The 2024 Fantasy Football season is on the way and the Fantasy Football Today team has drafted their initial player outlooks for the entire player pool heading into training camp. Things will change on the injury front, in free agency and possibly on the trade market, but the Fantasy Football team led by Dave Richard, Jamey Eisenberg, Heath Cummings and Dan Schneier have created player outlooks based on 2024 projection, June ADP (average draft position) and where these players have come off the board in our mock (and real) drafts through May and June. We’ll use the FFT consensus PPR rankings (Jamey, Dave and Heath’s rankings) to go player-by-player for the first round (12-team leagues) of your drafts.
*These consensus rankings are updated through June 10th.*

The previous time McCaffrey had over 400 touches in a year was 2019, and he followed it up with two injury-plagued seasons. The 417 touches were also his most in a season ever. The best way to safeguard your investment in McCaffrey would be to add his backup, presumably Elijah Mitchell, with a pick in Round 9 or later.” – Dave Richard
“Lamb became one of the best wide receivers in the NFL last year and we’re buying a repeat. We aren’t opposed to drafting him as early as 1.02 in a PPR redraft league and he’s an easy top-five pick in a Dynasty startup as well. It’s rare that a player’s volume and efficiency spike like this, but Lamb saw 25 more targets in 2024 and somehow produced…
