Mahomes has just a The thing is, this isn't really anything new: Teams have known that playing a two-safety shell defense can take away the big play from these elite quarterbacks, and we've seen guys like Aaron Rodgers and Josh Allen struggle with it at times as well.
It's a fairly simple defensive strategy, and if it was a sure-fire way to slow down a guy like Mahomes, it wouldn't have taken four years for defenses to figure it out.
The issue goes deeper than that. Mahomes just isn't playing well right now, and he's not getting much help from an offensive line that hasn't been as good as hoped after some big offseason additions. There's probably some bad luck involved, too; Mahomes got away from a lot of wild throws in the past that he just hasn't gotten away with this season, and that'll probably regress before long.
But he's also forcing a lot of throws that just aren't there, and likely passing up easier options to do so. The point is, Mahomes needs to play better, regardless of the line or the defense or any other factors. If he does, he'll be able to punish defenses for sitting on the long ball and force them to adjust. Maybe the return of Clyde Edwards-Helaire can make the running game more dangerous and force an adjustment. But, given his track record, I have to keep betting on Mahomes figuring it out, even if I can't rank him as the No.
He had points in Yahoo! But the drop-off from Allen to the 11th leading scorer among QBs, Kirk Cousins, is less than points. Compare that with running backs. The difference is even more stark with tight ends, where just two players—Travis Kelce and Darren Waller—had more than points in PPR leagues.
Even among receivers, one of the most plentiful positions in all of fantasy football , there were only three players north of points in PPR formats last year.
There are exceptions to this rule. For instance, if your league puts more weight on passing touchdowns — i. In both cases, stud running backs are still going to be the first guys off the board. Position scarcity also makes tight ends valuable.
For these leagues, it would not be a reach to take someone like Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes or Aaron Rodgers late in the first round and into the second, depending on what other players are still available. And it might be a good idea to think about a QB2 shortly after that. Remember, there are only 32 starting quarterbacks in any given week fewer in most weeks because of byes , whereas you can still find a contributing wide receiver on the waiver wire in a pinch.
