Let’s see what he forecasts this year with our 2024 Preseason Pro: Jody Smith. — BREAKOUT — Isiah Pacheco (RB) Kansas City Chiefs Identifying feature backs on good offenses is key to building winning fantasy rosters. With Jerick McKinnon gone, Isiah Pacheco has a clear path to a three-down role in one of the NFL’s most potent offenses. And it’s a role we already know Pacheco can thrive in. In his sophomore season, Pacheco saw a big boost in usage. Particularly as a receiver where he reeled in 44-of-49 targets. McKinnon accounted for an additional 32 targets. Nobody else on KC’s roster is a threat to usurp Pacheco on passing downs. Additionally, Pacheco focused all offseason on improving his pass-catching skills. Pacheco already proved he could be an elite producer. Despite missing three games, he posted RB15 fantasy numbers a year ago. However, it was his production in games where he had a workhorse role that is indicative that Pacheco has big-time upside. Including the postseason, Pacheco averaged 19.6 PPR points per game in the nine games he topped 20 touches. That would have ranked as the RB3 in 2023. With only Clyde Edwards-Helaire an unproven Deneric Prince behind him on the depth chart, Pacheco appears to be in line for massive usage. Finally, Pacheco will command most of the red-zone work in an offense that significantly improved in the offseason. Isiah Pacheco checks all the boxes to contend for top-5 fantasy RB numbers. Consequently, he’s my favorite breakout pick this summer. — SLEEPER — Christian Kirk (WR) Jacksonville Jaguars Maybe it’s last year’s second-half collapse that has early fantasy drafters avoiding Jacksonville. That seems like an egregious error. Even in a “down” year for Doug Pederson’s squad, the Jags offense ranked ninth in passing, 13th in scoring, and sixth with 65.5 plays per game. More importantly, Calvin Ridley and his 76/1,016/8 line on 136 targets are gone. The team did add Brian Thomas Jr. and Gabe Davis. However, Christian Kirk is this group’s clear top dog. Before Ridley’s signing, Kirk acted as Jacksonville’s No. 1 option and had a strong connection with QB Trevor Lawrence. Kirk finished as a fantasy WR1 in that role back in 2022. That season, he ranked top-15 in targets (133), grabs (84), yards (1,108), and scores (8). Thomas is a promising prospect but could take time to adjust to NFL-caliber defenses. Davis is the logical choice to replace Ridley as the club’s main deep threat. However, Davis is wildly inconsistent. It all adds up to a surplus of targets for TE Evan Engram and Kirk. Kirk is being selected outside of the top 30 wideouts in early fantasy drafts. He has a proven track record and will overcome the Jags’ tough strength of schedule with sheer volume. I believe Kirk will contend for top-15 fantasy numbers as the club’s No. 1 wideout. He’s one of my favorite sleepers to target in the middle rounds as a WR3. — BUST — De’Von Achane (RB) Miami Dolphins Before you tag @FantasyRecepits and @OldTakesExposed, hear me out. I love De’Von Achane. Think he’s an elite talent. However, I firmly believe he is being drafted above his ceiling. Therefore, he’s a player I expect to have little or no exposure to in 2024. That might not define the traditional “bust,” but the hype on Achane has lifted his ADP inside the top 20 overall. I don’t think people are considering the risk. First, Miami brought back Raheem Mostert. Although Mostert’s role in the passing game declined, he remained the team’s leading rusher. Especially in the red
2024 Green Bay Packers Fantasy Preview

2024 Green Bay Packers Fantasy Preview They know what they’re doing with quarterbacks in Wisconsin. After following in the footsteps of redshirting behind Aaron Rodgers for two years, Jordan Love surpassed Rodgers and led the NFL’s youngest roster to a surprising playoff demolition of the Cowboys. These young Pacers won’t take anybody by surprise in 2024. Love was barely drafted last season. That won’t be the case in 2024 after he posted top-5 fantasy numbers and single-handedly carried many teams to titles with spectacular play down the stretch. Now playing for a lucrative long-term contract extension, Love and his emerging young supporting cast will be hot commodities in fantasy drafts. Speaking of youth, Green Bay added Josh Jacbos to take over as the team’s lead back. Jacobs is over three years younger than Aaron Jones, who was subsequently released. Jacobs also outweighs Jones, giving him more touchdown upside in this explosive offense. Additionally, Jacobs has posted higher PFF receiving grades than Jones in back-to-back seasons, giving Jacobs workhorse potential as an RB1 target. The club also added USC RB MarShawn Lloyd in the third round. Matt LaFleur praised Lloyd’s