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.

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: Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith. The 33-year-old is flying under the radar following a disappointing 2023 campaign, finishing as the QB25 in Fantasy scoring at 15.3 points per game. Smith was one of the top sleepers in 2022 though, throwing for 4,282 yards and 30 touchdowns while completing an NFL-high 69.8% of his passes.
He has one of the top wide receiver groups in the NFL at his disposal in DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Sam Howell is next on Seattle's depth chart, so it is difficult to envision Smith losing his starting job this year. SportsLine's model certainly doesn't expect that to happen, ranking Smith ahead of quarterbacks like Aaron Rodgers and Matthew Stafford, which makes him a Fantasy football sleeper.See which other Fantasy football sleepers 2024 to pick here.
