| The 2024 NFL Draft will arrive sooner than you think, and now is the time to start acquainting yourself with the incoming draft class. If you're eager to discover the tiers that some of the top prospects fall into from a Fantasy perspective, our FFT team has you covered. We will offer a comprehensive view of the upcoming Fantasy stars through our scouting reports, starting now and continuing through the month of April. Additionally, we continued our position projections this week, with Jamey Eisenberg sharing his thoughts on the wide receiver and tight end positions heading into 2024. |

Caleb Williams NFL Draft Profile
|
| There are few prospects in the 2024 draft class as talented as Caleb Williams, and if you'd like to know more about how he projects to the NFL, Dave Richard provides a thorough breakdown of the presumptive No. 1 overall pick. In this scouting profile, you'll find a few interesting nuggets related to Williams' upbringing and high school career, Dynasty and Fantasy outlook, his strengths and weaknesses as a player, advanced stats, and more. Dave also provides a very unique player comparison for Williams that I absolutely loved. |
| |
| There are a few landing spots for Williams that have been ballyhooed for quite a while, but it's hard to ignore how well he'll fit in Washington following the Kliff Kingsbury hire. Kingsbury served as USC's offensive assistant in 2023 and will be the Commanders offensive coordinator in 2024. Williams has played in this offense dating back to his high school days, and it would be great to see him have the opportunity to make the jump to the NFL in an offense he's familiar with. |

| 2024 Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Projections |
| Heath Cummings continues to sift through his position projections for 2024, and there are currently a few wildcards at the wide receiver position. As of early February, Tee Higgins and Marquise Brown emerge as the best potential free agents on the market. Tyler Boyd may also be on his way out of Cincinnati. |
| |
| It's challenging to project pending free agents, but Heath does a wonderful job ranking potential undrafted free agents (UDFAs) if a reunion with their current team appears likely or if the player is under contract and there's a high probability that they will remain with the same team next season. Check out Heath's Wide Receiver Projections to see his list in its entirety. |

| 2024 Fantasy Football Tight End Projections |
| Our FFT team has been bullish about a changing of the guard at tight end as Heath Cummings continues to advocate for the likes of Trey McBride and other young Fantasy studs at the position. It's daunting to consider just how significant of a year McBride could have with consistent quarterback play throughout an entire season. Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray played just eight games in 2023, and as a result, McBride averaged 14.8 PPR Fantasy points per game in the second half of the season. |
| |
| McBride commanded a 27% target share when Zach Ertz went down with an injury, and he's poised to receive just as many targets in 2024. However, if the Cardinals do end up selecting Marvin Harrison Jr. in the 2024 NFL Draft, McBride could see his target shares dip slightly. Typically, an offense can accommodate one dynamic receiver (especially a rookie) and an exceptional tight end. If the Cardinals can achieve a balance similar to Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce in Kansas City, that would undoubtedly be ideal for fantasy managers everywhere. Be sure to check out Heath's full 2024 Fantasy Football Tight End Projections list to get ready for your next Fantasy draft. |
