Fantasy football: Where to draft Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Rachaad White

Analyzing Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Rachaad White’s 2024 fantasy football ADP and where to target him in fantasy drafts.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Buccaneers selected RB Rachaad White in the 3rd round of the 2022 NFL Draft out of Arizona State. He took over the lead role in Tampa Bay’s backfield last season, touching the ball over 330 times. The efficiency though was not where you’d like it to be for a workhorse, rushing for just 3.6 yards per carry. Below, we look at Rachaad White’s 2024 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.

White heads into his 3rd season with the Buccaneers under coach Todd Bowles and new OC Liam Coen. The Bucs are expected to take a slight step back as sportsbooks are pegging them at a 7.5-win total. The 25-year-old White should be entering his prime as a running back, but with rookie RB Bucky Irving joining the mix, competition for touches could be fierce. Still, White remains a key piece in Tampa Bay’s offense for 2024.

Rachaad White’s ADP: 29.21

(ADP data courtesy of MyFantasyLeague.com; last updated at time of this publishing – ADPs continually change as more drafts occur)

White’s 29.21 ADP puts him in the range of the 3rd to 4th round depending on the size of the league. He has the best ADP on the Buccaneers, a few slots ahead of WR Mike Evans (31.61).

Among all NFL running backs, White’s ADP puts him 12th at the position, behind Miami’s De’Von Achane (28.13), Kansas City’s Isiah Pacheco (22.27) and Baltimore’s Derrick Henry (20.23). Seattle’s Kenneth Walker III (31.10) and Green Bay’s Josh Jacobs (33.61) are 13th and 14th, respectively.

Where should you draft White?

White had a standout season a year ago, finishing with over 1,500 scrimmage yards and 9 TDs. He ended up 4th in fantasy points among running backs, thanks in part to a stellar 91.4% catch rate — best in the league among players with 50+ catches.

White handled nearly 20 touches per game and kept improving throughout the season. After a slow start, he averaged 100.1 scrimmage yards and scored 8 times over his last 10 games. From Weeks 8-16, he was on fire, averaging 19.7 fantasy points per game.

Despite this strong performance, he’s currently ranked as a 2nd-tier back in fantasy rankings. Some experts doubt he can keep up the pace with QB Baker Mayfield getting more comfortable with WRs Evans and Chris Godwin. However, given White’s solid finish and role in the offense, he could still be a great fantasy pick for the upcoming season.

Fantasy football: Where to draft Carolina Panthers WR Diontae Johnson

Analyzing Carolina Panthers WR Diontae Johnson’s 2024 fantasy football ADP and where to target him in fantasy drafts.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

INTRO (about 60-100 words)

WR Diontae Johnson gets a fresh start in Carolina after 5 seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He averaged 78 receptions, 873 yards and 5 touchdowns per season. Johnson gets a chance to be the alpha dog in this receiving core and provide 2nd-year quarterback Bryce Young with a veteran target. Below, we look at Diontae Johnson’s 2024 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.

Johnson enters his 6th season with the Panthers at 28 years old and should remain a reliable target in 2024. Now playing under coach Dave Canales — previously the Buccaneers offensive coordinator — Johnson can benefit from Canales’ balanced attack. Though the Panthers are expected to improve, they’re still projected to struggle this season. Despite this, Johnson’s experience and consistency make him a solid option, performing close to his peak value in his prime season.

Diontae Johnson’s ADP: 85.48

(ADP data courtesy of MyFantasyLeague.com; last updated at time of this publishing – ADPs continually change as more drafts occur)

Johnson’s 85.48 ADP in redraft leagues puts him in the range of the 8th to 11th round depending on the size of the league. His ADP ranks 1st on the Panthers, ahead of RB Chubba Hubbard (113.12) and TE Ja’Tavion Sanders (118.67).

