The 2024 rookie quarterbacks<\/a> really shook up the rankings. These 2025 dynasty quarterback rankings involve new top-12 options, tiers to move around within, and clear markers for risk-seeking managers<\/a>.

2025 Dynasty Quarterback Rankings – Rookies and Veterans<\/h2>\n

Cornerstone Quarterbacks<\/h3>\n

Josh Allen<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lamar Jackson<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jayden Daniels<\/a>*<\/strong><\/p>\n

Patrick Mahomes<\/strong><\/p>\n

Joe Burrow<\/strong><\/p>\n

Folks are going to point to C.J. Stroud as a lesson in why Jayden Daniels shouldn’t be this high. Those folks are behind the curve, as Daniels scored three more points per game as a rookie while throwing to the ghost of Zach Ertz. Mahomes is benefiting from a solid defense for real football, which has lowered his fantasy output in recent years. That won’t always be the case, and he could outlast every other quarterback in this tier despite being the oldest. Burrow is on the opposite end there, where his defense won’t always be this putrid, and the future of Tee Higgins is up in the air.<\/p>\n

QB1 Options<\/h3>\n

Jalen Hurts<\/strong><\/p>\n

Justin Herbert<\/strong><\/p>\n

C.J. Stroud<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jordan Love<\/strong><\/p>\n

Drake Maye*<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hurts will keep scoring fantasy points as long as he’s in Philly, but he’s been a trailer on the offense rather than a truck. Drake Maye is on the Justin Herbert path to success, where we universally agree he’s good at football. But then he’s in such a poor situation it’s hard to rank him any higher. Love and Stroud each took serious steps back from 2024, but they’ve put enough on tape that they should start in this league for a long time and can flirt with top six quarterback fantasy seasons.<\/p>\n

High End QB2s, Low End QB1s<\/h3>\n

Baker Mayfield<\/strong><\/p>\n

Caleb Williams*<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jared Goff<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bo Nix<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dak Prescott<\/strong><\/p>\n

Brock Purdy<\/strong><\/p>\n

Goff and Mayfield aren’t the most exciting names in the 2025 dynasty quarterback rankings, but they’re reliable, still have plenty of years left, and give managers points now. How much does the Ben Johnson hire<\/a> do for Caleb Williams and his development? Does Brock Purdy<\/a> get the contract we all expect? Is Bo Nix going to continue to run as much as he did as a rookie? Without those answers, it’s a tier of three question marks and three steady options.<\/p>\n
