2024 Season Outlooks

Allen has been the best quarterback in Fantasy Football for the past four seasons, but he's not our consensus No. 1 QB in 2024. This offseason the Bills lost Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis from their receiving corps and replaced them with Keon Coleman, Curtis Samuel, and Marquez Valdes-Scantling. They also retained Joe Brady as their offensive coordinator. Under Brady, Allen averaged 2.5 fewer pass attempts and 18 fewer pass yards per game. That didn't matter last year, because Allen ran for 15 touchdowns, but we don't want to count on any QB repeating that type of outlier season. Allen is worthy of consideration after the first quarterback is selected in your Fantasy draft, but don't reach for him this year. He is only worth a Round 1 pick in leagues where you can start more than one quarterback.

Allen is back for his seventh season with the Bills. The dual-threat quarterback has been a fantasy dynamo over the past three seasons, averaging 24.7 fantasy points per game (best among QBs). Allen lost Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis this offseason, which is notable because he averaged only 253.3 passing yards per game last season (his lowest since 2019) and he rushed for his fewest yards since 2020. He more than made up for the rushing decline with 15 rush TDs, which will be tough to repeat. It will be difficult to replace Diggs, but the team did add Curtis Samuel in free agency and Keon Coleman with the No. 33 pick in the draft. Allen is still firmly on the QB1 radar, but managers shouldn't be surprised if we see some regression in 2024.
