NegativeValueSep 25, 2026
The source would trade Josh Allen for a Lamar Jackson low-ball plus additional assets, but acknowledges there is no clear trade market for him given his current elite production. The source is holding Allen in a superflex league and is 2-0 with him, but notes that trading him away is not practical and the best strategy is to ride the wave for as long as it lasts.NegativeBustSep 25, 2026
The source notes that Allen's fantasy success is driven primarily by rushing touchdowns and high-risk rushing volume rather than sustainable passing efficiency. He has recorded two rushing touchdowns in each of the first two games and is getting hit frequently. The source expresses concern that this usage pattern—while producing fantasy points—is not sustainable and represents a bust risk if the rushing touchdown volume regresses, which historical NFL patterns suggest it will.NegativeProjectionSep 25, 2026
The source expresses skepticism about the sustainability of Josh Allen's record-breaking pace, noting that while his current production is elite, historical precedent suggests this level of usage and rushing volume is not sustainable. The source cites concerns about health and durability, comparing Allen's situation to Cam Newton's career arc, where similar stretches of dominance eventually led to decline or injury. The source questions whether an 18th-pick investment can maintain this value and suggests the current pace is not actionable for fantasy purposes given the likely regression.PositiveUsageSep 25, 2026
Through two weeks, Josh Allen has accounted for 5 passing touchdowns and 4 rushing touchdowns, averaging 40 fantasy points per game and responsible for 79% of the offense and 100% of the team's touchdowns. The source compares this dominance to what Nikola Jokic does in the NBA, noting Allen is achieving this while the offense appears dinged up and the team is essentially letting him call his own number at the goal line.PositiveUsageSep 25, 2026
The source highlights Josh Allen's dominant usage through two weeks: 5 passing touchdowns, 4 rushing touchdowns, averaging 40 points per game, accounting for 79% of the offense and 100% of the team's touchdowns (or nearly all, with Cook possibly having one). This represents a massive increase in Allen's fantasy value and usage.PositiveProjectionSep 18, 2026
Accumulated 14 carries in week two, matching his season-opener carry total from last year against Baltimore. Through two weeks, he has 4 rushing touchdowns and 5 passing touchdowns, establishing him as a cheat code. The source emphasizes that owning Josh Allen is exactly where you want to be and that he is on pace to be MVP-caliber, though they note he takes significant hits and hope he stays healthy.PositiveProjectionSep 18, 2026
Allen is playing at an MVP level through two games, running aggressively and throwing well; the source notes he's 'behaving like every moment is a must win' and 'crushing for fantasy too,' though the source raises the question of whether this aggressive running style will eventually lead to injury.NegativeBustSep 4, 2026
The source names Josh Allen as the 2026 fantasy LVP, noting his ADP of 18. The source argues that while Allen has a high ceiling, passing on him to draft QBs like Joe Burrow, Lamar Jackson, Jalen Hurts, or Jayden Daniels 40-50 picks later provides better value. The source worries about potential regression in rushing production and injury risk.PositiveProjectionAug 21, 2026
Josh Allen reportedly looked very good during the joint practice session with the Browns.NegativeValueAug 18, 2026
Josh Allen is being drafted later than expected in some formats due to the overall depth of the quarterback position.NegativeValueAug 14, 2026
Harris and Josh both express hesitation regarding Allen's ADP, with Harris assigning a risk factor of 3 and Josh a 2. While they acknowledge he is not 'risky' in terms of talent, they do not love the strategy of taking a quarterback at that draft spot.PositiveProjectionMay 7, 2026
Josh Allen is projected as a top quarterback, with a strong case for being drafted in the middle of the third round.
