During the second half of last season, Packers quarterback Jordan Love was one of the most efficient passers in the NFL. He completed 70.3% of his passes for 2,150 yards and 20 touchdowns with one interception over his final eight games. That second half earned him a four-year, $220 million extension this offseason. Now, Green Bay and Love’s fans will be hoping he can build off his play late last season and climb the 2024 Fantasy football QB rankings. So where should Love be in the 2024 Fantasy football rankings and what other quarterbacks should be under consideration for your 2024 Fantasy football draft cheat sheets?

With a reliable set of live-updated 2024 Fantasy football rankings, you can make educated decisions at every position. If you’re looking for 2024 Fantasy football advice, be sure to check out the 2024 Fantasy football cheat sheets from the proven computer model at SportsLine.

Last year, the model accurately predicted that Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle would fail to live up to his Fantasy football ADP. Waddle’s 2023 Fantasy football ADP was 34.86 overall and he was the 11th receiver off the board on average. He’d go on to notch a 1,000-yard season but only had 72 receptions with four touchdowns and he’d finish as the No. 34 Fantasy football wide receiver 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 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 and the latest Fantasy football tiers.

Now, SportsLine has simulated the entire NFL season 10,000 times and released its latest Fantasy football cheat sheets 2024 and draft advice, along with its top Fantasy QB, WR, RB and TE picks. Head to SportsLine now to see them. 

Top 2024 Fantasy football QB rankings

Here’s a look at SportsLine’s top three 2024 Fantasy football QB picks: 

1. Jalen Hurts, Philadelphia Eagles: Hurts is coming off a season where he threw for a career-high 3,858 yards and 23 touchdowns last season and also rushed for 605 yards and 15 touchdowns. He’ll look to cut down on the 15 interceptions he threw but without sacrificing aggression, as he ranked third among NFL QBs in air yards per pass attempt (8.7) and fourth in Fantasy points per dropback (0.65).

2. Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills: Allen also rushed for 15 touchdowns last season and threw for 4,306 yards and 29 touchdowns. However, he also battled turnovers (18 interceptions and seven fumbles) and now he’s lost No. 1 receiver Stefon Diggs (traded to Houston). All that being said, Allen has finished as QB1 or QB2 in each of the last four seasons and the model is predicting another strong finish in 2024.

3. Lamar Jackson, Baltimore Ravens: The reigning NFL MVP threw for 3,678 yards and 24 touchdowns with seven interceptions while also rushing for 821 yards and five scores. With Derrick Henry now on the roster to soften up defenses, expect even more big plays in the running game from Jackson and for even more one-on-one looks outside to exploit. See more top QBs here.

Top 2024 Fantasy football RB rankings

Here’s a look at SportsLine’s top three 2024 Fantasy football RB picks: 

1. Christian McCaffrey, San Francisco 49ers: This is a no-brainer choice at No. 1 overall in just about every format. McCaffrey has 3,233 scrimmage yards and 31 touchdowns in 27 games since joining the 49ers and you can pencil him in for 20 touches or more on an almost-weekly basis.

2. Breece Hall, New York Jets: Hall’s status was questionable early in 2023 as he recovered from a season-ending injury during his rookie season and the Jets limited him over the first month of the season, giving him only 37 touches in the first four games. However, he broke out with a 177-yard rushing day against the Broncos and wound up churning out 1,585 scrimmage yards and nine scores. He’s healthy now and should be a focal point of the Jets’ offense.

3. Saquon Barkley, Philadelphia Eagles: After six years in New York ended with him failing to secure an extension, Barkley left the Giants for the Eagles this offseason. Now he’ll be playing behind a much better offensive line than he’s been accustomed to and surrounded by a talented cast of Eagles skill players. He’s produced 2,892 scrimmage yards and 20 touchdowns the past two seasons and he could be in for an even bigger year in 2024 with Philadelphia. See more top RBs here.

Top 2024 Fantasy football WR rankings

Here’s a look at SportsLine’s top three 2024 Fantasy football WR picks: 

1. CeeDee Lamb, Dallas Cowboys: The former Oklahoma star has been consistently improving throughout his professional career, and he finished as the WR1 in Fantasy points per game last season. Lamb finished with more than 100 receiving yards in seven of his final 12 games, including a 227-yard performance in Week 17. He should challenge for the WR1 title again this season, especially since Dallas returns almost the same roster from last year.

2. Tyreek Hill, Miami Dolphins: Hill finished second overall among Fantasy wide receivers last year, averaging just under 20 points per game. He racked up more than 1,700 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns during his age 29 season, so there is nothing to suggest a drop off from Hill this year. Miami’s offense has proven it can provide enough volume for a plethora of Fantasy stars, including Hill and teammate Jaylen Waddle.

3. Amon-Ra St. Brown, Detroit Lions: He finished third at his position last season behind Lamb and Hill, posting 247.5 Fantasy points while averaging 16.5 points per game. St. Brown commanded a 30% target share and a 34% air yards share in one of the league’s best offenses, earning a four-year contract extension for his efforts. He is entering the prime of his career, and SportsLine’s model has him ranked third among wide receivers. See more top WRs here.

Top 2024 Fantasy football TE rankings

Here’s a look at SportsLine’s top three 2024 Fantasy football TE picks: 

1. Travis Kelce, Kansas City Chiefs: The 34-year-old has already made a legitimate case to be considered the greatest tight end of all time, catching 90-plus passes for a sixth straight season in 2023. He signed a two-year extension in the offseason, remaining a focal point of Kansas City’s elite offense. Some Fantasy managers are down on Kelce after he failed to record 1,000 yards last year, but he is still the top player at his position.

2. Mark Andrews, Baltimore Ravens: Andrews has only played in one full season since his rookie year, but he scored one more touchdown in 10 games last year than he did in 15 games the year prior. He continues to be quarterback Lamar Jackson’s first option, averaging 4.5 receptions per game last season. His scoring average per target was nearly three percentage points higher than his career average as well, so his health is the only legitimate concern for his owners.

3. Sam LaPorta, Detroit Lions: He stunned the Fantasy world as a rookie, finishing as the TE1 with 86 receptions for 889 yards and 10 touchdowns. LaPorta averaged 52.3 receiving yards per game, so it is easy to see him improving on those numbers this season. SportsLine’s model needs to see more from him before ranking him ahead of Kelce and Andrews, but LaPorta is already one of the top tight ends in the league. See more top TEs here.
