Sort by attribute…
1Josh AllenQBBUF24.8Allen projects 395.5 fantasy points with a 455.1 ceiling in a tier-1 passing offense, making him the most valuable QB in best ball by a wide margin.
2Jalen HurtsQBPHI57.2Rushing upside and a cleaner passing offense keep Hurts firmly in the QB1 conversation at an ADP of 61.9, even after a partial 2025 campaign.
3Drake MayeQBNE51.9Drake Maye finished QB3 in 2025 at 23 years old, and a loaded new weapons room gives his tier-2 passing offense a clear path to more.
4Brock PurdyQBSF106.3Purdy returns to a tier-1 passing offense after a partial 2025 season, but a 30% spike rate and thin floor demand patience at his ADP.
5Lamar JacksonQBBAL41.3A partial 2025 season obscures the real case: a tier-1 QB situation projecting 326 points with a 386.9 ceiling and 30.8% spike rate.
6Jayden DanielsQBWAS66.4After a partial 2025 season, Daniels projects as a QB1 in a Washington offense that jumped from a tier-7 to a tier-5 passing situation.
7Jaxson DartQBNYG108.7A 22-year-old rookie starter who turned 243.5 actual points in 14 games into a 323-point projection on rushing upside alone.
8Trevor LawrenceQBJAX86.5Lawrence posted 342 actual points in 2025 and projects at 323 in 2026, but a tier-3 pass offense and thin receiver room make floor management the real story.
9Patrick MahomesQBKC122.7Mahomes posted 281.2 points in just 14 games in 2025, and a tier-3 pass offense upgrade with 556 projected attempts pushes the 2026 ceiling to 367.5.
10Dak PrescottQBDAL80.6Dak Prescott projects nearly identical to his 311.8-point 2025 finish, but a pass offense tier drop and a 17.6% spike rate make him a shaky late-round QB anchor.
11Matthew StaffordQBLAR110.7Stafford threw for 356 fantasy points in a full 17-game 2025 season, but a tier drop in the pass offense and 570 projected attempts make the ceiling math tighter than ADP suggests.
12Joe BurrowQBCIN57.7After a partial 2025 season, Burrow returns to a tier-1 passing offense with 550 projected attempts and a target ceiling of 380.9 fantasy points.
13Kyler MurrayQBMIN133.6After a partial 2025 season, Murray lands in Minnesota with a 517-attempt projection but a tier-6 pass offense that makes his 153 floor a real concern.
14Caleb WilliamsQBCHI69.1Williams posted 317 fantasy points in 2025 but faces a tier-4 pass offense and a 557-attempt projection that tests his ceiling in 2026.
15Jared GoffQBDET126.5Goff has logged 307 fantasy points in a tier-1 passing offense, but an ADP of 133 means you can grab him as a late QB1 with genuine upside.
16Bo NixQBDEN108.8A tier-5 pass offense caps Nix's ceiling, but 570 projected attempts and 356 rushing yards last year make him a viable streaming QB in deeper leagues.
17Baker MayfieldQBTB147.2Mayfield's pass offense upgraded from tier-5 to tier-3 in one offseason, and 542 projected attempts make him a volume QB2 worth stashing well past his current ADP.
18Daniel JonesQBIND157.5Jones projects 500 pass attempts in a tier-5 passing offense with a 123-point floor that demands caution at his current ADP.
19Justin HerbertQBLAC75.6Herbert projects nearly identical to his 2025 actual on 544 pass attempts, but a tier-3 pass offense and 29.4% spike rate cap his best-ball ceiling among QB2s.
20Jordan LoveQBGB141.6A tier-2 pass offense and 496 projected attempts give Love a legitimate QB1 ceiling after a 235-point 2025 that undersold his actual upside.
21C.J. StroudQBHOU155.1After a partial 2025 season, Stroud projects 510 pass attempts in a tier-5 pass offense with the thinnest receiver depth of any QB in this range.
22Sam DarnoldQBSEA154.0Darnold posted 243.4 fantasy points in 2025 with 14 interceptions and now leads a tier-4 pass offense with a 147 floor and 312 ceiling.
23Jacoby BrissettQBARI160.4A tier-6 QB situation with a 0.0% career spike rate and 88.8 floor makes Brissett a streaming afterthought even at a modest ADP.
24Fernando MendozaQBLV161.0A 23-year-old rookie QB inheriting a tier-8 pass offense, Mendoza's 305 ceiling and 15% spike rate make him a late-round dart with real upside.
25Shedeur SandersQBCLEA promising 23-year-old arm in a tier-6 pass offense, Sanders is more dart throw than anchor at his ADP.
26Aaron RodgersQBPIT160.1A 42-year-old in a tier-6 pass offense with a 5.9% spike rate and near-zero VORP is a late-round QB2 gamble, not a solution.
