2024 Fantasy Football Rankings – Running Backs

Last Updated: July 26


Top 10 | 11-20 | 21-40 | 41-75 |

Other Positions: QB | RB | WR | TE | DraftSharks’ Projections
41. Trey Benson, RB, Cardinals. Bye: 11.

Trey Benson is a talented back who could have a chance to have a big workload in 2024 if James Conner gets hurt.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 590 rushing yards. 16 catches. 90 receiving yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 118.

42. Gus Edwards, RB, Chargers. Bye: 5.

Gus Edwards will share the workload with JK Dobbins on the Chargers. It’s not a great situation.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 570 rushing yards. 9 catches. 50 receiving yards. 6 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 118.

43. Jaleel McLaughlin, RB, Broncos. Bye: 14.

Jaleel McLaughlin flashed last year, but he’ll need Javonte Williams to get injured in order to be relevant.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 680 rushing yards. 24 catches. 130 receiving yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 115.

44. Ty Chandler, RB, Vikings. Bye: 6.

Ty Chandler replaced the pedestrian Alexander Mattison and was much better, but he’ll be playing behind Aaron Jones now. On the bright side, Jones tends to get hurt often.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 580 rushing yards. 28 catches. 150 receiving yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 112.

45. Chase Brown, RB, Bengals. Bye: 12.

Chase Brown had some impressive performances down the stretch. He could eat into Zack Moss’ workload.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 500 rushing yards. 24 catches. 180 receiving yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 112.

46. Chuba Hubbard, RB, Panthers. Bye: 11.

Chuba Hubbard stole the starting running back job from Miles Sanders last year. Unfortunately for Hubbard, the Panthers used a second-round pick on Jonathon Brooks.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 600 rushing yards. 32 catches. 200 receiving yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 104.

47. Javonte Williams, RB, Broncos. Bye: 14.

Cecil Lammey, one of the top NFL team reporters in the business, said recently that Jaleel McLaughlin has been the top running back for the Broncos so far this offseason. More notably, he questioned if Javonte Williams would even make the final roster. Yikes! Lammey should be trusted more than anyone when it comes to the Broncos, so this is crushing for Williams’ fantasy stock.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 480 rushing yards. 27 catches. 160 receiving yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 102.

48. Tyler Allgeier, RB, Falcons. Bye: 12.

Tyler Allgeier’s biggest ally, Arthur Smith, is gone. His production will take a hit.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 450 rushing yards. 12 catches. 100 receiving yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 99.

49. Jaylen Wright, RB, Dolphins. Bye: 6.

Miami traded next year’s third-round pick for Jaylen Wright. The explosive back will be stuck in a crowded depth chart to start his career, but given what Miami traded, the coaching staff figures to have big plans for him.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 450 rushing yards. 15 catches. 100 receiving yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 98.

50. Elijah Mitchell, RB, 49ers. Bye: 9.

Elijah Mitchell should be owned in all formats because he would immediately become a high-end RB2 in the event of a Christian McCaffrey injury.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 350 rushing yards. 10 catches. 60 receiving yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 95.

51. Ray Davis, RB, Bills. Bye: 12.

There isn’t much behind James Cook on Buffalo’s roster, so he’ll have opportunities as a rookie to complement Cook.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 350 rushing yards. 20 catches. 120 receiving yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 91.

52. Khalil Herbert, RB, Bears. Bye: 7.

Khalil Herbert had some nice performances late in the year, but the front office didn’t seem to care because it signed D’Andre Swift.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 380 rushing yards. 16 catches. 90 receiving yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 90.

53. Tyrone Tracy, RB, Giants. Bye: 11.

Tyrone Tracy may become the starting running back for the Giants this season, given the lack of talent at the position.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 400 rushing yards. 12 catches. 60 receiving yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 89.

54. Samaje Perine, RB, Broncos. Bye: 14.

Samaje Perine is Denver’s pass-catching back. He needs lots of players ahead of him to get injured in order to be relevant.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 220 rushing yards. 48 catches. 420 receiving yards. 2 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 86.

55. Keaton Mitchell, RB, Ravens. Bye: 14.

Keaton Mitchell would be an intriguing fantasy player this year if he weren’t coming off a torn ACL.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 320 rushing yards. 10 catches. 70 receiving yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 82.

56. Kendre Miller, RB, Saints. Bye: 12.

Kendre Miller spent most of his rookie campaign being injured. He looked good upon his return, but Alvin Kamara still stands in his way.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 330 rushing yards. 15 catches. 90 receiving yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 80.

57. Tank Bigsby, RB, Jaguars. Bye: 12.

Tank Bigsby will be productive in Jacksonville’s offense if Travis Etienne were to suffer an injury.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 250 rushing yards. 8 catches. 40 receiving yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 78.

58. Braelon Allen, RB, Jets. Bye: 12.

Braelon Allen has been impressive in practice. He may be the RB2 to begin the year.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 230 rushing yards. 24 catches. 150 receiving yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 76.

59. Dameon Pierce, RB, Texans. Bye: 14.

Dameon Pierce lost his job to Devin Singletary, who was a better fit in Houston’s offense.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 350 rushing yards. 10 catches. 80 receiving yards. 2 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 75.

60. Jerick McKinnon, RB, Chiefs. Bye: 6.

Jerick McKinnon is just a receiving back at this stage of his career.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 120 rushing yards. 32 catches. 240 receiving yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 74.

61. Roschon Johnson, RB, Bears. Bye: 7.

Roschon Johnson was impressive at times as a rookie, especially as a receiver. However, he lost any potential in the wake of the D’Andre Swift signing.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 240 rushing yards. 26 catches. 160 receiving yards. 2 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 72.

62. Antonio Gibson, RB, Patriots. Bye: 14.

Antonio Gibson will be used as a receiving back, but he’s unlikely to see many carries in his new home.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 240 rushing yards. 40 catches. 300 receiving yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 72.

63. Kimani Vidal, RB, Chargers. Bye: 5.

Kimani Vidal has some potential despite being a sixth-round pick because the Chargers don’t have much else at the position.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 240 rushing yards. 15 catches. 90 receiving yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 71.

64. Clyde Edwards-Helaire, RB, Chiefs. Bye: 6.

Clyde Edwards-Helaire lost his job to Isiah Pacheco and isn’t very relevant anymore.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 180 rushing yards. 15 catches. 120 receiving yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 68.

65. Alexander Mattison, RB, Raiders. Bye: 10.

Alexander Mattison was a huge bust last year. He’s currently the Raiders’ No. 2 running back.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 65.

66. Eric Gray, RB, Giants. Bye: 11.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 62.

68. Miles Sanders, RB, Panthers. Bye: 11.

Miles Sanders lost his job last year. With Jonathon Brooks added, Sanders’ situation isn’t looking very bright.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 250 rushing yards. 15 catches. 100 receiving yards. 1 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 61.

69. Justice Hill, RB, Ravens. Bye: 14.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Stats: 190 rushing yards. 14 catches. 100 receiving yards. 2 total TDs.
Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 61.

70. Michael Carter, RB, Cardinals. Bye: 11.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 60.

71. Evan Hull, RB, Colts. Bye: 14.

Evan Hull had some upside heading into 2023, but missed the entire year with an injury. With Zack Moss gone, he’s the No. 2 back in Indianapolis.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 60.

72. A.J. Dillon, RB, Packers. Bye: 10.

A.J. Dillon had a golden opportunity to make himself lots of money this past season when filling in for the oft-injured Aaron Jones. He struggled instead.

Projected 2024 Fantasy Points: 52.

73. Kenneth Gainwell, RB, Eagles. Bye: 5.
