Josh Allen is a fade due to his high ADP compared to other elite QBs

Josh Allen is a fade at his early third-round ADP because he is priced two to three rounds ahead of comparable elite quarterbacks like Joe Burrow, Lamar Jackson, Drake Maye, and Jayden Daniels. While Allen remains the QB1, the opportunity cost of passing on skill position players in the third round is too high when other QBs can provide similar production for significantly cheaper draft capital.
