Tier One - Superstars
- Patrick Mahomes, KC
- Jalen Hurts, PHI
- Josh Allen, BUF
- Lamar Jackson, BAL
- Justin Fields, CHI
- Joe Burrow, CIN
On a per-game basis, these were the six highest-scoring fantasy quarterbacks in 2022. Every QB1 overall since 2018 by both total fantasy points and weekly average is featured on this list. Mahomes, Jackson, Hurts and Allen were in Tier One last year while Fields and Burrow are the newcomers. The quarterbacks in this group range from sneaky runners with otherworldly passing production to historically productive quarterbacks on the ground. All of them are a threat to lead the position in scoring in 2023.
Tier Two - Next In Line
- Tua Tagovailoa, MIA
- Anthony Richardson, IND
- Trevor Lawrence, JAC
- Justin Herbert, LAC
- Daniel Jones, NYG
- Deshaun Watson, CLE
The major candidates to make the leap into Tier One next year are all bunched into this group. Watson has already reached that height, but his first season in Cleveland was a disaster. Tagovailoa produced like a top-flight quarterback when active last year, but a clean bill of health has been far from a guarantee for him. Richardson, the No. 4 overall pick from Florida, is the least household name of the cohort. After posting the greatest workout metrics for a quarterback in the history of the NFL Scouting Combine, our rankers are betting on him being a prolific runner out of the gate.
