August Dynasty ADP Risers and Fallers: Quarterbacks

It is time to take a look at startup ADP risers and fallers for the quarterback position. Here we will examine which signal callers are on the move, ADP-wise, in single quarterback leagues from July to August.

Keep in mind the ADP can vary considerably from single quarterback to super flex or two-quarterback formats. For the most recent and complete ADP data, click here.

INTRODUCTION

The quarterback position, especially in single QB formats, is less volatile than the running back and wide receiver positions. Still, there is movement, and it is worth continuing to track for startup draft purposes and any shifts in value among the position.

Let’s dig in and see what has changed over the last month.

QUARTERBACKS

Here is the current visualization of where quarterbacks are going, per the July ADP.

RISERS

Kenny Pickett, PIT (166.67) +10.16

Was it an impressive rookie season for Kenny Pickett? Unless you consider a touchdown percentage of 1.8% versus an interception rate of 2.3%, impressive…well…no.

Allow us to skip the small talk. Pickett had two games of three interceptions against zero games of more than one passing touchdown.

However, as a rookie, it remains difficult to gauge the entirety of a player’s career based on their introduction to the big leagues. The question becomes, can this young signal-caller show some growth under center? Can he take a step forward?

According to the limited preseason action that has been on display and the corresponding rise in ADP, the general consensus is yes, he can. A little.

Pickett moves up 10 spots and climbs from QB24 to QB20. He represents a bye-week bench option with some upside based on the weapons around him.
