Superflex Dynasty Rankings: 2022 Mid-Season Update

Many dynasty football leagues now play in a superflex format. There are stark contrasts in quarterback value versus other skill positions in superflex dynasty football rankings due to positional scarcity, so you’ll notice that I have many quarterbacks ranked higher overall. Beyond that, there are even nuances that change where quarterbacks are ranked within the position.

Quarterback age and starting longevity are far bigger priorities in superflex formats, which changes how I have quarterbacks ranked between the formats. In 1QB leagues, quarterback prospects with upside are coveted over safe starters because backup quarterbacks are rarely needed outside of injuries and bye weeks. However, in superflex leagues, consistent producers at QB2 and QB3 on dynasty rosters are necessary depth since it’s beneficial for the vast majority of teams start two quarterbacks every week.

The influx of a talented 2022 rookie class has shaken up these superflex dynasty rankings a bit, as quite a few quarterbacks gained receiving weapons and upgrades to their surrounding cast during the NFL Draft. Many players’ values are also dependent on whether a roster is contending for a title or in the process of rebuilding, but in general, dynasty rankings align much more closely with rest-of-season redraft rankings in-season. Here are my updated top-200 ranked players assuming a superflex format with PPR scoring (you can find my 1QB dynasty rankings here) following the NFL trade deadline. And be sure to check back for updated superflex dynasty rankings throughout the season!

Superflex Dynasty Rankings

Last updated on Thursday, November 3rd.

