NFL Best Ball 2023 Rankings: Top 20 Quarterbacks
NFL Best Ball season is HERE! These rankings will be updated throughout the draft season with a running timestamp.
Let’s take a look at the Top 20 Quarterbacks!
Timestamp: 5/9/2023 3 PM EST
QB5 Joe Burrow
Joe Burrow had a strong 2022 season, cementing himself as a top Quarterback in the NFL. He threw for over 600 passes and 35 touchdowns, with an additional 5 rushing touchdowns. This performance has led to a high ADP of 40.4 in NFL Best Ball drafts. Burrow has shown a career touchdown percentage of 5.4%, indicating his ability to find the endzone. Additionally, his sack rate decreased by 10 sacks in 2022, indicating improvements to the offensive line.
Burrow’s stacked receiving core includes Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Tyler Boyd, and Irv Smith, providing him with elite options to stack and secondary options to utilize. Overall, Burrow’s high volume and strong supporting cast make him an attractive option in Best Ball drafts. Keep an eye on the Joe Mixon situation. If we see Mixon get cut or suspended, this could point to the Bengals leaning even more on Burrow.
QB9 Anthony Richardson
Anthony Richardson is the latest rookie quarterback to be taken high in the draft, landing with the Indianapolis Colts. His potential is undeniable, with a strong arm and excellent mobility that make him a dual threat on the field. His performance at Florida showed his ability to produce both through the air and on the ground, which will be a valuable asset in fantasy football.
Under the guidance of new head coach Shane Steichen, who previously served as the offensive coordinator for the Philadelphia Eagles, Richardson should be able to adapt quickly to the Colts’ spread offense which should be an easy transition from the offenses he ran at Florida. The team has solid stacking options with Jonathan Taylor, Michael Pittman, Alec Pierce, Josh Downs, and Jelani Woods, making him an attractive pick in best ball drafts.
However, Richardson is a high-risk pick, as he is still a rookie and his performance can be unpredictable. His current ADP of 85.1 is high for a rookie quarterback, but he has the potential to provide high returns if he provides a high rushing floor and produces at a league-average level as a passer.
QB12 Kirk Cousins
Kirk Cousins is a reliable fantasy quarterback option who has consistently thrown for high volume in recent years. In 2022, he attempted an impressive 643 passes, resulting in 29 touchdowns and 2 additional rushing touchdowns. As a result, Cousins is a popular choice in best ball leagues, with a current ADP of 99.4 in NFL Best Ball drafts.
Cousins is a prime Quarterback to double stack given his ability to provide fantasy points to multiple receivers every week, making him an excellent option for best ball drafts. He has an elite stacking option in Justin Jefferson, who has developed into a top-tier Wide Receiver and is expected to continue to be a top fantasy receiver in 2023. Cousins also has solid double-stack options in Jordan Addison, T.J. Hockenson, and K.J. Osborne, giving him a range of options to choose from when building a best ball lineup. With Cousins’ impressive career touchdown percentage of 5.2%, he has the potential to deliver consistent fantasy production for best ball teams.
