Fantasy Football Week 1 projections for 2024: Josh Jacobs breaks out early, plus more sleepers to start
Like seemingly every year, Fantasy football has become a war of attrition. While "replacing" players of that caliber is difficult, their Fantasy managers have no choice but to pick up the pieces and try to make the playoffs with a higher degree of difficulty moving forward. One way to do that is to unearth less rostered players who are projected to perform like starting-caliber players on a weekly basis, and this is the place to find them.
Every week during the NFL season, Heath Cummings shares his weekly Fantasy Football position previews. For the first time, SportsLine members will get exclusive access to his weekly projections that serve as a companion to those position previews.
Below, you can find his projections for every Fantasy relevant quarterback, running back, receiver and tight end in your leagues. Not only do you get statistical projections as well as Fantasy point totals for every player in different scoring formats, but Heath also includes DFS prices and values for helping members build winning DFS lineups each week.
In Week 1, Heath's projections show that the Josh Jacobs era in Green Bay will get off to a roaring start. This projection is likely aided by the Packers' recent transaction placing A.J. Dillon on the injured reserve, projected positive game script and sheer volume. Heath's projections are an excellent resource to help you set your Week 1lineups and find sleepers off your waiver wire if you need that kind of help in a pionch.
You can see Heath's full projections for every position below to start planning your Week 1 roster decisions and building your lineups for the Sunday slate.
