We're drafting Prescott as a top-eight quarterback no earlier than Round 6 in a one-quarterback league. He's a first-round pick in most Superflex leagues, and if he repeats what he did last year he'll be a value at cost once again. If you wanted to look for reasons Prescott won't repeat, you start with his 6.1% pass TD rate, which was about a point higher than his career average. However, he's been at 6% for three years now. The truth is, he has essentially been a top-five Fantasy quarterback since the start of 2020, except for 2022 which was marred by injury and some terrible turnover luck. Prescott is one of the best reasons not to draft a quarterback early because he should give you 90% of their production four rounds later. In Dynasty we'd feel better about Prescott if he signed a long-term deal. For now, view him as a high-end QB2 who is more valuable than that to contenders.
Prescott bounced back last season after a challenging 2022, finishing third among QBs in fantasy points, and he was one of only four passers to average 20 fantasy points per game. Volume is key. No quarterback completed more passes and Prescott's 36 touchdown passes were four more than anyone else. While Prescott's long-term future in Dallas may be problematic, he is safe this season and enjoys CeeDee Lamb to throw to. Prescott has delivered exceptional statistics when healthy (2019, 2021, 2023), so while he may slip outside the top five quarterbacks on draft day, it only makes him a bargain.
