    Packers quarterback Jordan Love was among the Fantasy football breakouts last season, so he is on everyone's radar heading into Fantasy football 2024. Love has plenty of weapons to work with in the passing game and the Packers added running back Josh Jacobs to improve their rushing attack. It is often difficult to build on a breakout season, so there are concerns that Love could wind up being one of the 2024 Fantasy football busts. Where does Love land in the 2024 Fantasy football rankings?

    Texans quarterback CJ Stroud is also coming off a breakout season of his own, finishing just outside the top 10 in Fantasy scoring at his position. Houston added Stefon Diggs and Joe Mixon to its roster this offseason, so should you target Stroud during your 2024 Fantasy football draft prep? 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: Saints running back Alvin Kamara. he has been one of the most productive running backs for Fantasy owners in recent years, especially in PPR leagues. However, Fantasy managers seem to be scared of Kamara's lack of touchdown production in 2023, which saw him finish with just six.

    Despite his red zone struggles, Kamara led all running backs with a whopping 6.62 targets per game last season. He is averaging 8.4 yards per reception in his career and has finished with at least 75 catches in five of his past seven seasons. Kamara is being picked outside of the top 50 in 2024 Fantasy football drafts, according to the latest Fantasy football ADP 2024. SportsLine's model, however, projects him to outperform De'Von Achane (second-round ADP), Josh Jacobs (third) and James Cook (third).

    Another sleeper that SportsLine's Fantasy football rankings 2024 have identified: Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin. The veteran posted top-20 wide receiver finishes in 2021 and 2022 before falling to WR29 in 2023, but he still had respectable numbers. He caught 83 passes for 1,024 yards on 130 targets, ranking inside the top 25 at his position in all three categories.

    The biggest reason for his Fantasy decline was touchdown regression, as his two receiving touchdowns were his fewest since his rookie season (2017). Godwin remained heavily involved in Tampa Bay's offense though, so there should be some positive touchdown regression in 2024. SportsLine's model ranks him ahead of wide receivers like Calvin Ridley, Christian Kirk and Jayden Reed, making him a Fantasy football sleeper at his current ADP.
