Many dynasty leagues were chomping at the bit to complete their rookie drafts immediately after the 2024 NFL Draft. I’m more of an advocate for giving it some time. Let the draft wash over you, and allow the dust to settle.
Before I dive into my ramblings, I want to cover the basics of this fantasy football mock draft exercise. This is a 12-team half-point superflex draft in which you need one quarterback, two RBs, three WRs, one TE, one superflex, one flex, one kicker and one team defense.
"Busts? Talk about busts??? You kiddin' me? Busts?" Sorry, I'm doing my best to imitate the infamous Jim Mora "playoffs?" press conference moment. Is it too early to talk about busts? It probably is since so much can happen between now and the end of summer when most fantasy drafts occur.
Is it ever really "way too early" for anything fantasy football? Not in my mind, but that's what we'll call this sleeper breakdown. Even as the dust has yet to settle after the 2024 NFL Draft, it's time to evaluate who's already getting slept on.
The 2024 NFL Draft has already brought us twists and turns and Rounds 2 and 3 during Day 2 should be no different. We watched in real-time as the Falcons pulled a fast one on everyone by taking Michael Penix Jr. at No. 8. The Broncos followed that up with their own shocker by nabbing Bo Nix at No. 12.
This is it. A day away from the start of the 2024 NFL Draft.
The 2024 NFL Draft is just a couple days away and here, I'm providing my top 100 big board.
What's the recipe for a dynasty stash? Inquiring fantasy football minds want to know!
Ahead of the 2024 NFL Draft, you might be sipping the Kool-Aid on a few players about to have their fantasy value blown up. An easy example from last year was Atlanta’s Tyler Allgeier, who was coming off a respectable rookie campaign where he posted 1,035 rushing yards and three scores on 210 carries. Was it foreseeable that the Falcons would select Bijan Robinson? Maybe, maybe not.
What makes a prospect a guard or center instead of a tackle? Presumably, one might assume that the “best” linemen are always tackles, and guards and centers are the best of the rest. That’s not the case.