Among all NFL wide receivers, Johnson’s ADP puts him 40th at the position, behind the Green Bay duo of Jayden Reed (85.32) and Christian Watson (81.77) and Kansas City’s rookie Xavier Worthy (80.49). Chicago rookie Rome Odunze (88.33) is 41st, followed by fellow rookies Ladd McConkey (93.32) of the Chargers and Jacksonville’s Brian Thomas Jr. (96.32).

Where should you draft Johnson?

Johnson’s last season was a mixed bag, but he still has plenty of upside. Injuries limited him to 13 games, and his targets, receptions and yards have dipped over the past few seasons. But let’s be real — playing with QBs Kenny Pickett, Mitch Trubisky and Mason Rudolph isn’t exactly a recipe for fantasy success.

Despite that, Johnson flashed his potential late last season, scoring 4 touchdowns in the last 6 games and averaging 15.8 yards per catch. He even carried that momentum into the playoffs.

On the plus side, he posted a career-best 14.1 yards per reception last season, making up for his end zone drought the previous year (0 TDs). However, his yardage per game and catch percentage have taken a hit recently.

With WR Adam Thielen getting older and no other standout wideouts on the Panthers, Johnson has a chance to shine. He’s still has that deep-ball ability, and if nothing else, he proved last season that he can be a playmaker.

If you’re looking for a WR with upside, Johnson could be a sneaky good pick in 2024.

Fantasy football: Where to draft Arizona Cardinals RB James Conner

Analyzing Arizona Cardinals RB James Conner’s 2024 fantasy football ADP and where to target him in fantasy drafts.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

Arizona Cardinals RB James Conner is coming off his best season as a pro. The two-time Pro Bowler enters his 8th NFL season at age 29 following his first 1,000-yard rushing season. He averaged a career-high 5.0 yards per carry in route to 1,040 yards and 7 rushing TDs. Below, we look at James Conner’s 2024 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.

Entering the new season, he wants to make his 2023 campaign the baseline for production for the rest of his career. His high-volume use will make him an intriguing fantasy option.

James Conner’s ADP: 51.64

(ADP data courtesy of MyFantasyLeague.com; last updated at time of this publishing – ADPs continually change as more drafts occur)

Conner’s 51.64 ADP in redraft leagues makes him an early 5th-round pick in 12-team leagues. His ADP places him 49th among all offensive players, behind Houston QB C.J. Stroud (47.73) and Philadelphia WR DeVonta Smith (43.36), and just ahead of Cleveland WR Amari Cooper (52.01) and Detroit RB David Montgomery (52.02).

Among all NFL running backs, he is 18th, behind Buffalo’s James Cook (40.56), Houston’s Joe Mixon (39.71) and New Orleans’ Alvin Kamara (34.48). Conner is just ahead of Montgomery, New England’s Rhamondre Stevenson (57.07) and Chicago’s D’Andre Swift (61.17).

Where should you draft Conner?

Conner gives you high RB1 potential (who doesn’t remember his 18-TD season in 2021-22 for the Steelers?) but comes with a history of injuries. He has never played a full season and missed 4 games each of the last 2 seasons.

But when he is in the lineup, he is a high-volume back for an offense that loves to run the ball (No. 4 in rushing offense last season). He has the ability to give you extra value in PPR leagues but RB Emari Demercado is the Cardinals’ 3rd-down back. Plus, it remains to be seen how much 3rd-round rookie Trey Benson out of Florida State will cut into Conner’s carries.

But Conner is a legitimate workhorse and you can count on high usage and production. He scored touchdowns in 5 straight games to end the season and had three 100-yard games in that span.

Don’t reach for him because of the missed games. But you won’t be disappointed if you get him in the 4th round or later. He will give you great value.

Fantasy football: Where to draft Seattle Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III

Analyzing Seattle Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III’s 2024 fantasy football ADP and where to target him in fantasy drafts.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

Seattle Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III has been a true workhorse since being selected in the 2nd round of the 2022 NFL Draft from Michigan State with over 200 carries in each of his 2 seasons. There is concern because his yard per carry dipped from his 1st season to year 2 and that there will be a new offense scheme installed in Seattle this season. Below, we look at Kenneth Walker III’s 2024 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.

