Dalton Del Don runs through several players who had hot finishes to the 2023 season, and whether he’s committing to the player for next fantasy football season or not.
Strong finishes to buy in 2024
Breece Hall, RB, New York Jets
Hall led all running backs in fantasy scoring over the final five weeks of the season, averaging more (0.5 PPR) points per game (22.6) over that span than Christian McCaffrey (22.4) did in 2023. Despite seeing early limited snaps coming off knee surgery (he didn’t eclipse 40 in a game until Week 9) and playing for an offense that averaged the fourth-fewest points per game, Hall led all backs in receptions and receiving yards, also leading the league in evaded tackles.
Hall’s dominant finish despite the Jets providing the worst quarterback play in the league reveals fantasy upside that will make him the second back off the board in most 2024 drafts. Given his age, career trajectory and improved 2024 situation, Hall has an argument to be the first overall fantasy pick in 2024.
Jordan Love, QB, Green Bay Packers
Love was a top-three fantasy QB over the last month of the season, when he also established himself as one of the league’s best young quarterbacks. He struggled midseason after a hot start, but Love helped Green Bay finish fifth in EPA/pass despite having the youngest offense in the league. He can run and had the second-most air yards and end-zone targets this season, which is a highly favorable combination for fantasy.
Love proved beyond any doubt he’s the real deal with a near-perfect performance during his postseason debut, and he’ll enter 2024 as a top-12 fantasy option at an absolutely loaded quarterback position.
