Fantasy Football: Yahoo Fantasy’s must-draft players for 2024

The team at Yahoo Fantasy is determined to ensure you have a successful fantasy football season. That success (hopefully) begins right at the start of your fantasy drafts. Here, our team identifies five of their “must-draft” players in 2024.

As a longtime resident of Pacheco Island, Kansas City’s featured back has found his way onto most of my rosters. I’ve had Pacheco ranked as a first-round back for months. He was a massive and obvious offseason winner, as the Chiefs never made a significant addition to their backfield.

However, that is in no way reflective of their respective talents. Odunze was just as pristine a prospect as those two.

Odunze is a value at WR38, and a guy I’ll bet ends up being the WR2 on this offense, at worst, by the end of the season. — Matt Harmon

It took a while for the Chiefs to trust Rashee Rice last year, but he was a central part of the run to a championship. Over his final 10 games (playoffs included), Rice posted a juicy 69-780-4 line; over a full season, those numbers would rank top five at the position.
