![]() Kyle Shanahan is a wizard and with the addition of Jerick McKinnon and Trent Taylor, there are enough weapons for the 49ers to build off the 5-0 record under Garoppolo in 2017.ħ. Usually, I want to see the production for a more extended period of time, but everything seems to be lined up just right and I’m willing to invest heavily in Jimmy G. Jimmy Garoppolo (San Francisco 49ers Age – 26) Consider me on the optimistic side that Newton returns to fantasy dominance and is a great investment in dynasty leagues while his stock is down relative to recent years.Ħ. If it takes some time to gel, the heat will really be on Newton with three down seasons following his MVP campaign. If it clicks right away and Christian McCaffrey, Devin Funchess, and Greg Olsen go bonkers Newton could end the year as the top QB in the fantasy game and he’s still just 30 years old. Cam Newton (Carolina Panthers Age – 29)Ĭam is in a new system this year, so Newton’s stock is volatile at this point in time. At just 25 years old, he’s a franchise player in dynasty.ĥ. Wentz is at the helm of an explosive offense and has both the passing and rushing numbers to be an elite fantasy option. A Week 1 start is still not guaranteed, but his stock is creeping up as more good news continues to come out of camp. The injury is still looming but signs are pointing up as Wentz will begin the season on the active roster and not the PUP list. Carson Wentz (Philadelphia Eagles Age – 25) Wilson has to do so much for the Seattle offense, his production should be very consistent from week-to-week.Ĥ. 3 spot due to reliability and the certainty he brings in the short-term. Wilson gets the nod over Wentz for the No. Russell Wilson (Seattle Seahawks Age – 29) ![]() I don’t doubt Watson’s fantasy relevance for the next 10 years, that is safely in play, but I do wonder if he ever will be a Top 3 quarterback in any full season.ģ. I’m still a skeptic to the legitimacy of Watson’s monster 2017 debut, but the combination of age and performance is worthy of an early gamble. Even in a start-up dynasty draft, I’m comfortable taking Rodgers as the first QB off the board.Ģ. Rodgers is loaded with weapons on the outside with Davante Adams, Randall Cobb, Jimmy Graham, and a few high upside receivers in Michael Clark, Geronimo Allison, and Equanimeous St. He’s healthy and now has a capable running game in Jamaal Williams and Aaron Jones for the first time in his career in Green Bay. Aaron Rodgers (Green Pay Packers Age – 34)Ģ018 is going to be the Aaron Rodgers Revenge Tour. Fantrax can work with virtually any league format you can dream up.ġ. It’s time to make all the preparation pay off! Head on over to Fantrax to start or join a Fantasy Football league. With that brief primer out of the way, let’s dig in to our top dynasty quarterbacks. While Brady’s long-term future is one of the biggest question marks in the sport, if a contending team needs an upgrade at QB to win this year, the leverage is in place to get a massive haul for Brady. An example for interpreting these ratings would be that you should expect to receive a better package for trading Tom Brady (ranked 13th) to a championship contender, then you would if you were to trade Baker Mayfield (ranked 16th) to a rebuilding franchise. This doesn’t mean the player ranked second is a better fit for your roster construction then the player ranked third or fourth, but it is a way of valuing assets and setting expectations for what you should receive in return for a trade. ![]() In order to provide one comprehensive list, I decided to rank dynasty quarterbacks by ordering them based on the maximum return you should expect to receive if you traded the player in a dynasty league. While there’s value in sitting in between and hoping to find a few breakout stars to move you into championship contention, I prefer the route of either saying I’m “going for it” or tearing it down and acquiring assets. The best approach to dynasty rankings is to have two lists: one set of rankings for teams competing this year and next and another list for teams in the rebuild phase. In my re-draft leagues, I will take Garoppolo at his 94.1 ADP every single day over Watson at 46.3, but in dynasty the thought of having 10-plus years of Watson as a Top 5 QB is so much more valuable then the upside Jimmy G offers. The difference in value between DeShaun Watson and Jimmy Garoppolo is a perfect example. The difference between the third and 10th ranked quarterbacks in redraft formats is so small it’s advantageous to wait, but dynasty quarterbacks get a significant boost in value due to their longevity at the top of the position. For both professional and fantasy football, quarterbacks are the longest term asset in the sport and provide the flexibility to keep your championship window open for an extended period of time. Dynasties are built around a quarterback. ![]()
