In the 2024 fantasy football drafts, prospects had their eyes on two prominent rookie WRs, Marvin Harrison Jr. and Nabers. Both have the potential to be immediate impact rookies. Nabers fills a WR need for the Giants, who drafted him with the sixth overall pick in this year’s NFL Draft.

The former LSU Unanimous All-American is an immediate fantasy football starter. He has a knack for making tough catches and his speed presents a big, immediate challenge for NFL defenders. Giants QB Daniel Jones will likely look to his new WR as a frequent top target starting in Week 1. Nabers will get his first NFL draft pick against what could be a vulnerable Minnesota pass defense, so add him to your fantasy football lineup for opening week.

The Tampa Bay WRs should benefit from a favorable matchup against the Washington pass defense. Godwin is an ultra-reliable option for Baker Mayfield who can reel in a decent amount of receptions for fantasy players in PPR formats. Last year, Godwin ranked second among all WRs in Total Route Wins. PlayerProfiler.com’s advanced stat measures when a receiver gets enough distance to be considered open.

Godwin will be a frequent target against the Commanders as a lead receiver to keep the chains moving for the Buccaneers. He is expected to be a solid fantasy stat compiler for Week 1.

Smith-Njigba’s second season is eagerly anticipated by Seahawks fans and fantasy football players alike. As new coordinator Ryan Grubb installs his offense, we should see “JSN” build on his flashes of promise as a rookie. The Seahawks’ 2023 first-round NFL Draft pick should hit the ground running as a fantasy producer in the season opener at Lumen Field against Denver.

Smith-Njigba can challenge defenses at all levels. He can make the key catch on a big down and also slip past coverage to come through with a downfield reception. JSN is an all-around playmaker as a pass catcher and we can look forward to his repertoire of receptions growing in 2024. A season of growth can begin with a quality performance against the Broncos’ pass defense.

During last season’s NFL playoffs, Williams gave us a glimpse of his considerable potential. In the NFC Championship Game against the highly respected San Francisco defense, he rushed for a 42-yard TD and also caught a TD pass. The promising big-play performer is entering his third pro campaign and is coming off an uninterrupted offseason and regular season. Williams can begin to make his case to grab Detroit’s No. 2 WR job by showcasing his electrifying talents in the opener against the Rams.
