    Waiting on a quarterback to build running back and wide receiver depth has been a popular 2024 Fantasy football strategy. However, if you're not pulling the trigger on an upper-echelon quarterback, making sure that you're landing two viable options to stream in your 2024 Fantasy football lineups is critical. Justin Herbert, Kirk Cousins, Deshaun Watson and Matthew Stafford headline quarterbacks who are available in the 10th round or later according to the latest 2024 Fantasy football ADP data. Which of those players has the potential to be among the 2024 Fantasy football sleepers?

    Having a reliable set of live-updated 2024 Fantasy football rankings can help give you an edge as you prepare for your upcoming Fantasy football 2024 drafts. 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 quarterback Derek Carr. After throwing for 35,222 yards and 217 touchdowns in nine seasons with the Raiders, Carr signed with the Saints this offseason and turned in another solid overall stat line. He threw for 3,878 yards and 25 touchdowns with only eight interceptions and finished middle of the pack among starting quarterbacks as QB16 in Fantasy football.

    Now he should benefit from having Alvin Kamara at his disposal for an entire season while Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed give him a pair of capable options at wide receiver. Carr isn't going to give you flash but his consistency should definitely be of value if you're trying to play matchups at quarterback. The model ranks him ahead of rookie Jayden Daniels and Tua Tagovailoa, who are both being drafted at least 40 picks earlier on average.

    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.
