Colts’ Anthony Richardson headlines our 2024 all-breakout team

The middle to late rounds of fantasy football drafts is prime time for finding players who could potentially vault into the top tier in much the same way Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua did last season. Uncovering those hidden gems often can be the difference between winning a fantasy league title or falling just short.

CHEATSHEET: Fantasy rankings, auction values by position

Here are some of this season’s top breakout candidates who could dramatically outperform their average draft positions (ADPs from all August drafts, courtesy of NFFC) and why they could be an asset to your team:

QUARTERBACK

Anthony Richardson, Indianapolis Colts (ADP: 61, QB 6): Showed explosive playmaking ability as a rookie in 2023, but his season was cut short by injury after four incomplete appearances. With a year of experience under his belt, he has receiving weapons, excellent rushing ability, and he’s in a system designed for him to excel.

RUNNING BACK

Isiah Pacheco, Kansas City Chiefs (ADP 29, RB 11): With likely career-high totals in touches, yardage and touchdowns ahead, he has a legit chance to ascend into top-5 territory at the position.

WIDE RECEIVER

Jameson Williams, Detroit Lions (ADP: 103, WR 46): After a strong offseason, the third-year pro is poised for an efficiency-driven breakout. A great offensive line should give QB Jared Goff plenty of time to throw, allowing Williams to get deep for big plays.

TIGHT END

Dalton Kincaid, Buffalo Bills (ADP: 57, TE 5): Following a promising rookie year, Kincaid has the tools and opportunity to challenge Sam LaPorta and Travis Kelce as fantasy’s No. 1 tight end.

KICKER

Jake Moody, San Francisco 49ers (K 7): Should kick fewer PATs (61) and more FGs (25) than last year based on the team’s changing offensive profile.

DEFENSE/SPECIAL TEAMS

Philadelphia Eagles (D/ST 10): They’re just one year removed from elite sack production. Now, their 3-level talent is guided by vaunted defensive coordinator Vic Fangio.
