Willis' 44.8 rushing yards per game average and per-dropback efficiency support top-5 QB finish.

The most extreme quarterback take: Willis finishes as a top-five fantasy quarterback in points per game. The case leans on his rushing floor combined with a team likely to trail often given real defensive concerns, meaning added passing volume on top of his legs rather than a purely rush-dependent profile. Over his limited career sample, his per-dropback efficiency has been genuinely strong, including a big-time throw rate and yards per attempt mark that would have ranked among the league's best last year if he'd qualified, and he's averaged 44.8 rushing yards per game across his six career starts, a mark that would have ranked at or near the top of the league among quarterbacks in each of the last three seasons. The skepticism around his offensive coordinator is addressed directly, drawing a parallel to how that same coordinator's reputation was unfairly tanked by a previous quarterback's rough season, suggesting real offensive talent is being overlooked here.