Walker’s role in 2024 could change with new Seattle coach Mike Macdonald and rookie OC Ryan Grubb, whose past college offenses were big on passing. The former Washington Huskies OC has indicated a more balanced approach with the Seahawks, so Walker could get more chances to run. Even with this potential uptick, keep in mind Walker has a 41.8% chance of injury, so staying healthy will be key. With new faces on the offensive line and a fresh playbook, Walker could be a solid pick if things break his way.

Kenneth Walker III’s ADP: 31.10

(ADP data courtesy of MyFantasyLeague.com; last updated at time of this publishing – ADPs continually change as more drafts occur)

Walker’s 31.10 ADP puts him in the range of the 2nd to 4th round depending on the size of the league. He has the best ADP on the Seattle Seahawks.

Among RBs, Walkers’s ADP puts him 13th at the position, behind Kansas City’s Isiah Pacheco (22.27), Miami’s De’Von Achane (28.13) and Tampa Bay’s Rachaad White (29.91) and ahead of Green Bay’s Josh Jacobs (33.61) and New Orleans’ Alvin Kamara (34.48).

Kenneth Walker III’s 2023-24 stats

Carries | rushing yards: 219 | 905

Rushing touchdowns: 8

Receptions | receiving yards: 29 | 259

Receiving touchdowns: 1

Where should you draft Walker?

Walker is being drafted as RB17 (No. 44 overall) in PPR leagues, which makes him a solid RB2 option. Last season, Walker had 219 carries for 905 yards and 8 TDs. While he averaged 4.1 yards per carry, he really shined on 2nd downs with an average of 4.7 YPC.

The Seahawks’ run game wasn’t great last year, ranking 27th in rushing yards and 31st in rush attempts per game. With Grubb now calling the plays as the offensive coordinator, we might see some changes. Grubb’s been known for boosting passing games, but it’s hard to imagine the Seahawks running game getting much more work than it did last season.

Walker will once again be sharing the backfield with rookie RB Zach Charbonnet, who had a decent rookie year with 108 carries for 462 yards and 1 TD. Even with Charbonnet around, Walker should get a good share of the workload. Keep an eye on the Seahawks’ Week 10 bye week—it might be a key time for any adjustments.

Walker’s current draft spot makes it tough for him to outshine his ADP, but he’s a reliable RB2 pick. With playmakers like WR Tyler Lockett, WR DK Metcalf, and WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba around, Walker’s role as a consistent mid-range RB2 should continue into 2024.

Fantasy football: Where to draft San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle

Analyzing San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle’s 2024 fantasy football ADP and where to target him in fantasy drafts.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle has been among the most consistent fantasy football producers at the tight end position since being drafted in 2017 out of Iowa. He is coming off of his 3rd 1,000-yard season and there are no signs of his slowing down in this high powered 49ers offense. Below, we look at George Kittle’s 2024 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.

He enters 2024 coming off of core-muscle surgery, which is concerning knowing his injury history. Kittle has missed 15 games in the past 4 seasons due to various issues.

Despite this, Kittle is still a top-tier TE when he’s on the field. He led the position in yards per route and had a career-best 11.3 yards per target last year. With QB Brock Purdy, WR Deebo Samuel, WR Brandon Aiyuk, and RB Christian McCaffrey all back, Kittle should stay productive. Even if Purdy’s stats regress a bit, Kittle is still a great fantasy pick.

George Kittle’s ADP: 60.23

(ADP data courtesy of MyFantasyLeague.com; last updated at time of this publishing – ADPs continually change as more drafts occur)

Kittle’s 60.23 ADP in redraft leagues places him in the range of the 4th to 6th round, depending on the size of the league. His ADP puts him at 4th on the 49ers behind McCaffrey (1.88), Samuel (30.64) and Aiyuk (41.19).

