Overrated NFL Players in 2024

Hollywood Brown (WR – KC)

I don’t have a ton of faith in Hollywood Brown at this stage of his career. Brown has seen his yards per route run fall in each of the last four seasons. Last season, among 81 qualifying wide receivers, he ranked 62nd in yards per route run and 48th in first downs per route run. With Xavier Worthy getting healthier by the day and Rashee Rice‘s suspension still a big question mark to hit in 2024, Brown could easily be the fourth option in this passing attack. – DBro

Zamir White (RB – LV)

It seems like bad process to draft Zamir White based on the question, “Who else is going to get carries for the Raiders?” OK, maybe there’s not a great deal of excitement over Raiders newcomer Alexander Mattison or sixth-round draft pick Dylan Laube. I’m nevertheless reluctant to draft White based on four good games at the end of last season. White has never been much of a pass catcher, and he was never asked to handle an especially big rushing load during his three seasons at the University of Georgia. Drafting White as an RB2 is a leap of faith I’m not ready to make. — Pat Fitzmaurice

Alvin Kamara (RB – NO)

Even if we try and dismiss any questions about the Saints’ offensive line, I have bigger concerns with Alvin Kamara. His once prolific tackle-breaking juice has seemingly dried up. Last year, among 49 qualifying backs, he ranked 35th in explosive run rate, 40th in missed tackles forced per attempt, and 48th in yards after contact per attempt (per Fantasy Points Data). Snaps and volume fueled him. If Kendre Miller is healthy and ready to go this year, Kamara could see a dramatic difference in his role in 2024. – DBro

Rachaad White (RB – TB)

Rachaad White and Kamara are like the Spider-Man GIF. White’s rocket fuel last year was gobs and gobs of volume, as he ranked fourth in snap share, seventh in opportunity share, and fourth in weighted opportunities. The big problem is that he was incredibly inefficient, with that volume sitting at 42nd in missed tackles forced per attempt, 40th in explosive run rate, and 45th in yards after contact per attempt (per Fantasy Points Data). If Bucky Iriving can work his way into a consistent role in the weekly gameplan, White’s fantasy value could take a big hit this year. – DBro
