The Cleveland Browns have high hopes heading into the 2024 NFL season. Deshaun Watson should be healthy after dealing with multiple injuries last year. Meanwhile, the Browns have built a solid set of weapons around him.
While David Njoku was a fantasy superstar to end last season, many are excited about Cleveland’s wide receiver corps. Amari Cooper has been one of the more consistent wide receivers since getting traded to the Browns. Meanwhile, the team acquired Jerry Jeudy this offseason after trading for Elijah Moore last year.
However, which Cleveland wide receiver should fantasy players draft in 2024? Let’s dive into it.

Amari Cooper 2024 Fantasy Football Outlook
Cooper was the WR18 last season, averaging 12.7 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. The veteran wide receiver had 72 receptions on 128 targets for 1,250 receiving yards and five touchdowns. While he struggled with Dorian Thompson-Robinson under center, Cooper was productive with Watson and Joe Flacco. The veteran is one of my favorite wide receiver draft targets this year.

Jerry Jeudy 2024 Fantasy Football Outlook
Jeudy had high expectations with the Denver Broncos last season. Unfortunately, he fell well short of those expectations. The veteran was the WR50, averaging 7.2 half-point PPR fantasy points per game, totaling 54 receptions on 87 targets for 758 receiving yards and two touchdowns in 16 contests. Many hope Jeudy can finally have a breakout year after getting traded. However, I have little interest in drafting the veteran receiver in 2024.

Elijah Moore 2024 Fantasy Football Outlook
Moore was a popular sleeper candidate last season after getting traded from the New York Jets to the Browns. However, he had his second consecutive disappointing year. The former Ole Miss star was the WR55, averaging 6.0 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. Moore ended the season with 59 receptions on 104 targets for 640 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Unfortunately, the veteran has an uphill fight to become a consistent fantasy-relevant wide receiver.

Who Should I Draft in Fantasy Football?
Fantasy players should prioritize drafting Cooper over Jeudy or Moore. The veteran has been one of the more underrated wide receivers in the NFL since getting traded to Cleveland. Meanwhile, Jeudy and Moore have consistently struggled since their rookie seasons. While Cooper is a solid WR2 option for fantasy players, Jeudy and Moore are double-digit-round dart-throw picks.
