There's no NFL player comparable to Deebo Samuel as a wide receiver with running back skills, but the Packers haven't hesitated to use their wideouts in similar ways. Last year, rookie Jayden Reed had 119 rushing yards and two scores, which followed Christian Watson posting 80 yards and two TDs on the ground in his rookie season. While all three will be selected as receivers with 2024 Fantasy football picks, these bonuses from the ground game only increase their values in the Fantasy football rankings 2024. Rookie wideouts like Ricky Pearsall and Ladd McConkey could be deployed similarly after they combined for nearly 500 rushing yards and nine rushing TDs in college. The old adage, "the more you can do, the better" is applicable to both real-life and fantasy, so where do these versatile wideouts fall in the 2024 Fantasy football WR rankings?

Top 2024 Fantasy football picks
The Fantasy football draft bible features 2024 Fantasy football breakouts, including:
Jaylen Warren, RB, Steelers: Undrafted in 2022, Warren went from a distant backup as a rookie to nearly a timeshare with Najee Harris as a sophom*ore. His advanced metrics are off the charts as he averaged more broken tackles per carry than any RB last season while ranking third in yards after contact per carry. Meanwhile, both Harris' touches and total yards have decreased in each of the last two seasons, and that's a trend that should continue in 2024, paving the way for even more opportunities for Warren.
"He's been more effective than Najee Harris as a runner and receiver, and I could see new OC Arthur Smith leaning on him heavily after the team lost Diontae Johnson this offseason," White told SportsLine.
Dalton Kincaid, TE, Bills: As a 2023 rookie, Kincaid wasn't much of a redzone factor but still ranked seventh amongst all tight ends with 73 catches. With Stefon Diggs, Gabe Davis and their 15 total touchdowns departed, Kincaid should be much more of a factor inside the 20-yard-line. Buffalo still has TE Dawson Knox but he's clearly the No. 2 at the position as Kincaid had twice as many receptions as Knox had targets (36) last season.
"Kincaid is likely going to fall on a lot of breakout lists as he seems primed to assume the lead role in the Bills passing game this year, which gives him the potential to deliver a season similar to that of Mark Andrews or maybe even Travis Kelce," White told SportsLine.Get the full Fantasy football draft guide over at SportsLine.
