Top 50 Dynasty QBs


The 2025 NFL Draft is in the books and it’s officially rookie draft and start up season. Over the next couple weeks I’ll be sharing my updated dynasty rankings. Below are my top 50 quarterbacks, broken into four tiers.

Tier 1:

1 Josh Allen

2 Lamar Jackson

3 Joe Burrow

4 Jayden Daniels

5 Patrick Mahomes

6 Jalen Hurts

7 Justin Herbert

8 Bo Nix

9 C.J. Stroud

10 Jared Goff

11 Jordan Love

12 Baker Mayfield

About: In Dynasty, this would be the traditional QB1 tier. If you have one of these guys, you’re in good shape. If you have two, you’re ahead of the curve. This group is comprised of a few things. After the Top 6, which are probably the elite stars, we have a group of strong, young guns. I have really come up on Nix, so I have him higher than some. But I like his potential. I end this tier with some veterans who have been solid and are in great offensive situations and long-term contracts.

Tier 2: 

13 Drake Maye

14 Caleb Williams

15 Brock Purdy

16 Dak Prescott

17 Kyler Murray

18 Trevor Lawrence

19 Michael Penix Jr.

20 Bryce Young

21 Cam Ward

22 Matthew Stafford

23 Geno Smith

24 Jaxon Dart

25 Tua Tagovailoa

About: This is the traditional QB2 range. If you’re in Superflex, you need at least one player in the first two tiers if you have any chance of competing. If you don’t have one—or ideally two or three—you’re in trouble. You can make it just having a couple people from this tier, as long as you don’t get any big injuries. This is a group that’s made up of young players still proving themselves and veterans who are nearing the cap on their careers. At the end, I have Tua, who is perhaps the hardest player to rank. He has the talent and age profile to be much higher in this group, or in Tier 1, but he has an injury history that makes him a huge risk.

Tier 3:

26 Sam Darnold

27 Justin Fields

28 Anthony Richardson

29 J.J. McCarthy

30 Shedeur Sanders

31 Kirk Cousins

32 Tyler Shough

33 Russell Wilson

34 Jalen Milroe

35 Aaron Rodgers

36 Mason Rudolph

37 Daniel Jones

About: This is an interesting tier. It can make or break you in Dynasty. Everyone has some guys in this Tier and in Tier 4. This is a tough group. Guys here could be too low or too high. This is populated by a lot of players who are trying to prove themselves—either rookies or veterans who have had a checkered career. We also have a few older veterans who are in their last hurrah. These are good guys to have as your QB3 or QB4 on a team, but hopefully you don’t have to rely on them week-to-week.

Tier 4:

38 Jameis Winston

39 Will Levis

40 Aidan O'Connell

41 Spencer Rattler

42 Will Howard

43 Quinn Ewers

44 Dillon Gabriel

45 Jimmy Garoppolo

46 Mac Jones

47 Malik Willis

48 Joe Milton

49 Andy Dalton

50 Cooper Rush

About: With few exceptions, this last tier is about backups. Even the rookies here likely profile as sturdy, high-end backups. These guys will likely play at some point in the season, and they may even do well for a week or two, but they’re not reliable starting options.

  It was an interesting week for new releases in theaters. Below is my take on the two big theatrical films from the weekend. You can keep up with everything I’m watching by following me on Letterboxd @knighthawk7734. Boy Kills World (Theaters) Starring : Bill Skarsgard, Jessica Rothe, Famke Janssen, Brett Gellman, and Michelle Dockery Synopsis : We have seen a lot of action films this year. Many have featured violent sequences, but some have been more artful than others. The new film, Boy Kills World, provides plenty of violence. It’s right there in the title. But where it falls short is in building something compelling beyond the killing spree. We’re introduced to a Boy (Skarsgard) early in the film. He tells us that his world is ruled by the Van Der Koy family, whose head, Hilda (Janssen) keeps the people in line through an annual Culling, where she kills “enemies.” Our protagonist’s mother and sister were among her victims. The Boy barely survived; saved by the Shaman (Yayan Ru...

2010 Rewind: The Book of Eli

Image
It's hard to believe, but 2010 was 15 years ago. Over the next few weeks I'm going to be looking at some stand out films from 2010 that are turning 15 in 2025. Today, it's a dystopian story featuring Denzel Washington. Eli: People had more than they needed. We had no idea what was precious and what wasn't. We threw away things people kill each other for now. The Book of Eli Starring: Denzel Washington, Mila Kunis, Jennifer Beals, and Gary Oldman Director: Allen and Albert Hughes About : I have a love/hate relationship with this movie. It's a dystopian tale featuring Denzel Washington in a dark and intriguing story. I have never totally loved it but it has long stuck with me. There's a style to the violence and storytelling that's interesting. The choice of visual tones is interesting. But, mostly, it's the way the film taps into Scripture that has been appealing. Is it perfect? Far from it. In fact, it might be too literal in some of its takes on the ...

2005 Rewind: The Exorcism of Emily Rose

Image
  It's hard to believe, but 2005 was 20 years ago. Over the next few weeks I'm going to be looking at some stand out films from 2005 that are turning 20 in 2025. Today, it's the start of an animated franchise. Father Moore : Once you've looked into the darkness, I think you carry it with you for the rest of your life. The Exorcism of Emily Rose (2005) Starring : Jennifer Carpenter, Laura Linney, and Tom Wilkinson Director : Scott Derrickson About : We've seen plenty of exorcism films in the past. I break it down into two groups. In the first, the film uses the rite of exorcism as a plot device for a horror film. For the most part, that's how The Exorcist plays out. In the second group, the film is interested in exploring the religious aspects of exorcism. That's the category this film falls into. It was directed by Derrickson, who attended Biola University like me, which is one of the reasons I was interested in seeing it. It plays out like a courtroom dram...