Among tight ends, Pitts’ ADP puts him 5th at the position, behind the Detroit Lions’ Sam LaPorta (35.22), Arizona’s Trey McBride (52.01) and Baltimore’s Mark Andrews (52.22). He’s ahead of Jacksonville’s Evan Engram (60.26) and Buffalo’s Dalton Kincaid (63.25).

Where should you draft Kittle?

Kittle had a pretty solid 2023. He topped 1,000 receiving yards (1,002) for the 1st time since 2019 and set a career high in yards per reception (15.7), which was the best among tight ends with 30+ catches. He also ranked 8th overall in that stat.

On the flip side, his TD total dropped from 11 in 2022 to just 6 last season, and 3 of those came in 1 game against the Dallas Cowboys. Kittle’s season was a bit of a rollercoaster — he had 6 games with 4 or more receptions, but also had 10 games with 3 or fewer catches, unlike his more consistent 2022.

In the playoffs, Kittle was hit or miss. He had a great game against the Green Bay Packers, but was pretty quiet in the NFC Championship and the Super Bowl.

With the 49ers’ offense packed with talent, Kittle’s numbers might not skyrocket in 2024. Still, he’s a solid fantasy pick. He played over 80% of the snaps in 13 of 16 games last season and was 2nd on the team in targets (90). His catch percentage (72.2%) and yards per target (11.3) show he’s still making the most of his chances.

Kittle might not always be super consistent, but he’s a reliable TE1 in fantasy drafts. His high ceiling and steady production make him worth considering.

Fantasy football: Where to draft LA Rams RB Blake Corum

Analyzing LA Rams RB Blake Corum’s 2024 fantasy football ADP and where to target him in fantasy drafts.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

LA Rams RB Blake Corum was a 3rd-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft out of Michigan. He rushed for more than 1,200 yards in his junior and senior years and was an All-American. Below, we look at Blake Corum’s 2024 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.

Corum is expected to play a big part in the Rams offense in 2024. A threat both rushing and receiving, the rookie is worth a look in terms of fantasy value.

Blake Corum’s ADP: 107.82

(ADP data courtesy of MyFantasyLeague.com; last updated at time of this publishing – ADPs continually change as more drafts occur)

Corum has an ADP of 107.82 in redraft leagues, which puts him in the range of the 10th to 12th round, depending on the size of the league. His ADP is lower than his RB teammate Kyren Williams (20.83).

Among RBs, Corum’s ADP puts him 37th at the position, behind Jerome Ford (Cleveland Browns, 93.92), Jaylen Warren (Pittsburgh Steelers, 95.31), Zack Moss (Cincinnati Bengals, 95.70) and Chase Brown (Cincinnati Bengals, 96.57) and ahead of Trey Benson (Arizona Cardinals, 110.41).

Where should you draft Corum?

Corum’s fantasy value may be a mixed bag this season due to his backup position behind Williams, although he possesses too much talent to be kept on the Los Angeles bench.

He averaged 5.5 yards per carry in his college career while eclipsing 1,000 yards in 2 of his 4 years. He also can be utilized in the passing attack. In his senior season, he had 16 receptions for 117 yards, which could be a reason for him to see more playing time.

Draft Corum in the 11th round or later in 10-team leagues. Williams has been spectacular which will put Corum in a tough spot. He will have low value during an initial fantasy draft, but he is a player who could be more valuable as the season progresses.

Fantasy football: Where to draft Atlanta Falcons TE Kyle Pitts

Analyzing Atlanta Falcons TE Kyle Pitts’ 2024 fantasy football ADP and where to target him in fantasy drafts.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

Falcons TE Kyle Pitts had huge expectations coming into the league when he was selected 4th overall in the 2021 NFL Draft out of Florida, but he was hamstrung by former coach Arthur Smith’s offense. Pitts has averaged just 50 catches and 683 yards per season with a total of 6 TDs in his 3 seasons. Below, we look at Kyle Pitts’ 2024 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.

