Top sleepers 2024 the Early list
Here are your top 10 sleepers for 2024:
- Jordan Love
- Jayden Reed
- Tyjae Spears
- Tank Dell
- Drake London
- George Pickens
- Zay Flowers
- Trey Benson
- Malik Nabers
- Blake Corum
Let’s dive into why these guys are great value and solid sleepers to draft for this upcoming NFL 2024 season.
Jordan Love
Young and talented with a ton of upside. Since the recording of this podcast and when I am writing this article, the Packers have signed Josh Jacobs. This team now has a legit run threat to their offense and can really do well this season. They signed Jacobs to a 4-year – 48 million dollar deal. They will use him.
That being said, Jordan Love has a lot of tools at his disposal, including some upside WRs in Jayden Reen and Romeo Doubs. Jordan Love is currently sitting as QB 13 on the consensus ranking, and that screams value for this NFL 2024 season. He had a 32 to 11 TD/INT ratio, which is pretty solid, and he finished in the top 5 in fantasy numbers last season.
I like the value, upside, and safety of drafting Jordan Love this upcoming season. I am sure he is a sleeper based on this value.
Jayden Reed
I had to include the potential WR1 to Jordan Love as well. Jayden Reed is primed for a significant season this year. Seeing over 90 Targets and getting 8TDs last season, he can eat this year. He was also used in the running game and can sneak in a few rushing TDs.
There is competition there for the WR1 spot with Watson and Doubs. Doubs also has a real chance to emerge as the WR 1. Either way, these guys are of great value in drafts and can put up some solid production on your teams. Doubs proved he was the reliable target for Love in the playoffs, and this could hinder the upside of Reed. Either way, I like the fantasy football draft value for this season!
Tyjae Spears
The news also broke after the video that Tony Pollard is signing on to the Titans. This is good news, in my opinion, and I like it. Here’s why:
- Pollard was a backup for years
- Pollard had the starting job last year with Dallas and did nothing special
- Tyjae was drafted in the 3rd round, but the Titans to replace Henry
- Way more upside for Tyjae
- 280 freed-up rushing attempts with Henry gone
While Tony Pollard will be a pest, he’s not that good. The problem is that he got paid a lot, which means he will be used. It is up to Tyjae to earn that starting spot and show he is the superior back to Pollard! I believe he can do that!

Tank Dell
Currently sitting as WR 25 on the consensus, aka the CONSHEEPSUS rankings, Dell can boom in 2024. He was slept on last year and did well when he played. In week 9-11 last year before his injury, he amassed 35 targets and 4tds in those three games! If you got my 16 Rounds draft solution last year, you were able to stash this stud and may be able to keep him this season for value!
The talent of CJ Stroud can inflate Dell’s value and upside. The sky is the limit here. I also like Nico Collins, as he has the height advantage here. Going to be interesting to see how this all unfolds. Either way, they are both value in fantasy football drafts this season!
Drake London
The sky is also the limit here with Drake London this season. Kirk Cousins just signed on with the Falcons, which will massively help London. I am excited to see he has an outstanding QB throwing him the ball, which will result in massive fantasy football production.
He is a sleeper because he didn’t do well last year, and that was all due to bad QB play. Desmond Ridder was terrible, throwing 12 TDs and 12 INTs. A QB makes WRs good, and last year’s performance in Atlanta was a great example of this!
I will draft Drake London every chance I get this season, and I will not hold back from doing so. Kirk Cousins will thrive with Bijan, London, and Pitts in the offense. The Falcons are making significant moves this season!

George Pickens
The Steelers have upgraded their QB position by acquiring Russell Wilson. Their talent will shine around him, and George Pickens is one of the winners in this deal. George always seemed to be complaining about the QB play, and I don’t blame him. Now, with an accurate quarterback under center, we should see more volume and production out of Pickens.
It seems like the TEs and RBs were also suffering due to bad QB play and they will shoot up in value as well with the addition of Russell Wilson. I would say that Wilson himself is a sleeper this year, as he has a chip on his shoulder to do better than he did in Denver.
Zay Flowers
Youth and upside are all in favor of the young and talented Zay Flowers. While I don’t like him having a QB who is pretty much a running back, I cannot ignore that he is the WR1 on the Ravens and will be great draft value for fantasy football 2024.
I would like to see him achieve more than his 858 yards receiving and 5 TDs from last year, and I feel that is possible, as his rapport with Lamar is much better. I see a ceiling limit, but I like the talent and the value in drafts this season. Will I be targeting Zay in drafts in 2024? That depends on what kind of draft value I can get him for.
Trey Benson
Trey is the top RB prospect coming out of the NFL draft. I feel he either lands on the Vikings or the Cowboys. I can’t wait to see where he lands, as I see him contributing to fantasy football in a significant way. He ran a 4.39 at the NFL combine and has all the traits to make him a fantasy football stud!
He will also be at our fantasy sports summit, so you can have a chance to interact with him and ask him questions! You can secure your ticket here and combo it with the 16 Rounds draft solution if you would like! I love Trey Benson, but I can’t wait to see where he lands at the NFL draft.
Malik Nabers
Rookie Wrs did great last year, including Jordan Addison and Tank Dell, to name a few. Malik is one of the top prospects in this year’s NFL draft and could eat if he lands on the right team.
A smooth route runner with explosive speed and great hands makes him a desired WR in fantasy and reality. I also feel he ends up on a good team and could be overlooked by teams like Arizona that will get an earlier pick.
I will monitor him closely to see his landing spots and then his value in fantasy football drafts in 2024.
Blake Corum
While he is shorter at 5’8′, he is very strong and has a low center of gravity. I feel that he will end up on the Chargers possibly and be a major upgrade to Austin Ekeler who will be shipped off I am sure.
I like the talent here, and the guy seems like a really good dude. Landing spot, like all other rookies, is critical to success here.