pass-catching chops and indicated the offense would continue to utilize multiple backs. Green Bay’s youth movement is even more apparent in the receiving corps. Christian Watson is penciled in as the WR1 but must prove he can stay on the field. Watson was limited to nine games with hamstring injuries but has the potential to be a solid value if he slides on draft day due to recency bias. Jayden Reed is just as likely to be the club’s top dog. The second-rounder debuted with 64 grabs for 793 yards and 10 total touchdowns. Starting in Week 7, Reed posted overall WR7 fantasy numbers for the rest of the season. He’s a strong WR2 and can easily be paired with Love in drafts. Romeo Doubs (59/674/8) also made a solid fantasy impact in his sophomore season. However, a lot of that production came from Watson’s absence. Green Bay deployed three-wide personnel on just 63.1% of their snaps, which ranked 18th. Doubs could be over-drafted. LaFleur utilized two tight end sets on 31.6% of Green Bay’s snaps- third-most in football. Tucker Kraft was more effective after missing most of the first half of the season with an ankle injury. Kraft topped double-digit fantasy points in the final four games of the fantasy season. Fellow rookie Luke Musgrave was sidelined with a lacerated kidney during that stretch. Both second-year tight ends will be involved, with Musgrave more likely to emerge as the 1A. This young Packers roster has all the pieces in place to be one of the top-5 fantasy offenses to target in 2024. Quarterbacks QB JORDAN LOVE – SOLID/SAFE PICK It wasn’t the traditional route but Jordan Love’s first season as an NFL starter resulted in a sensational QB5 finish. Love was tremendous down the stretch, posting 27 scores in Green Bay’s final 11 contests. The Packers scored a touchdown on 95% of their goal-to-go situations- a testament to Love’s efficiency. With a deep and versatile group of pass catchers and the addition of first-round OT Jordan Morgan, Love looks poised to continue Green Bay’s elite, long-time quarterback legacy. The Packers are also projected to make the playoffs, which bodes well for Love’s 2024 prospects. It’s also fairly easy to build a Packers stack in most drafts. ADVICE: Top 10 option with safe floor. Running Backs RB JOSH JACOBS – SOLID/SAFE PICK It was no surprise to see Josh Jacobs’s efficiency fall off a cliff after leading the NFL with 393 touches in 2022. Jacobs saw a 28.5% decline in yards per carry and plummeted from 90 missed tackles to just 28. Additionally, Jacobs missed the final four games of the season with a quad injury. Jacobs won’t be asked to do as much with the Packers but Green Bay offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich had glowing remarks about Jacobs’s versatility as a runner, receiver, and protector. Expect fewer touches for Jacbos, but he should rebound on a team with a far superior offense and quarterback. ADVICE: Borderline RB1 who should rebound. RB MARSHAWN LLOYD – FANTASY HANDCUFF Many NFL Draft analysts ranked MarShawn Lloyd as a top-3 running back in this class and his landing spot could hardly be better. The Packers love using multiple backs and Lloyd will fit right in as the change-of-pace option behind Josh Jacobs. Lloyd is an elusive runner with excellent breakaway ability and burst. He ranked third in FBS in PFF’s Elusive Rating in 2023 while averaging a healthy 1.22 yards per route run as a receiver. Lloyd’s profile is similar to Aaron Jones and it wouldn’t be a shock to see him have a significant role right away. ADVICE: Excellent mid-to-late-round sleeper who could see a fantasy-relevant role immediately. RB AJ DILLON – LOW POTENTIAL A solid mid-round sleeper target last summer, Dillon plodded his way to a career-worst 3.4 yards per carry and only cashed in two of his 10 carries inside the five-yard line. Through four seasons, his elusiveness and yards after contact have eroded. With the signing of Josh Jacobs and the drafting of MarShawn Lloyd, Dillon no longer has a viable path to a weekly role. Dillon didn’t draw much interest in free agency and returned to Green Bay where. he’ll have an uncertain role. ADVICE: Dillon has no viable path to touches in Green Bay’s backfield and can be ignored on draft day. Wide Receivers WR JAYDEN REED – SOLID/SAFE PICK Jayden Reed turned heads in his rookie season as the Packers’ go-to slot receiver. Even without a full-time role, he was a magnet for targets, boasting a 25% target rate per route run and 2.06 yards per route (27th). Reed topped all Packers wideouts with 10.6 points per game and 10 touchdowns. Impressively, he finished as a top-12 WR in 33% of his contests, placing 12th, and ranked fourth in fantasy points per snap. Reed has clearly built a rapport with QB
