in arguably the best offense in the NFL. McCaffrey scored 21 touchdowns (14 rushing, seven receiving) with at least one score in 13 of 16 games and that consistency makes him the clear RB1 for the model.
2. Breece Hall, New York Jets: Hall was RB2 in Fantasy football with arguably the worst quarterback play in the NFL last season. The Jets were also riddled with injuries, which allowed defensive coordinators to focus the majority of their attention on slowing down Hall. And most of them still weren't successful in that. Now with Aaron Rodgers taking over at quarterback, there should be significantly more open space and scoring opportunities for Hall, making him a top option for 2024 Fantasy football lineups.
3. Saquon Barkley, Philadelphia Eagles: Barkley was the man with the Giants, which has its positives and negatives for Fantasy football. The positives include heavy usage but the negative to that is defensive coordinators will spend all week trying to contain you. Insert Barkley into an offense with Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith, now you have to worry about more than Barkley. The 27-year-old has finished as a top 10 RB on a points-per-game basis in back-to-back seasons and joins the best offense he's ever played in and the model expects that to significantly boost his 2024 Fantasy football value.See more top RBs here.
Top 2024 Fantasy football WR rankings
Here's a look at SportsLine's top three 2024 Fantasy football WR picks:
1. CeeDee Lamb, Dallas Cowboys: With the drama of will or won't Lamb play this season removed after signing a four-year, $136 million extension, any doubt of Lamb missing weeks over money is gone. He was the No. 1 scoring non-quarterback in PPR formats last season after leading the NFL in receptions (135) and ranking second in receiving yards (1,749). He's the top option for Dak Prescott by a wide margin, so he should receive a huge target share again this season for a top NFL offense.
2. Tyreek Hill, Miami Dolphins: Hill led the NFL in receiving yards (1,799) and touchdowns (13) while averaging more than 100 receiving yards per game for the second straight season. The 30-year-old averaged 112.4 receiving yards per game last season and wasn't doing so with boom-or-bust performances. Hill had at least 75 receiving yards in 12 of 16 games last season and after posting back-to-back seasons of at least 1,700 receiving yards, there's no signs of him slowing down.
3. Amon-Ra St. Brown, Detroit Lions: Reliability is one of St. Brown's biggest appeals as well as the Lions wideout had at least 90 yards in 11 of 16 games last year. He's the clear WR1 in the Detroit passing attack as he had at least nine targets in 11 contests as well. The Lions have a favorable schedule in terms of environment, playing 14 of their 17 games indoors, and Jared Goff has performed much better indoors than outdoors, which would translate into better opportunities and production for St. Brown as well.See more top WRs here.
Top 2024 Fantasy football TE rankings
Here's a look at SportsLine's top three 2024 Fantasy football TE picks:
1. Travis Kelce, Kansas City Chiefs: Kelce might have failed to meet lofty expectations last season, but he is still the TE1 heading into the 2024 season. He caught 93 passes for 984 yards and five touchdowns in 2023, despite dealing with injuries throughout the campaign. It was the first time since 2015 that he came up short of 1,000 receiving yards, and his huge postseason suggests a turnaround this year.
2. Sam LaPorta, Detroit Lions: The Iowa product burst onto the scene as a rookie last year, catching 86 passes for 889 yards and 10 touchdowns en route to a TE1 Fantasy finish. It will be difficult for him to match his touchdown production from last year, but he could easily improve on his receiving yards in one of the league's top offenses. LaPorta has tremendous upside as a young player, which is why he sits only behind Kelce in the model's rankings.
3. Mark Andrews, Baltimore Ravens: The veteran missed significant time last season, finishing with 45 receptions for 544 receiving yards and six touchdowns in 10 games. Andrews suffered a serious leg injury, but he was still able to finish as a top-15 tight end. He has been an elite tight end for years, so an injury is the only thing his owners should be overly concerned about.See more top TEs here.
