The Week 1 NFL odds are full of close games, including Lions vs. Rams (+4.5), Browns vs. Cowboys (+2.5), and Bears vs. Titans (+4) on Sunday. Close games could increase the importance of running backs as you make decisions about your Week 1 Fantasy football picks. Can you trust backs like Joe Mixon, D'Andre Swift, Aaron Jones, Austin Ekeler, Ezekiel Elliott, and Tony Pollard, all of whom changed teams this offseason? Before setting your Week 1 Fantasy football lineups for the 2024 NFL season, you NEED to see the Fantasy football positional rankings from SportsLine's advanced computer model. 

When it comes to ranking players, SportsLine's model beat human experts for the past several seasons, especially when there were big differences in ranking! That could literally be the difference between winning your league or going home empty-handed.

Now the model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, has revealed its latest Week 1 Fantasy football positional rankings.

For Week 1, the model's top three running backs for Sunday and Monday are Christian McCaffrey, Jonathan Taylor and Bijan Robinson. McCaffrey scored 100 points more than any other Fantasy football running back in CBS Sports PPR leagues last year while Taylor led the NFL in rushing yards, scrimmage yards and total touchdowns in 2021. Meanwhile, Robinson had 1,463 scrimmage yards and eight touchdowns as a rookie and should benefit from an improved Atlanta offense in 2024.

The model is also calling for a SHOCKING quarterback you aren't even thinking about to finish in the top five of its Fantasy football rankings! This pick could be the difference between winning BIG and going home with nothing. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is before locking in your lineups.
