Fantasy Football Draft Outlook: De’Von Achane, Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle (2024)

Welcome to the grand unveiling of the 2024 Fantasy Football Forecast, a critical juncture for fantasy football fans, marking the end of 2023 with our sights set on next season!

As we reach the zenith of the 2023 season, I’m thrilled to present the latest edition of the 2024 Fantasy Football Forecast. Let’s dive into a few notable names.

2024 Fantasy Football Draft Advice

Miami Dolphins

Raheem Mostert led the Dolphins with 8 carries for 33 yards in the Wildcard Round. De’Von Achane had 6 carries for 9 yards. His 6 targets were a plus, but he only caught 3 balls for 21 yards.

The rookie had 3 touches in the first half of the team’s playoff game. Woof. He played a total of 23 snaps for a 38% snap share. Mostert played 44% of the snaps and only had 2 targets. As I have pointed out in every single version of this article throughout 2023, Mostert has never been an RB that McDaniel has tried to feature in the passing game over either Achane or Jeff Wilson Jr.

Jaylen Waddle returned but was not effective. 5 targets but just 2 catches for 31 yards with 86 air yards.

Tyreek Hill was the target leader, but it came all on one big TD score that was underthrown by his quarterback. 5 catches for 62 yards (53-yard TD catch) on 8 targets.

All the WRs behind Hill/Waddle are free agents, so there’s depth to be boosted in this WR room this offseason. Tagovailoa, Waddle, Mostert and Wilson will all be playing in contract years in 2024.

The team does have potential outs in both Mostert’s/Wilson’s contracts. Wilson could be a cap casualty with a sub $1M dead cap hit versus his $3.3M salary cap hit.

Hill will be at the top of nearly every single fantasy football draft, whereas Waddle will be drafted much later than in 2024 after his worst professional season to date. WR34 overall and WR24 in points per game (11.6). He still managed over 1,000 receiving yards in 14 games but he scored just 4 times. But his 24% target share was still excellent. He also posted his highest yards per route run (6th) and PFF receiving grade of his career (5th). 100% a sharp buy-low candidate as a projected breakout that failed to fire in 2023.