Pitts is set for a potential breakout in 2024 under new offensive coordinator Zac Robinson and with Kirk Cousins as the Falcons’ QB. Cousins’ arrival brings a significant upgrade at the position over last year, which should boost Pitts’ production. With Robinson’s pass-heavy approach from his time with the LA Rams, Pitts should plenty of opportunities. The 23-year-old is entering his prime, making him an exciting fantasy option this season.

Kyle Pitts’ ADP: 66.51

(ADP data courtesy of MyFantasyLeague.com; last updated at time of this publishing – ADPs continually change as more drafts occur)

Pitts’ 66.51 ADP in redraft leagues places him in the range of the 5th to 7th round, depending on the size of the league. His ADP puts him at 3rd on the Falcons behind RB Bijan Robinson (5.82) and WR Drake London (31.13).

Among tight ends, Pitts’ ADP puts him 8th at the position, behind Jacksonville’s Evan Engram (60.26), San Francisco’s George Kittle (60.23) and Buffalo’s Dalton Kincaid (63.25) and ahead of Dallas’ Jake Ferguson (81.54) and Las Vegas’ Brock Bowers (90.35).

Where should you draft Pitts?

Pitts could be a great pick if you’re holding off on drafting a tight end early. The Falcons plan to use him at both WR and TE, which should give him some unique opportunities this season. While his production has been down since his rookie year, things are looking up with Cousins now at QB and a new OC.

Cousins has a solid track record with tight ends, like T.J. Hockenson, and even though he’s coming off an Achilles injury, he could still help Pitts bounce back in 2024.

Pitts is currently being drafted as TE7, around the 61st overall pick. If Cousins stays healthy, Pitts could easily outperform that spot with 80+ catches, 1,000+ yards, and a few TDs. The Week 12 bye might be a bit inconvenient, but Pitts is still a great option if you’re looking for some serious upside at tight end. Expect him to get back to his rookie form this season.

Fantasy football: Where to draft Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London

Analyzing Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London’s 2024 fantasy football ADP and where to target him in fantasy drafts.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

WR Drake London was drafted 8th overall by the Atlanta Falcons in the 2022 NFL Draft. The prototypical wideout (6-foot-4) has yet to produce a 1,000 yard season, but his quarterback play has been sub-par at best. Expectations are high this season with a Pro Bowl caliber triggerman in QB Kirk Cousins throwing him the rock this season in Atlanta. Below, we look at Drake London’s 2024 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.

London heads into his 3rd season with a major QB upgrade and a new OC in Zac Robinson, who comes from a pass-heavy LA Rams system, London should see plenty of opportunities and with the Falcons expected to contend for the NFC South title, the 23-year-old is primed for a breakout season in 2024.

Drake London’s ADP: 31.13

(ADP data courtesy of MyFantasyLeague.com; last updated at time of this publishing – ADPs continually change as more drafts occur)

London’s 31.13 ADP in redraft leagues puts him in the range of the 3rd to 4th round depending on the size of the league. His ADP ranks 2nd on the Falcons, only behind RB Bijan Robinson (5.82).

Among WRs, London’s ADP puts him 13th at the position, behind the San Francisco 49ers’ Deebo Samuel (30.64), New Orleans Saints’ Chris Olave (28.75) and Rams veteran Cooper Kupp (26.29). London is ahead of Tampa Bay’s Mike Evans (31.61 and Houston Texans receivers Nico Collins (33.85) and Stefon Diggs (37.61).

Where should you draft London?

London is shaping up to be a strong fantasy pick for 2024. With the Falcons offense revolving around London, Robinson and TE Kyle Pitts, London stands out as the go-to receiver. Cousins joining the team adds a boost to London’s deep-ball opportunities, which should pay off nicely.

What makes London even more appealing is his favorable schedule, facing the 4th-easiest strength of schedule for WRs this season. The only minor downside is his Week 12 bye, but it’s not during the fantasy playoffs, so it’s manageable.

