Superflex QB Rankings Week 2

QB Rankings | RB Rankings | WR Rankings | TE Rankings

My first week of rankings did not go so badly. I had Russel Wilson ranked 8th and he finished 8th, Winston ranked 8th who finished, and Dak ranked 9th who finished 7th. Based on FantasyPros accuracy ranking system I will be changing my scoring system after this week, and grading myself on one positional ranking after every week. For week 2 I’ll be grading my running back picks.

Superflex and 2QB leagues of course require much more attention to the QB position. There are more starters every week, the waiver pool is either thin or non-existent depending on your league rules, and getting the right guy in at the Superflex or second QB spot can be key to winning your leagues.

One thing to remember is that putting in a QB at your Superflex spot isn’t always the right answer. Guys like Deebo Samuel, Adam Thielen, and Rob Gronkowski all outscored most starting QBs last week in standard PPR scoring.

I added a final 33rd row to account for the fact that I think Nagy inserts Justin Fields at halftime of this game after the Bears find themselves getting embarrassed again by an inferior opponent.

The Ravens showed that their vaunted defense is scrambling to recover from the loss of Marcus Peters and Mahomes showed that he is still #1 in fantasy and our hearts. Kyler Murray is borderline unstoppable with his combination of running and passing skills, buying himself time with his feet and able to heave accurate throws with his arm.

I think Aaron Rodgers is bound for a big rebound game against the Lions who let the 49ers pretty much do what they wanted for the entirety of the game. Expect the Packers offense on the whole to get back to doing what they do best: murdering opponents with deep passes to Adams and occasionally MVS and then pounding play action with Aaron Jones.

Jalen Hurts is bumped down a little because he doesn’t get to face the Falcons again, and Lamar Jackson is also low because he simply can’t do this all by himself. One of Mark Andrews or Marquise Brown really needs to step up, and I don’t see the running game improving by inserting more washed-up vets into the mix over Ty’Son Williams who is probably the best runner they have.

Out of the QB2 pool I like Tannehill best for a rebound game against the Seahawks, as the Titans will surely perform better along the o-line, specifically Taylor Lewan who called himself out on twitter following his abysmal performance. I think Mac Jones builds on a really good performance against a great defense in Miami against the Jets, who seem to still be a year away from relevance. Joe Burrow had some troubling comments about ball and clock control, suggesting they don’t reverse their low passing rate this week against the Bears. I think we see a good-but-not-great performance similar to last week.

Obviously avoid the Thursday night game pitting a backup in Heinicke against a future backup in Daniel Jones. Just nothing good to see here on the offensive side of the ball in the passing game.