Rank	Pos Rk	Player	Pos	Team	Comments
1	QB1	Josh Allen	QB	BUF
2	QB2	Patrick Mahomes	QB	KC
3	QB3	Lamar Jackson	QB	BAL
4	QB4	Jalen Hurts	QB	PHI	Hurts's rushing was never in question, but his passing has improved behind a top-5 OL, increasing his job security.
5	QB5	Justin Herbert	QB	LAC
6	QB6	Kyler Murray	QB	ARI
7	QB7	Joe Burrow	QB	CIN
8	QB8	Deshaun Watson	QB	CLE	Watson's value is still somewhat depressed and should be a priority buy before he steps back onto the field.
9	WR1	Justin Jefferson	WR	MIN
10	RB1	Saquon Barkley	RB	NYG	Barkley was a massive buy low all offseason, and while his future is unclear, he's the definite no. 1 RB ROS barring injury.
11	WR2	Jaylen Waddle	WR	MIA	An elite talent with an elite playcaller for the foreseeable future, Waddle is in the top tier of WRs but not valued as such by many.
12	WR3	Ja'Marr Chase	WR	CIN	Chase's absence until later in the season is a tie-breaker for contenders, but it shouldn't drop him out of this top tier of WRs.
13	RB2	Christian McCaffrey	RB	SF	McCaffrey's durability remains a concern, but he's an elite RB and week winner as long as he's on the field.
14	QB9	Tua Tagovailoa	QB	MIA	If Tua can assuage injury worries, he remains a high-ceiling asset in McDaniel's offense with Hill and Waddle.
15	QB10	Dak Prescott	QB	DAL
16	QB11	Justin Fields	QB	CHI
17	QB12	Trevor Lawrence	QB	JAX
18	QB13	Trey Lance	QB	SF	The floor is much lower for Lance coming back from a major injury in 2023, but his ceiling remains immensely high.
19	TE1	Mark Andrews	TE	BAL
20	TE2	Travis Kelce	TE	KC	Age be damned. This tier of uber productive veterans can win titles for teams in 2022, which is what matters in-season.
21	WR4	Cooper Kupp	WR	LAR
22	WR5	Stefon Diggs	WR	BUF
23	WR6	Tyreek Hill	WR	MIA
24	RB3	Travis Etienne	RB	JAX	With Robinson traded to NYJ, Etienne has become a workhorse with elite PPR upside ROS.
25	RB4	Jonathan Taylor	RB	IND	While Taylor is a long-term RB1, the ankle sprain could be an issue ROS, and IND's offense hasn't been efficient overall.
26	RB5	Austin Ekeler	RB	LAC	Ekeler is close to a precipitous drop in value due to his age, but he remains a strong RB1 in-season for contending teams.
27	RB6	Kenneth Walker	RB	SEA
28	TE3	Kyle Pitts	TE	ATL	Pitts remains a top dynasty TE, but it's apparent now that he probably won't help contending teams much in 2022.
29	RB7	D'Andre Swift	RB	DET	Swift is explosive, but he's struggled to stay on the field and has been losing red-zone carries to Williams even when healthy.
30	RB8	Nick Chubb	RB	CLE
31	RB9	Derrick Henry	RB	TEN
32	RB10	Josh Jacobs	RB	LVR
33	RB11	Alvin Kamara	RB	NO
34	WR7	AJ Brown	WR	PHI
35	WR8	Amon-Ra St. Brown	WR	DET	St. Brown has shown enough talent to overcome his lack of draft capital long-term no matter who's the QB in DET.
36	WR9	CeeDee Lamb	WR	DAL
37	WR10	Tee Higgins	WR	CIN
38	WR11	Drake London	WR	ATL	Lack of passing volume is hurting London's ROS potential, but he still has immense long-term upside.
39	RB12	Breece Hall	RB	NYJ	The injury drops Hall, but his long-term potential keeps his value high in dynasty.
40	WR12	Chris Olave	WR	NO
41	WR13	Marquise Brown	WR	BAL	The foot injury derails Brown's 2022 season, but he's still just 25 years old and should be ARI's WR1 going forward.
42	WR14	DeVonta Smith	WR	PHI
43	WR15	DK Metcalf	WR	SEA
44	WR16	Davante Adams	WR	LVR
45	WR17	Deebo Samuel	WR	SF
46	WR18	Jameson Williams	WR	DET	Many have forgotten about Williams while on IR, but he still has elite upside, especially when DET gets a QB upgrade in 2023.
47	TE4	George Kittle	TE	SF
48	QB14	Kirk Cousins	QB	MIN
49	QB15	Derek Carr	QB	LVR
50	QB16	Matthew Stafford	QB	LAR
51	WR19	Courtland Sutton	WR	DEN
52	WR20	Diontae Johnson	WR	PIT	With Claypool traded to CHI, both Johnson and Pickens are slated for higher target share ROS and beyond.
53	WR21	George Pickens	WR	PIT
54	WR22	Garrett Wilson	WR	NYJ
55	WR23	Chris Godwin	WR	TB
56	WR24	DJ Moore	WR	CAR
57	WR25	Michael Pittman	WR	IND