Despite the bye, London’s potential for a breakout season is too good to pass up. Chase the upside, take advantage of the schedule, and draft London with confidence early in your draft.

Fantasy football: Where to draft Atlanta Falcons RB Bijan Robinson

Analyzing Atlanta Falcons RB Bijan Robinson’s 2024 fantasy football ADP and where to target him in fantasy drafts.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

Atlanta Falcons RB Bijan Robinson had a solid rookie season after being selected as the 8th overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, finishing just 24 yards short of a 1,000-yard rushing season. Below, we look at Bijan Robinson‘s 2021 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.

Robinson is expected to take another big step in his development in 2024 and ideally will become a top-5 RB in the league. The dual-threat power back is intriguing in terms of fantasy value.

Bijan Robinson’s ADP: 5.82

(ADP data courtesy of MyFantasyLeague.com; last updated at time of this publishing – ADPs continually change as more drafts occur)

Robinson has an ADP of 5.82 in redraft leagues, which puts him in the range of the 1st to 2nd round, depending on the size of the league.

Among RBs, Robinson’s ADP puts him 2nd at the position behind only Christian McCaffrey (San Francisco 49ers, 1.88) and in front Breece Hall (New York Jets, 6.14), Jonathan Taylor (Indianapolis Colts, 11.41), and Saquon Barkley (Philadelphia Eagles, 12.13).

Where should you draft Robinson?

Robinson’s fantasy value should get a boost this year with the arrival of QBs Kirk Cousins and Michael Penix Jr., who was drafted with the 8th pick in this year’s NFL Draft.

Robinson will become even more of a threat on the ground now that he has experience at the pro level and will also become a bigger threat in the passing game, which adds tremendous value when drafting him. With an offense that includes WR Drake London and TE Kyle Pitts, Robinson will play a key role on the team.

Draft Robinson in the 1st round as soon as McCaffrey is off the board. He’s good for 1,100 yards and 10 TD, an expected jump from his rookie year stats. He’s even more valuable in PPR leagues because of how often he’s targeted.

Fantasy football: Where to draft Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins

Analyzing Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins’ 2024 fantasy football ADP and where to target him in fantasy drafts.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins has been solid in 12 NFL seasons. Selected in the 4th round of the 2012 NFL Draft, he is a 4-time Pro Bowler and will be captaining his 4th team. Below, we look at Kirk Cousins‘ 2024 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.

Entering 2024, he is expected to continue his fine career, mentor a young QB and guide the Falcons to a playoff berth. The veteran signal-caller is intriguing in terms of fantasy value.

Kirk Cousins’ ADP: 124.66

(ADP data courtesy of MyFantasyLeague.com; last updated at time of this publishing – ADPs continually change as more drafts occur)

Cousins has an ADP of 124.66 in redraft leagues, which puts him in the range of the 12th to 14th round, depending on the size of the league. His ADP is lower than his QB teammate Michael Penix Jr.’s (115.01).

Among QBs, Cousins’ ADP puts him 24th at the position, behind Matthew Stafford (Los Angeles Rams, 122.41), Justin Herbert (Los Angeles Chargers, 121.40), Bo Nix (Denver Broncos, 120.39), Penix Jr. and Aaron Rodgers (New York Jets, 110.47).

Where should you draft Cousins?

Cousins’ fantasy value is peculiar this season due to the Falcons’ NFL Draft move by taking Penix with the 8th overall pick. Cousins penned a 4-year, $180 million contract with Atlanta over the offseason before the pick and will be the starter.

The vet will be throwing to an average receiving corp that is headlined by WR Drake London. However having TE Kyle Pittsand RB Bijan Robinsonwill also beef up the options. Robinson’s ability to run will open the field for the offense to move the ball.

Draft Cousins before Penix Jr. While it is unclear how Atlanta will approach the QB situation, it is simply paying Cousins too much to ride the pine. When healthy, he’s good for 4,000-plus yards and 30-plus TDs.
