Ray_T 708 Posted September 16, 2022 so far I think hes about what I thought hed be. still very good. but now a notch below elite as a fantasy QB with the loss of Hill. in real life hes still a stud QB but for fantasy purposes, a notch below. to be clear, he is still startable. still very good. Just not a top 3 QB for fantasy anymore. that may change as Sky Moore develops as a player. but with the talent on the team now, this is about where I expect him to be. He will have some very good games, and a few meh type games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just not a top 3 QB for fantasy anymore. Um, the season already started, and Mahomes IS the QB1 in fantasy (and he was even before he played a second game). In case you weren't scoring at home, "the best" is a notch ABOVE elite. 595 yards, 7 TDs, 0 INTs through 2 games... on pace for 5,000 and 60. Yeah, he might be startable, if you need a bye week fill-in... lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weepaws 2,918 Posted September 16, 2022 I agree op, he won’t finish in the top three, the last time he did finish in the top three was 2018. He doesn’t have the talent around him to be in the top three. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was responding to the OP… if I was responding to you I’d have directed the comment to you… you said top 5-6 if my memory is correct…I didn’t argue with you, that’s very fair. It’s the “he’s not an elite QB without Tyreek and will finish outside the top 8” crowd I’m talking about… if you have 3-5 QBs all within a point or 2 at the top then what is “elite”. Just Josh Allen last year elite? I wouldn’t have expected this thread to come up after 2 games into the season…still some time left. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I never at any point said he wont finish top 7 or 8. I just said hes not elite anymore as a fantasy QB. for me that means hes no longer a top 2-3 QB. as an NFL QB hes still elite. he just doesnt have as much talent to work with. If I was in a draft and 6 QBs are off the board and Mahomes is sitting there I'd take him every time. I'm just not spending an early draft pick to get him top 3 because I dont think the value will be there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it’s a great time for this tread, I agree with the OP, he won’t be a top three Qb, I say top 5-6. He’s had more talent on the pass, and yet hasn’t been top three since 2018, don’t see that happening this season. Thanks. Ps I was responding to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AxeElf 787 Posted September 16, 2022 Y'all are acting like it's still preseason. There's no more speculation. The drafts are done. Mahomes has two games in the book. Mahomes is currently the #1 QB in fantasy. No amount of speculation will change that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree, I worded my previous sentence incorrectly.... every year is different, if there was a year to reach and take a QB who you believe will have that superman 30ppg+ year, then round 4 would be my earliest. I generally will take my QB anywhere rounds 7-10, depending on my target that year. One league this year it was round 12. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
