Before crafting your 2024 Fantasy football draft strategy, be sure to check out the 2024 Fantasy football rankings and 2024 Fantasy football cheat sheets from the proven computer model at SportsLine.

Last year, the model accurately predicted that Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs would carry significantly more value than expected during his rookie season. The result: Gibbs rushed for 945 yards and 10 touchdowns while also catching 52 passes for 316 yards and a score. Gibbs was coming off the board in the middle of the fourth round on average but finished as a top-10 running back in CBS Sports PPR leagues.

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 projections update multiple times daily, so you're always getting the best Fantasy football advice.

Top 2024 Fantasy football breakouts

One of the 2024 Fantasy football breakouts the model is predicting: Raiders running back Zamir White. He played in 17 games last season, finishing with 104 carries for 451 yards and just one touchdown. However, White's workload is expected to increase significantly this season after the Raiders let Josh Jacobs leave via free agency.

That bodes well for White, who averaged 15.2 PPR and 12.9 non-PPR points per game while getting 23.3 touches on average in the final four games of last season. The 2022 fourth-rounder is among SportsLine's top breakout candidates ahead of the 2024 season. In fact, the model predicts that White's game-breaking potential will see him finish with a bigger Fantasy season than other starting running backs like Austin Ekeler, Najee Harris and Aaron Jones. 

Another breakout that SportsLine's Fantasy football rankings 2024 have identified: Bears quarterback Caleb Williams. He was the No. 1 overall pick but unlike many top picks, he'll head to a Chicago offense that is absolutely loaded with playmakers. D.J. Moore and Cole Kmet are both coming off the best seasons of their career and the offense has added Pro Bowlers Keenan Allen and D'Andre Swift as well as first-round pick Rome Odunze this offseason.

That's an embarrassment of riches and Williams is one of the most highly-regarded quarterback prospects of this generation. The 2022 Heisman Trophy winner threw for 10,082 yards and 93 touchdowns while only throwing 14 interceptions during his career. Now the model ranks him as its top-rated rookie quarterback, predicting that he outperforms veterans like Tua Tagovailoa and Deshaun Watson. See which other Fantasy football breakouts 2024 to pick here.
