2024 Fantasy Football Sleepers
Sleeper: A draft term for a NFL player that an owner believes is going to have a breakout season. These are usually players who are not rookies, but they can be. For the most part they are not well known NFL players. Usually sleepers are drafted in the middle to late rounds of a draft. From our Fantasy Football Dictionary
We have classified the following players as sleepers for 2024. We will be updating this list throughout the pre-season.
| Name | Pos | Team | Age | Yrs Exp. |
Pos. Rank |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ezekiel Elliott | RB | --- | 31 | 8 | Unranked |
| Fantasy enthusiasts eagerly anticipated who the Cowboys would target in the draft or free agency to replace Tony Pollard. Instead, we got the reunion no fantasy manager wanted. Elliott provided solid value in New England last season after Rhamondre Stevenson was sidelined. But Elliott is a declining asset who no longer creates yards, forces misses, or can break lo...

| Jaleel McLaughlin | RB | DEN | 25 | 1 | Unranked |
| Although he was in on just 18% of Denver's snaps, Jaleel McLaughlin made a strong impression. McLaughlin averaged a robust 5.4 yards per carry and was top-20 in yards after contact per attempt (3.38), yards per route run (1.63), and overall run grade via PFF. McLaughlin also stood out as a big-play threat and was easily Denver's most effective running back on the ... Read More | |||||
| Zack Moss | RB | --- | 28 | 4 | Unranked |
| Zack Moss filled in admirably for Jonathan Taylor last season. He was so effective that he continued to have a weekly role in Indy's offense. Now, it appears that Moss will open the season atop Cincinnati's depth chart after the Bengals shipped Joe Mixon to Houston. Mixon was used as a workhorse, inviting some optimism that Moss could potentially see 250-plus touc... Read More | |||||
| Brian Robinson | RB | ATL | 27 | 2 | Unranked |
| Even though he saw fewer touches in his second season, Brian Robinson was far more efficient. He broke more long runs, forced more missed tackles, and punched in three more scores. The biggest surprise for Robinson was his receiving production. He reeled in 36-of-43 targets and averaged a whopping 10.2 yards per catch with four more TDs. Unfortunately, Austin Ekel...

| Devin Singletary | RB | NYG | 28 | 5 | Unranked |
| Singletary emerged as Houston's primary running back in Week 10. For the remainder of the season (including playoffs) Singletary averaged 18.6 touches and 75.4 scrimmage yards with all five of his touchdowns. Those were solid RB2 numbers during the audition, and Singletary parlayed the opportunity into a three-year 16.5 million deal to replace Saquon Barkley in Ne... Read More | |||||
| Kimani Vidal | RB | LAC | 24 | R | Unranked |
| ADVICE: A superb late-round sleeper, Vidal has excellent pass-catching and blocking potential. This staff raved about his overall skill set and he has a path to contribute immediately. But be prepared to fight for Vidal. He's a popular late-round sleeper target.

Jaylen Warren  |
RB | PIT | 27 | 2 | Unranked |
| With Russell Wilson and Justin Fields, the Steelers offense should be far more competent in 2024. Despite playing second fiddle to Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren still posted overall RB20 numbers last season by being far more productive on a per-touch basis (4th in yards after contact per attempt, 2nd in PFF Elusive Rating). Warren was tied for fifth among all backs w... Read More | |||||
| Zamir White | RB | --- | 26 | 2 | Unranked |
| After Josh Jacobs went down, Zamir White did a solid Jacbos impression, piling up 114.3 scrimmage yards per game in the Raiders' final four. White was the fantasy RB12 in the final month of the season. Meanwhile, Jacobs signed with Green Bay and the Raiders did not sign veteran competition in free agency. White will be given every opportunity to retain the team's ... Read More | |||||
