The latest update to the Anthony Richardson Dynasty QB Rankings reveals notable movement among key NFL quarterbacks ahead of the upcoming season. Aaron Rodgers has signed a one-year deal with the Pittsburgh Steelers, pushing him to the second-largest increase in the rankings, rising from QB44 to QB39. Meanwhile, Daniel Jones made the biggest leap, climbing from QB37 to QB30. However, Anthony Richardson experienced the steepest drop due to injury concerns and uncertain starting status, signaling a shift in the quarterback hierarchy for dynasty league players.
Aaron Rodgers’ Position Reflects Both Experience and Declining Production
Despite his rise in the rankings, Rodgers’ current standing reflects concerns tied to his age and performance levels. At 41 years old, Rodgers has averaged 16 fantasy points per game since 2022 but has not exceeded 6.8 yards per passing attempt since 2021. Although new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith has improved efficiency in the past, Rodgers may face limitations in pass attempts this season. The ranking update suggests Rodgers is a backup option best suited for leagues permitting two starting quarterbacks, with uncertain week-to-week starting potential.
Daniel Jones Gains Optimism Due to Youth and New Supporting Cast
Daniel Jones’ rise in the rankings is driven largely by his youth and the promise of a new environment. At 28, Jones is entering his prime, offering more upside than veterans like Rodgers despite past inconsistencies. After witnessing other former first-round quarterbacks such as Geno Smith, Baker Mayfield, and Sam Darnold rebound with fresh opportunities, Jones’ outlook improves notably. The arrival of receivers Josh Downs, Michael Pittman, and Tyler Warren also bolsters his potential with a more reliable set of targets than he had previously in New York.
Quarterback Competition in Indianapolis Shapes Rankings and Outlook
The quarterback battle in Indianapolis heavily influences these recent adjustments. Jones appears favored to claim the Week 1 starting role, especially following comments from coach Shane Steichen emphasizing consistency during summer evaluations and another shoulder injury to Richardson. Although Richardson may gain clearance before training camp, the current outlook slightly prefers Jones to start. This uncertainty contributes to Richardson’s sharp fall in rankings, though he remains a valuable asset with upside if he can capitalize on future starts.
Anthony Richardson’s Trade Value and Future Prospects Remain Cautiously Optimistic
While Richardson’s rank dropped, he is not considered a player to sell off hastily. His trade value is at a career low despite strong upside potential, and it remains likely that both he and Jones will see playing time this season. Owners contemplating moves would benefit most from selling only once Richardson or Jones is officially named a starter. Richardson has demonstrated flashes of high performance, and a standout game could quickly increase his value again.
Minimal Changes Outside Key Quarterback Contenders as Training Camps Approach
The overall quarterback rankings have remained largely stable beyond the contested trio of Richardson, Jones, and Rodgers, with the top 10 unchanged from last month. Few adjustments have been made within the top 24 players, emphasizing the competitive uncertainty surrounding teams such as Indianapolis, Cleveland, and New Orleans. These franchises have yet to name clear starters, with slight current inclinations toward Jones, Joe Flacco, and Tyler Shough respectively as training camp nears.
