psygolf 2,791 Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 What’s the mystery...he’ll be a bye-week player in ff, and he’ll keep his team competitive against the non-elite teams in real football. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dontclapGonorrhea 377 Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Week 12 thru 17 he had some decent weeks. Before the bye week he was injured and pretty up and down. I would take a gamble on him somewhere in the 11th or 12th round. Could be a solid filler here and there. Im also, worried that he won't be able to take the hits with how much he does run. He was always banged up at Wyoming, but he did play through it. Missed 2 games in 2017 there as well. 26.3 13 @Mia 231 2 2 / 0 28.7 14 NYJ 206 0 2 / 1 18.3 15 Det 204 1 0 / 0 19.8 16 @NE 217 1 2 / 0 11.7 17 Mia 224 3 1 / 0 40.5 MORE STATS » VIEW PLAYERCARD » Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It will be interesting to see what kind of help the front office gets him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hoppychokes 871 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 If he can continue the rushing numbers he is a no brainer late QB. Too bad he is saddled with McDermott. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BrianM 1,337 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 On the Assistant Coach forum for week 16, there were multiple people debating Josh Allen vs Aaron Rodgers for their week 16 start, and the advice givers seemed to push for Allen over Rodgers......just to remind some folks how hyped Allen was after that late November, early December hot streak. Allen is a perfect fit for a QB streamer. It should be very easy to identify the matchups he can score in, and avoid the pitfalls. I live in Buffalo so he's gonna have to be a DND since his price will balloon, but i'm looking at him otherwise as a top QB2 option. Throw him in there vs weak defenses, especially at home, and he's probably rewarding you with 5-6 games in the high 20's or 30's. Avoid the Patriots, Ravens, etc, and you're good. League scoring matters a ton here too. One of mine does not penalize for INT's, and is only 4 pts for pass TD's, but 6 for rushing TD's. Allen is a QB1 in this format.

It all depends on the season, I don't think he'll ever get to an insane number like Mahomes did this year even though he has that kind of arm strength. If you take out the Baltimore game (lol) his 16 game pace would put him around 320-330 fantasy points in standard leagues. That can get him into the top 10 in most seasons. Assuming he gets a bit better and Buffalo puts more talent around him, he could probably crack the top 5 in a down year like Cam did in 2017. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He's a good runner so he can absolutely have a top 10 season. #1 overall is crazy though. FWIW Allen is my Madden 19 QB. In year 4 and he isn't getting much better.

dmb3684 4,644 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I bet his we see his ADP go way up before the season due to recency bias with Mahomes and Watson. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DerrickHenrysCleats 6,197 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Those rushing stats are HUGE for fantasy. I got him as a backup in a dynasty league and completely satisfied. This guy is putting up monster rushing numbers and decent passing #s with WRs like Zay Jones, Robert Foster, and Isaiah McKenzie. Will be interesting to see what moves the Bills make at WR to try and help Allen more in 2019. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BMcP 8,866 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 The thing with Allen is he was so unbelievably terrible as a passer, regardless of scenario, that if he only improved to mediocre status, he would be an every-week start in fantasy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

How is it not related? The recency bias of Mahomes and Watson was because they are young multi-dimensional QB's that are possibly elite passers as well. Mahomes just passed for something like 50 TD's. Josh Allen has his rushing stats. I don't really think Josh Allen's ADP is going to jump up much at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I just meant from a casual fantasy football player's standpoint they have a similar skill set and dummies will get tricked. You won't find me anywhere near Allen, but for the record I'm seeing 12.12 ADP at FFC. So we can just revisit in August. I'm saying it's in the 10s. Bet you three internet dollars. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
