Fantasy Football Draft Values for Every Round
Round 7 – David Montgomery (RB – DET)
The Lions continue to say they plan on running a committee between David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs in 2024, and it makes sense given their abilities mesh well together. Montgomery led the backfield in touches last year with 17.3 per game to Gibbs’s 15.8 and also led the pair with 4.0 evaded tackles per game compared to Gibbs who had 3.5. Gibbs made hay with explosive runs, with a massive 8.88% big run rate, which dwarfed Montgomery’s 3.83%, but because the Lions preferred Montgomery at the goal line it kept Montgomery very fantasy-relevant. The difference in cost between Gibbs and Montgomery shouldn’t be as much as it is.
Round 8 – Jaylen Warren (RB – PIT)
Najee Harris had his fifth-year option declined by the Steelers and it’s easy to see why when you consider his supposed backup ranked second among running backs in explosive play rate last year. Warren was excellent in both the receiving game and rushing game, boasting 89 catches in the last 2 seasons including 74 targets in 2023. The only running backs with more were Breece Hall, Alvin Kamara, Christian McCaffrey, Bijan Robinson and Jahmyr Gibbs. Now Warren plays with the two quarterbacks who led the league in checkdown rate when kept clean in 2023, with Russell Wilson leading the league (19.3%) and Justin Fields not far behind (13.0%). With Harris’s days in Pittsburgh numbered, don’t be surprised if Warren clearly outproduces Harris in 2024.
Round 9 – Jayden Daniels (QB – WAS)
We’ve seen this story before with dual-threat quarterbacks, they simply have the potential to break fantasy football scoring with their high floor from rushing. In 2022 & 2023 combined there were 44 instances of a quarterback scoring more than 30.0 points during the fantasy season and of those 44 instances, 27 (61%) featured a quarterback rushing for five or more attempts. Rushing equals ceiling outcomes and Daniels averaged 11.25 rush attempts per game in his final season, yes, he does take some massive hits, but he never missed games and if he gets injured, your waiver wire has other options.
