A couple of second-year quarterbacks made a leap in 2025, shaking up the top 10 dynasty quarterbacks as they joined some proven veterans. Here are the top 10 dynasty quarterbacks entering the 2026 season.<\/p>\n
In the last six seasons, Josh Allen has finished as the overall QB1 or QB2 six times and was the QB1 four times and the QB2 twice. This is one of the greatest fantasy stretches for a quarterback ever. The Buffalo Bills<\/a> upgraded their receiving room by trading for D.J. Moore. Expect Allen to dominate fantasy football for the next few years. There is no surprise here that Allen is at the top of the top 10 dynasty quarterbacks.<\/p>\n The only thing that has slowed Lamar Jackson down in his career is injuries. After being the overall QB1 for the second time in his career in 2024, he missed four games in 2025, and the Baltimore Ravens<\/a> missed out on the playoffs. In Jackson\u2019s four healthy seasons, he has four top 10 finishes, with three of them being inside the top four. With a new coaching staff taking over for Baltimore, look for Jackson to get back on track. As long as he can stay on the field, Jackson will put up top-three fantasy finishes for the next few seasons.<\/p>\n Drake Maye broke out in his sophomore season, finishing as the QB2 and taking the New England Patriots<\/a> to the Super Bowl. There was a lot of talk about how the Patriots had a very easy schedule in 2025, so we will see how they respond to a more difficult one in 2026. New England traded for A.J. Brown, so Maye gets a solidified number one target for a while. At just 23 years old, Maye is one of the youngest quarterbacks in the league, putting him in a position to succeed in dynasty for the next decade.<\/p>\n After a sensational rookie season for Jayden Daniels, in which he finished as a top-five fantasy quarterback and took the Washington Commanders<\/a> to the NFC Championship Game, injuries ruined his 2025 season. He only played in four full games and left early in three other games, while missing the other ten. Similar to Jackson, all Daniels has to do is stay on the field, and he will be a top-five fantasy football quarterback.<\/p>\n Jaxson Dart spent the first three weeks of the season behind Russell Wilson, but he started his career off with a bang by beating the Chargers. Injuries, and specifically concussions, put a setback to Dart\u2019s season, but he still had a great rookie year. Dart played in 11 full games and was a top 10 fantasy quarterback in seven of them, including four top four finishes.<\/p>\n Dart has just as high a ceiling as Jackson and Daniels have. The only starting quarterback younger than Dart is Fernando Mendoza. Expect Dart to have many successful seasons for the New York Giants<\/a> for the next decade, which puts him at number five in the top 10 dynasty quarterbacks.<\/p>\n Caleb Williams is another quarterback who had a breakout in his sophomore year, finishing as the QB5 and taking the Chicago Bears<\/a> deep into the playoffs with new head coach Ben Johnson. Williams is tied to young receivers such as Rome Odunze and Luther Burden III for a while. This offense should be one of the best for a while with the young core that Chicago has established.<\/p>\n Jalen Hurts has five consecutive seasons finishing as a top 10 fantasy quarterback. He did just lose his number one receiver, A.J. Brown<\/a>, but the Eagles regrouped by drafting Makai Lemon and tight end Eli Stowers<\/a>. Philadelphia got a new offensive coordinator to try to fix Hurts and the Eagles offense. Hurts is one of the most consistent quarterbacks in fantasy football and should continue to put up top ten finishes for the next few seasons.<\/p>\n Joe Burrow has played six seasons in the NFL. In his three healthy seasons, he has finished as the QB7, QB4 and QB3. In the other three seasons, he has failed to play more than 10 games. When Burrow is healthy, the Cincinnati Bengals<\/a> are one of the best offenses in the NFL with Ja\u2019Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Burrow still has a lot left in the tank and ranks eighth in the top 10 dynasty quarterbacks.<\/p>\n After six consecutive top ten finishes for Patrick Mahomes, he has two straight QB11 finishes, including in 2025 when he missed the final three games due to a torn ACL. Mahomes is on track to be ready for Week 1<\/a>. Even though Mahomes has been in the league for nine years, he will be just 31 years old for the 2026 season. Mahomes will come back stronger after this injury and will want to lead the Kansas City Chiefs<\/a> back to the Super Bowl.<\/p>\n2. Lamar Jackson<\/h3>\n
