Fantasy football 2024: 11 breakout candidates 

In two career seasons with an ugly hodgepodge of Jets quarterbacks, Garrett Wilson, the 2022 Offensive Rookie of the Year, has finished as the WR21 and WR26 in fantasy. Now, entering 2024, he’s slated as the WR8 in ADP, sometimes in the first round of drafts. What gives?

Aaron Rodgers gives, and he keeps on giving. Over the years, Rodgers’ receivers have averaged 1.92 fantasy points per target, while Wilson has managed just 1.36 points per target under Zach Wilson, Joe Flacco and others. If you instead drop that 1.92 average onto Wilson’s 315 career targets, he would have 604.8 fantasy points — third-most in the league, behind Tyreek Hill and CeeDee Lamb over the last two seasons. Yeah. He’s a stud in the making and a great pick at the 1-2 turn.
