The Atlanta Falcons made a major move early in NFL free agency when they signed Kirk Cousins and many owners are hoping that the addition of a veteran quarterback can move the Falcons' still position players up the 2024 Fantasy football rankings. The matter was slightly complicated when Atlanta chose Michael Penix Jr. in the 2024 NFL Draft, but Cousins is still expected to be the opening-week starter barring injury. What can Cousins do for Falcons position players like Drake London, Kyle Pitts and Bijan Robinson and where should you target them during your 2024 Fantasy football draft prep?

Before crafting your 2024 Fantasy football draft strategy, be sure to check out the 2024 Fantasy football rankings and cheat sheets from the proven computer model at SportsLine.
Last year, the model accurately predicted that Jets running back Breece Hall would significantly outperform his sixth-round Fantasy football ADP in 10-team PPR leagues. The result: Hall rushed 223 times for 994 yards and five scores and was also a dynamic receiver out of the backfield, catching 76 passes for 591 yards and four more scores. He'd wind up finishing as the No. 2 running back in CBS Sports PPR leagues behind only Christian McCaffrey.
The same model has a proven track record providing Fantasy football tips, identifying A.J. Brown as a sleeper in 2020 and nailing Jonathan Taylor's monstrous season in 2021. Additionally, it's called past Fantasy football sleepers like Derrick Henry in 2019, Christian McCaffrey and Alvin Kamara in 2018, and Davante Adams in 2017. Anybody who banked on players like those made a run at their league title.
The model is powered by the same people who generated projections for all three major Fantasy sites, and it beat human experts last season when there was a big difference in ranking.

Top 2024 Fantasy football sleepers
One of the 2024 Fantasy football sleepers the model is predicting: Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. The Alabama product was a third-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft and led the Commanders with 797 rushing yards as a rookie despite missing five games.
Robinson came back in 2023 as the No. 1 option in the Washington backfield, but his productivity was often undone by game script, with the Commanders regularly playing from behind. However, he still rushed for 733 yards and five touchdowns while catching 36 passes for 368 yards and four more scores. The Commanders are hoping that the offseason additions of Dan Quinn and Jayden Daniels will help make the franchise more competitive and the model predicts that Robinson finishes as a top-25 running back.
Another sleeper that SportsLine's Fantasy football rankings 2024 have identified: Bears tight end Cole Kmet. Despite playing in a run-first offense with quarterback Justin Fields, Kmet has quietly been a top-10 tight end in each of the last two seasons. Now the expectation is that this will be a much more potent passing offense with the Bears selecting Williams with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Even with more mouths to feed in the Chicago offense (Keenan Allen, Rome Odunze and D'Andre Swift were all added this offseason), Kmet figures to benefit from a more pass-heavy approach. He's the 15th tight end of the board on average right now but the model is predicting that he finishes as TE5 ahead of stars like George Kittle and Evan Engram.See which other Fantasy football sleepers 2024 to pick here.
