When preparing for your fantasy football drafts, knowing which players to target and others to avoid is important. The amount of information available can be overwhelming, so a great way to condense the data and determine players to draft and others to leave for your leaguemates is to use our expert consensus fantasy football rankings compared to fantasy football average draft position (ADP).

The new rookie class around the NFL gets all the attention over the summer. They’re the flashy new pieces for fantasy football, and of course they can be anything. But last year’s rookies aren’t fully formed yet. The players entering their second season aren’t the fancy new thing anymore. That can open up some value in fantasy drafts for players still due to break out, and it can lead to fantasy mistakes for players who had a good first season and turn out to be a mirage. Everyone knows Year 1 to Year 2 is one of the biggest jumps an NFL player can make, but this still happens.

(-110, DraftKings Sportsbook) I am going against our model right off the bat, because I think Drew Thorpe has an excellent chance to pitch six innings Friday. He’s on a streak of five straight starts with at least six innings pitched, which is less important than the number of pitches. Thorpe has thrown at least 88 pitches in four of those five starts and draws one of the best matchups in baseball. The Seattle Mariners lead the league in K rate against righty pitching at 28.6%, and they’re 24th in wRC+, 27th in wOBA, 22nd in ISO and 28th in OPS. There are certainly warts in the profile for Thorps since he jumped AAA entirely, and his 3.03 ERA does not match up with an xFIP of over 5.00. The K rate hasn’t transferred from AA since it’s just 15.4% in the majors but Thorpe can’t get a better spot. We should also give him credit for the 4.4% barrel rate and he still does have a 10.6% swinging-strike rate. The changeup is generating a 38.8% whiff rate and a .239 wOBA allowed and seven of the projected Mariners have a wOBA of under .295 against righty changeups. Even if Randy Arozarena makes his Seattle debut, it wouldn’t move me off of this play.

You Know Fantasy Football… But Do You Know Best Ball?. In fantasy football, Best Ball is a popular format that prioritizes the draft and reduces in-season maintenance. In this structure, you would draft a team just like in regular leagues, usually 18–20 rounds. However, Best Ball’s main difference is its ease of use and the strategic depth of the draft itself.

Dual-threat quarterbacks are among the most coveted players in Fantasy football 2024. Accordingly, Commanders rookie Jayden Daniels could be one of the top 2024 Fantasy football breakouts. Daniels can fill up the stat sheet with his arm and legs and is available later in drafts than other star quarterbacks. He could also round into form by the time the Fantasy playoffs arrive, which would make him one of the top 2024 Fantasy football picks. Should you include Daniels in your 2024 Fantasy football lineups?
