The Jaguars have two mainstays in the 2024 Fantasy football rankings, Trevor Lawrence and Travis Etienne Jr., returning, but the wide receiver room has changed. Jacksonville selected Brian Thomas Jr. with the No. 23 overall pick in the NFL Draft and signed Gabe Davis from the Bills to pair with Christian Kirk at receiver. Evan Engram, who finished at TE2 last year, returns, so what should you expect from them Jacksonville when making 2024 Fantasy football WR rankings? Engram finished as the TE2 in PPR formats last season and became a focal point of the offense with at least 10 receptions in three of his last five games. Can you expect that production from Engram when forming a 2024 Fantasy football strategy? Tight end is often a top-heavy position, so where should Engram fall in 2024 Fantasy football TE rankings?

Last year, the model accurately predicted that Buccaneers running back Rachaad White was being dramatically undervalued. White was coming off the board in the seventh round on average in 12-team PPR leagues, but he emerged as Tampa Bay’s workhorse ball carrier and provided significantly more value than expected, finishing No. 4 at his position. White rushed for 990 yards and six touchdowns while adding 64 catches for 549 yards and three more scores as a receiver. Anybody who followed the model’s advice scored an every week starting running back in the middle rounds.
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 projections update multiple times daily, so you’re always getting the best Fantasy football advice.

Top 2024 Fantasy football sleepers
One of the 2024 Fantasy football sleepers the model is predicting: Patriots running back Antonio Gibson. After piling up 701 touches over his first three seasons in Washington, Gibson finished with a career-low 113 touches for the Commanders in 2023. However, he was heavily involved in their passing attack, setting new career-highs in targets (59), receptions (48) and receiving yards (389).
Now, he’ll head to New England, where he’ll serve as a change-of-pace to Rhamondre Stevenson, who has missed 10 games in his first three seasons. In PPR formats, the model deems Gibson worth a late-round flier, predicting that he finishes as a top-40 Fantasy football running back despite the fact that he’s the 50th player off the board at the position on average.

Top 2024 Fantasy football breakouts
One of the 2024 Fantasy football breakouts the model is predicting: Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams. The No. 12 overall pick in 2022 saw his rookie season start late due to a college injury and was then suspended to start last season. However, he’s flashed game-breaking ability including in the NFC Championship Game when he had 42 yards and a touchdown on the ground, plus 25 yards and a score through the air.
Detroit moved on from starting wideout Josh Reynolds, with no notable receiver additions through the draft or free agency. That paves the way for a much bigger role for Williams, who should see nothing but single coverage when sharing the field with Amon-Ra St. Brown and Sam LaPorta. Detroit ranked second in passing yards last season, so the targets will be there, and the model has identified Williams as a Fantasy football 2024 breakout.

Top 2024 Fantasy football busts
As for players to avoid, the model lists Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels as one of its 2024 Fantasy football busts. The No. 2 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft comes in with lofty expectations, especially in Fantasy football 2024 due to his ability to be a dual-threat option. However, the success of CJ Stroud finishing as the QB7 on a points-per-game basis for quarterbacks who played at least 15 games may have owners expecting too much. Stroud is the exception, not the rule.
Stroud was the QB12 overall last season. Even with the prevalence of rookie quarterbacks starting right away, Kyler Murray was the only other rookie quarterback over the last seven seasons to finish as a top-15 Fantasy football quarterback. Daniels is being selected inside the top 15 at his position, which is a major risk given the history of rookie quarterbacks. The model has Daniels listed outside its top 15 quarterbacks and feels the risk doesn’t outweigh the reward, leaving the No. 2 overall pick as a Fantasy football bust based on his 2024 Fantasy football ADP.
