    Stacking a quarterback and wide receiver from the same team has become a popular Fantasy football strategy, so is that the way you should attack Fantasy football 2024 drafts? Only one of the top three wide receivers played with a quarterback who finished in the top five at his position last year, so sometimes you can find better success by sticking to your 2024 Fantasy football rankings rather than forcing a stack into your 2024 Fantasy football lineups. Which 2024 Fantasy football stacks should you look, and which quarterbacks or receivers should you just feel comfortable having when starting your 2024 Fantasy football draft prep?

    Fantasy football rankings 2024 can help you identify potential 2024 Fantasy football sleepers capable of outperforming 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 .

    Top 2024 Fantasy football sleepers

    One of the 2024 Fantasy football sleepers the model is predicting: Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp. The 31-year-old pulled off the receiving triple crown in 2021, leading the league in receptions, receiving yards, and touchdown catches en route to winning NFL Offensive Player of the Year honors. Since then, Kupp has battled injuries, playing in only 21 games in the last two seasons combined.

    The model is calling for a bounce back and return to form season for Kupp in 2024. The former third round pick out of Eastern Washington is the model's WR13, but with an ADP of 82.3, the former Kupp is coming off the board in the seventh round on average in CBS Sports fantasy drafts. Kupp is being taken after guys like Mike Evans, DeVonta Smith, and Drake London, who are all projected to finished below him in the fantasy wide receiver rankings at the end of the season.

    Another sleeper that SportsLine's Fantasy football rankings 2024 have identified: Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence. We're not far removed from when Lawrence was considered a can't-miss prospect out of Clemson when he was selected with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. After a tough rookie season, Lawrence has thrown for at least 4,000 yards in back-to-back years and was 10th in passing yards (4,016) last season.

    The Jaguars gave Lawrence another weapon in the 2024 NFL Draft, selecting Brian Thomas Jr. with the No. 23 overall pick. They also signed Gabe Davis to pair with Christian Kirk at wideout and Evan Engram at tight end. The Jaguars opened 8-3 last season before their dismal close and Lawrence clearly missed Kirk, who was out with an injury. Kirk started and finished those first 11 games and outside of a poor showing against the 49ers, Lawrence was the QB12 on a points-per-game basis with Kirk on the field. Lawrence is being selected outside of the top 15 QBs in 2024 Fantasy football drafts and given some of his new playmakers and another year of experience, the model projects a better finish from Lawrence in Year 4.
