Fantasy Football: League-winning quarterbacks for 2023

(Kyle Ross/Icon Sportswire) (Icon Sportswire via AP Images)

Jalen Hurts should be the top quarterback picked: No other quarterback has the same combination of quality in both the run game and pass.

Justin Fields has a shot at number one: The Bears quarterback over the second half of last season was arguably the best rushing half-season we’ve ever seen out of a quarterback.

Draft a top-eight quarterback: Even a fantasy manager who misses on these two should still target a quarterback ranked in the top-eight, as it’s hard for a quarterback to reach the top five when they weren’t drafted among the league’s best.

Bijan Robinson landed in the perfect situation: Robinson is the best running back prospect in recent memory after landing on a run-first team with an excellent offensive line.

Tony Pollard earns his opportunity: Pollard is finally the Dallas Cowboys‘ lead back, so his opportunity can finally be as big as his talent.

Rhamondre Stevenson is the New England Patriots lead back: The Patriots have typically used a committee at running back, but Stevenson proved last season he’s capable of an every-down role.

Fantasy Football: League-winning wide receivers for 2023

Amon-Ra St. Brown can be a more complete receiver: St. Brown has made his name catching short passes and making players miss, but he’s looking to become a deep threat at well.

Don’t count Keenan Allen out yet: Allen is 31 years old and the Los Angeles Chargers just added a first-round wide receiver, but he was a top-five fantasy wide receiver when healthy last season and could benefit from Kellen Moore as offensive coordinator.

Deebo Samuel’s rushing ability helps him stand out: Samuel has been excellent when healthy, and his rushing production gives him a unique edge over all other receivers.

Fantasy Football: League-winning tight ends for 2023

Only a few tight ends could dethrone Travis Kelce: The Kansas City Chiefs is one of four tight ends with a PFF receiving grade above 90.0 over the last two seasons. No one has graded between 85-90.

Mark Andrews will benefit from Todd Monken: The Baltimore Ravens will start throwing the ball more often, which means more targets for Andrews.

George Kittle will continue to benefit from Brock Purdy: Kittle was the league’s best fantasy tight end once Purdy started seeing playing time.
