Fantasy Football Upside Picks: Jared Goff, Ty Chandler, Jordan Love

Several factors go into building a winning fantasy football team. One of those factors is identifying players with league-winning upside, especially in the later rounds. To help you create an elite fantasy football roster, I have identified one potential league winner for every NFL team.

ADP via Underdog Fantasy

Jared Goff (DET): ADP 125.7 | QB16

The veteran will be one of my highest-rostered players this year because he is a massive draft bargain. Goff was the QB7 in 2023, averaging 17 fantasy points per game. Detroit held onto offensive coordinator Ben Johnson after having one of the top offenses in 2023. Goff averaged 2.1 passing touchdowns and 19.9 fantasy points per game in 12 contests in a dome last season. By comparison, he averaged one passing touchdown and 13.3 fantasy points per game in the five contests outside. The veteran plays only three games outdoors in 2024.

Jordan Love (GB): ADP 98.1 | QB10

Love had multiple doubters heading into his first season as the starter. He began the year on fire, averaging three passing touchdowns and 21.7 fantasy points per game over the first two weeks. After hitting a slump, the former Utah State star proved he is a franchise-caliber quarterback. Love was the QB2 over the final seven contests of the fantasy season, averaging 2.3 passing touchdowns and 21.6 fantasy points per game. The second-year starter has an exciting young core of receiving options, giving him significant fantasy upside.

Ty Chandler (MIN): ADP 144.3 | RB45

Some called Chandler a sleeper candidate earlier this offseason. Unfortunately, the Vikings swapped out Alexander Mattison for Aaron Jones in free agency. However, the veteran running back struggled with multiple injuries last year. Furthermore, Jones will turn 30 during the upcoming season. Chandler averaged 4.9 yards per rushing attempt and a 5.7% explosive run rate over the final four games last year (per Fantasy Points Data) despite facing the top-ranked run defense twice in that span. He is an injury to Jones away from being a top-20 guy.
