Fitz’s Top Draft Targets
He ran for 1,143 yards and eight touchdowns last year, but Fields is going later than he should in most early drafts, possibly because people aren’t sure what sort of quarterback he will be. Fields may never again match last season’s 160 rushing attempts, but there’s untapped passing upside for a quarterback who threw for more than 200 yards only twice in 15 starts last season and never had more than 28 pass attempts in any game. It’s not hard to imagine Fields following the Jalen Hurts career path, where excellence as a runner is established early, and proficiency as a passer soon follows.
Young won’t be drafted in smaller 1QB leagues, but he’s a worthy target in Superflex leagues and in leagues with formats that encourage the drafting of more than one quarterback. Young’s extraordinary processing ability gives him a much higher floor than a typical rookie QB, and he might surprise us with his ceiling if he runs more aggressively than he did at Alabama.
