With NFL minicamps being held throughout the league, NFL depth charts should begin taking shape as we head towards training camp. Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson signed a four-year, $140 million contract extension this week and one of the game’s top receivers will try to prove himself after missing seven games in 2023. Jefferson will be near the top of many 2024 Fantasy football rankings now that his contract situation is settled, but there are plenty of potential 2024 Fantasy football sleepers available later on.
Having a live-updated set of Fantasy football rankings 2024 can help allow you to make the most informed decision no matter when your drafts are held and can also help you identify those players most likely to outperform their 2024 Fantasy football ADP. 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. 
One of the 2024 Fantasy football sleepers the model is predicting: Texans wide receiver Tank Dell. A third-round pick out of Houston in the 2023 NFL Draft, Dell immediately made his presence felt with dazzling plays during OTAs, minicamps and training camp. His playmaking ability translated to early playing time in an emerging Texans offense.
Dell caught 47 passes for 709 yards and seven touchdowns and had three 100-yard games over his first 11 contests before a broken fibula ended his season. He also suffered minor injuries in a shooting in May, but was able to make a full recovery in time for organized team activities late last month. The model ranks Dell as a top-15 wide receiver in a dynamic Houston offense led by C.J. Stroud.
Another sleeper that SportsLine’s Fantasy football rankings 2024 have identified: Bears tight end Cole Kmet. Despite playing in a run-first offense with quarterback Justin Fields, Kmet has quietly been a top-10 tight end in each of the last two seasons. Now the expectation is that this will be a much more potent passing offense with the Bears selecting Williams with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Even with more mouths to feed in the Chicago offense (Keenan Allen, Rome Odunze and D’Andre Swift were all added this offseason), Kmet figures to benefit from a more pass-heavy approach. He’s the 15th tight end of the board on average right now but the model is predicting that he finishes as TE5 ahead of stars like George Kittle and Evan Engram. See which other Fantasy football sleepers 2024 to pick here.
SportsLine is also extremely high on a surprising running back you aren’t even thinking about. The model says this running back is a shocking top-five option ahead of superstars like Jonathan Taylor and Derrick Henry. You can only see who it is, and the 2024 Fantasy football rankings for every player, at SportsLine.
So which 2024 Fantasy Football sleepers should you target? And which running back shocks the NFL with a top-five performance? Visit SportsLine now to get 2024 Fantasy Football cheat sheets for every single position, all from the model that called Breece Hall’s huge season, and find out.
