Just to point out one example, Kirk Cousins ranked 11th overall in fantasy last year in standard formats (and ahead of any other non-QB), but in PPR leagues, he finished 17th overall (behind Tyreek Hill, Stefon Diggs, and others).

This is simply because other positions produce more fantasy points in PPR leagues while the quarterback position is unaffected across the two formats. Outside of the obvious differences between standard and PPR superflex leagues, the quarterback position is just a tad more valuable in standard. Quarterback | Running back | Wide receiver | Tight end | D/ST | Kicker You don't have to completely sell out for the position - elite RBs, WRs, and TEs still have a ton of value, especially since you can still play those positions in your superflex spot if you want - but you might be surprised just how fast QBs come off the board if it's your first superflex draft. It can be a weird adjustment to change your way of thinking about the quarterback position, but it's just something you have to prepare for. That's why, unlike single-QB leagues, quarterbacks go early and dominate the top half of our rankings below.

Quarterback | Running back | Wide receiver | Tight end | D/ST | Kicker | Top 200Įven a lot of Week 1 backup QBs will be drafted in superflex leagues. In 12-person or deeper leagues, not every team will even possess a backup quarterback behind their two starters. In all likelihood, though, those two QBs with be on rosters, too. Good luck finding a starting quarterback on waivers in superflex and two-QB leagues.ĭOMINATE YOUR DRAFT: Ultimate 2021 Cheat SheetĪssuming everyone in your league starts two quarterbacks and drafts at least one backup, only two Week 1 starting QBs won't be drafted. Plenty of owners in single-QB leagues don't even bother drafting a backup, figuring they can just stream someone off the waiver wire when their starter is on bye. Superflex leagues force you to pay closer attention to all QBs, not just the top 15 or so.

Before you make the switch, it's important to pay attention to the variance in rankings between these formats and single-QB setups.

It's quite likely your yearly fantasy group is tempted to try this type of league in 2021 if they haven't already. If you add them together, you get a whole different feel than your standard, single-quarterback redraft leagues. Now, things are much more varied, with two-QB and superflex leagues gaining in popularity and PPR becoming the default on many sites. Back then, the most exotic variation you saw was tight ends being eligible in the flex position. There used to be a time when basic, standard leagues ruled fantasy football.
