Dynasty Movement: Week 10

Potential season-ending injuries to quarterbacks falling out of the playoff hunt in Dak Prescott and Trevor Lawrence have our eye for Week 10. How does that impact those around them?

The Dynasty staff gathered to work through multiple quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends who are the biggest risers or fallers in rankings. Check out the Footballguys Dynasty Football show with Jagger May and myself for more Dynasty content. We do three episodes weekly, discussing a variety of relevant Dynasty trends.

Dynasty Movement at Quarterback

C.J. Stroud, Houston

Andy Hicks - Over the last three weeks, Stroud has barely completed 50% of his passes, has one touchdown, and is averaging less than 200 passing yards a game- hardly starting material. The absence of Stefon Diggs and Nico Collins hurts his development until he gets back on track; many better options are rated higher.

Justin Herbert, LA Chargers

Andy Hicks - Don’t look now, but Herbert leads the league in passing yardage for the last three games. Add in only one interception, and he isn't fantasy-dead yet. Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston are developing nicely, and the Chargers have a balanced offense. Herbert gets a bit of a bump in anticipation of better-than-expected numbers. 

Anthony Richardson, Indianapolis

Ryan Weisse - This will be a significant correction week for most of my picks. Richardson needed fixing, as he was still in my Top 12 at quarterback. With his recent benching and poor play, he belongs in the conversation with Justin Fields, not Herbert. He is now outside my Top 20. If you want to gamble on his next job in 2025 or 2026, he's an interesting player in Superflex, but he has almost no value in one-QB leagues.

Patrick Mahomes II, Kansas City

Matthew Montgomery- Isn't it amazing what happens when good quarterbacks get compatible pieces in an offense they lead? Since the acquisition of Deandre Hopkins by the Chiefs, Mahomes is averaging 20 points per game. Yes, the sample size is small, but the fact that we are seeing a reemergence of the game's quarterback in fantasy football is a huge deal. Hopkins showed us this past week that he still has plenty in the tank, and defenses will now take notice, opening opportunities for other receivers. Pair this with a unique offensive system architected by Andy Reid, and we will have a recipe for a rest-of-season QB1.
