Fantasy Football quarterback rankings, 30 players ranked from first to worst

1. Josh Allen, Bills - This quarterback is a premium pick, usually costing you a 3rd round selection. He has consistently been the top quarterback or second best for the past six seasons. He is a safe choice for your fantasy team, and you won't have to worry about injuries or jinxes.

2. Lamar Jackson, Ravens - The Ravens' quarterback has a new offensive coordinator, Declan Doyle, calling the plays. Jackson has evolved into a strong passer and could be a top 12 quarterback overall. He is typically taken in the 5th or 6th round, but you can snag him in the 3rd round when you trade away Zay Flowers.

3. Caleb Williams, Bears - Williams is expected to take a significant leap in his game this season. His rushing stats will be more dependable than Mayfield's, and he is projected to have over 4,000 passing yards with at least 25 passing touchdowns. This quarterback is a solid option to draft in the 7th round, especially if you draft AJ Brown in the 2nd round.

4. Drake Maye, Patriots - Maye's combination of rushing and passing abilities make him an attractive choice for many fantasy teams. He will have a tough schedule and may suffer from the "Super Bowl Hangover," but his skills make him a great QB1 option in round 7, particularly when you draft Brown in the 2nd round.

5. Joe Burrow, Bengals - Burrow's health is crucial this season. If he stays healthy, he will likely have over 34 touchdown passes and 4,400 passing yards, making up for his limited rushing ability. Draft him around the 5th or 6th round, just after Lamar Jackson.

6. Jalen Hurts, Eagles - Hurts' passing game will see a boost with Sean Mannion as his new offensive coordinator. His rushing ability and potential for 10+ rushing touchdowns make him a safe QB1 choice (top 12). Despite a rough previous season, his performance has improved in the two seasons prior.

7. Trevor Lawrence, Jaguars - Over the past eight games of the previous season, Lawrence was the best fantasy quarterback, finishing as the overall QB4. In his second season with Coen, his performance is expected to improve. Keep an eye on Brian Thomas Jr.'s performance in the secondary, as it could greatly impact Lawrence's success. Draft him in the 7th round.

8. Justin Herbert, Chargers - Herbert had a strong start last season, but the Chargers lost their Pro Bowl tackles. He's set to return with a new play caller, Mike McDaniel. If you can draft him around the 8th-9th pick, he should be a great addition to your team.

9. Jayden Daniels, Commanders - Daniels has potential, and the additions of Chig Okonkwo and Stephan Diggs will make him even more attractive. However, his size and playing style may be exposed to injuries. Despite the concerns, Daniels is worth considering if you're looking for upside. Draft him around the 9th pick.

10. Dak Prescott, Cowboys - Prescott had a fantastic season in 2025, ranking as the overall QB6. He also had successful seasons in 2023 (QB3) and 2021 (QB7). However, he had a tough 2022 (QB19) and 2024 (QB32) due to injuries. If he falls to 10th in the draft, he's worth taking, but you should also draft a premium backup.
