Josh Allen Remains an Elite Fantasy Quarterback Option Entering 2026

Tuesday, July 21, 9:20 AM

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen put together another highly productive season in 2025, throwing for 3,668 yards and 25 touchdowns while also rushing for 579 yards and 14 scores. With the Bills shifting to a more run-heavy scheme in recent years, Allen has now recorded consecutive seasons with fewer than 4,000 passing yards and has not reached 30 touchdown passes in a single campaign since 2022. However, the 30-year-old's legs remain extremely valuable for fantasy managers, as he's logged three straight seasons with at least 500 rushing yards and 12 rushing touchdowns. In that time frame, Allen has finished no lower than the overall QB2 in per-game fantasy scoring. Entering 2026, Allen may be working with his most potent wide receiver corps in a while following Buffalo's offseason acquisition of veteran wideout DJ Moore. As long as he stays healthy, Allen may have the highest floor of any quarterback option in fantasy football.

Tua Tagovailoa News

Tua Tagovailoa Is a Cheap Superflex Throw-In

Friday, July 24, 10:40 AM

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has a path to Week 1 starts, but dynasty managers should treat him as a cheap throw-in, not a reclamation project. He completed 67.7% of his passes for 2,660 yards, 20 touchdowns, and a career-high 15 interceptions in 14 starts last season. Atlanta signed him to a one-year deal while Michael Penix Jr. works back from a torn ACL. Tagovailoa took most of the first-team snaps in minicamp, though that came before Penix was cleared for full-team work. The actual competition still has to play out. RotoBaller ranks Tagovailoa as its dynasty QB33 and around QB30 for redraft, which leaves him outside the picture in standard one-quarterback leagues. He has more appeal in superflex, especially for a contender that needs an inexpensive third quarterback. Even there, the lack of rushing production and uncertain job security make him a short-term bet rather than someone to build around.
