Josh Allen Still the 1.01 in Superflex Startups?

Wednesday, June 10, 7:02 AM

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has finished the past six seasons as the QB1, the QB2, the QB1, the QB2, the QB1, and the QB1, and even as he enters his age-30 season, he has as strong a case as anyone to top the superflex dynasty rankings. At an age when most rushing quarterbacks face a durability-related decline, Allen has been able to sidestep such concerns with his 6'5", 237-pound frame. With the Bills trading for veteran receiver DJ Moore and spending a fourth-round pick on versatile playmaker Skyler Bell, an easy argument could be made that Allen now has the best core of receivers since Stefon Diggs was last in Buffalo in 2023. While it remains to be seen what Joe Brady's move from coordinator to head coach means for the offense, Allen already had untethered agency to run the unit as he sees fit, which has generally translated to unmatched fantasy upside.

Lamar Jackson News

Lamar Jackson Still a Dynasty Cheat Code

Tuesday, June 16, 5:36 AM

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson followed up back-to-back MVP-worthy performances and a dominating QB1 finish in 2024 with a disappointing QB20 finish in 2025, missing four games and hampered by back and hamstring injuries for much of the season. By all accounts, Jackson heads into 2026 close to full health and with a new offensive scheme better designed to take advantage of his unique abilities. Jackson has had the highest passer rating in the league off of play action in each of the past two seasons, but it was used sparingly in Todd Monken's shotgun-heavy offense. With the Bears in 2025, new offensive coordinator Declan Doyle saw his team use play action at the second-highest rate in the league, contributing to Caleb Williams' QB5 finish. Even at 32 years old, five-time Pro Bowler Derrick Henry poses one of the league's most serious threats with a head of steam, which should open up the passing game significantly when Jackson goes under center. At RotoBaller's QB4, Jackson is at his lowest value in the last three years, and with a potentially heightened passing ceiling to go with his unmatched rushing upside, he could ultimately become the biggest steal in 2026 dynasty startups.
