Each year, heading into draft season, we start settling upon players we love and those we hate, relative to ADP. This article will dive into the latter portion, my fantasy football fades. We never like to see players perform poorly, but we also need to identify players that look to be in disadvantageous situations. Here are three quarterbacks to fade in fantasy football for 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fantasy Football Quarterback Fades for 2022<\/b><\/h2>\n

Before we get into these fantasy football fades, I want to preface this by saying that all of these are relative to ADP. Of course, if any of them slip a few rounds, I\u2019ll take a chance on them but that rarely happens. These are all based on <\/span>Fantasypros PPR ADP<\/span><\/a> data as of this writing.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Joe Burrow, Cincinnati Bengals<\/a><\/b><\/h3>\n

Another year of fantasy football, another year of fading Joe Burrow at his current ADP. I\u2019m not sure if it\u2019s the swag or the Super Bowl run, but Burrow has gotten that hype ever since the 2021 season ended. At this point, it has gotten out of hand. There is no denying that Burrow is a great quarterback. There is also no denying that he has arguably the best set of weapons in the NFL. <\/span><\/p>\n

What Burrow doesn\u2019t do, however, is run as all the top fantasy quarterbacks do. Burrow did run a bit more in his rookie year before tearing his ACL but only rushed for 118 yards last season. He is another year removed from the ACL injury so it\u2019s possible he may run a bit more but I don\u2019t think the Cincinnati Bengals want him to when that is not a strength of his game. He also has better weapons now than he did as a rookie and a much better offensive line as well. Last year he finished as the QB10 in fantasy points per game.<\/span><\/p>\n

22 Joe Burrow = 21 Aaron Rodgers<\/p>\n

For #FantasyFootball<\/a> purposes<\/p>\n

-Both coming off outlier high YPA
-Both coming off outlier high TD%
-Both likely to see both regress
-Both ADP ~52-56 (QB5\/6)<\/p>\n

Even with \u2b06\ufe0f in volume likely offset the efficiency regression<\/p>\n

QB10-12 finish incoming<\/p>\n
