According to current average draft position data, only four quarterbacks are being taken in the first three to four rounds in fantasy drafts. So what happens if you don’t grab Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Jalen Hurts or Joe Burrow early in your draft?
There are worthy passers to take in the middle rounds, but many fantasy managers employ the strategy of loading up on the best skill-position guys they can get and waiting until the later rounds to grab an under-the-radar quarterback who they believe can still post sufficient numbers.
