After every tier Ian stops for a bigger question about the position.
TIER 1: THE FAB FIVE
Drake Maye, Joe Burrow, Jordan Love, Jared Goff, Brock Purdy.
Key question: which offenses have the most fantasy-friendly combination of dropback rate over expected and plays per minute? The Cowboys, Packers, Panthers and Rams sit in the fast, pass-heavy corner, the Lions and Saints belong there too because their defenses force them to throw, and the Vikings, Jaguars, Ravens, Falcons and Dolphins are the slowest and most pass-averse.
TIER 2: THE REST OF THE QB1S
Bryce Young, C.J. Stroud, Kyler Murray, Caleb Williams, Matthew Stafford, Patrick Mahomes, Tyler Shough, Dak Prescott.
Key question: who has the best and worst upcoming schedules? Weeks 7-12 by opponent rank in fantasy points allowed to QBs: the Eagles, Giants, Buccaneers, Commanders and Vikings have it easiest, and the Falcons, Bills, Panthers, Raiders and Lions have it toughest.
TIER 3: WE'RE SAYING THERE'S A CHANCE
Geno Smith, Aaron Rodgers, Michael Penix, Kirk Cousins, Jacoby Brissett, Deshaun Watson.
Key question: which QBs are expected to be under the most and least pressure this week? All the time in the world to throw: C.J. Stroud, Aaron Rodgers, Kyler Murray, Joe Burrow and Dak Prescott. Not much time: Daniel Jones, Sam Darnold, Drake Maye and Malik Willis.
TIER 4: THE OTHER GUYS
Tyler Huntley, Malik Willis, Sam Darnold, Bo Nix, Tanner McKee, J.J. McCarthy, Baker Mayfield, Cam Ward, Daniel Jones.