58	WR26	Amari Cooper	WR	CLE	Cooper has flashed with Brissett and has top-10 WR upside once Watson is back from his suspension.
59	WR27	DeAndre Hopkins	WR	ARI
60	WR28	Mike Evans	WR	TB
61	RB13	Najee Harris	RB	PIT
62	RB14	Dalvin Cook	RB	MIN
63	RB15	Joe Mixon	RB	CIN
64	RB16	Dameon Pierce	RB	HOU
65	QB17	Zach Wilson	QB	NYJ
66	QB18	Kenny Pickett	QB	PIT
67	QB19	Russell Wilson	QB	DEN
68	WR29	Rashod Bateman	WR	BAL
69	WR30	Terry McLaurin	WR	WAS
70	WR31	Jahan Dotson	WR	WAS
71	RB17	Leonard Fournette	RB	TB
72	RB18	Aaron Jones	RB	GB
73	RB19	Rhamondre Stevenson	RB	NE
74	RB20	Javonte Williams	RB	DEN	Additional LCL and other complications to Williams's ACL injury could threaten his efficiency even once back in 2023.
75	QB20	Geno Smith	QB	SEA	Smith hasn't written back to those who wrote him off, and he's looking like an upside QB2 in superflex ROS and maybe beyond.
76	QB21	Jared Goff	QB	DET	DET's defense will continue forcing Goff into shootouts, and he has the weapons to be a weekly QB2 ROS with upside.
77	QB22	Daniel Jones	QB	NYG
78	RB21	Miles Sanders	RB	PHI
79	RB22	Khalil Herbert	RB	CHI	With CHI moving to more of a committee backfield, Herbert is flex-worthy ROS and should step into the lead role in 2023.
80	RB23	AJ Dillon	RB	GB
81	QB23	Mac Jones	QB	NE
82	WR32	Brandon Aiyuk	WR	SF
83	WR33	Mike Williams	WR	LAC
84	WR34	Gabriel Davis	WR	BUF
85	WR35	Jerry Jeudy	WR	DEN
86	RB24	Isiah Pacheco	RB	KC	The market hasn't caught up to Pacheco, who looks like the most explosive RB in KC. He's a CEH injury away from top-10 RB upside.
87	RB25	Tony Pollard	RB	DAL	The same goes for Pollard. Elliott will steal work when healthy, but Pollard has elite upside if Elliott were to miss more time ROS.
88	TE5	Dallas Goedert	TE	PHI
89	TE6	Dalton Schultz	TE	DAL
90	TE7	Greg Dulcich	TE	DEN	Even with DEN's offense in shambles, Dulcich has flashed big-play ability and could be a top-10 TE ROS and beyond.
91	TE8	Darren Waller	TE	LVR
92	WR36	Skyy Moore	WR	KC	The trade for Toney reflects poorly on KC's view of Moore. Even if he gets more snaps, it's likely there's no true no. 1 WR in KC.
93	WR37	Jakobi Meyers	WR	NE	Meyers has quietly been a strong WR2 with high target volume each week no matter who's been starting at QB for NE.
94	RB26	James Robinson	RB	NYJ	Robinson has a second chance to assert himself as the lead back for the Jets, but it's likely to remain a committee regardless.
95	RB27	Clyde Edwards-Helaire	RB	KC
96	TE9	Pat Freiermuth	TE	PIT
97	TE10	TJ Hockenson	TE	MIN	Hockenson isn't an elite talent and doesn't have a path to high target volume with Jefferson the clear no. 1 in MIN.
98	RB28	David Montgomery	RB	CHI
99	RB29	James Conner	RB	ARI
100	RB30	Damien Harris	RB	NE
101	RB31	Ezekiel Elliott	RB	DAL
102	WR38	Brandin Cooks	WR	HOU
103	WR39	Christian Kirk	WR	JAX
104	QB24	Ryan Tannehill	QB	TEN
105	QB25	Malik Willis	QB	TEN
106	RB32	James Cook	RB	BUF	The trade for Hines caps Cook's ceiling ROS, but his long-term potential in a Josh Allen-led offense is tantalizing.
107	WR40	Treylon Burks	WR	TEN	Burks didn't show much even prior to his turf toe injury, which now threatens to derail his entire rookie season.
108	QB26	Aaron Rodgers	QB	GB	Both veteran QBs have struggled this season with the loss of surrounding talent, and neither is a reliable option going forward.
109	QB27	Tom Brady	QB	TB
110	RB33	Raheem Mostert	RB	MIA	Mostert has a long injury history, but if he can stay on the field, he's a strong RB2 ROS with upside in MIA's explosive offense.
111	RB34	Kareem Hunt	RB	CLE
112	RB35	Brian Robinson	RB	WAS
113	WR41	Wan'Dale Robinson	WR	NYG	With Toney gone, Robinson has immense upside as the no. 1 target for the Giants ROS and potentially beyond.
114	WR42	Kadarius Toney	WR	KC	The talent is there with Toney, but availability and off-field issues are the concern. Don't overreact to the trade to KC.
115	TE11	Mike Gesicki	TE	MIA	Gesicki ultimately wasn't traded, but his upside remains if he goes to a team that uses him more as a receiver in the offseason.
116	TE12	David Njoku	TE	CLE
117	RB36	Elijah Mitchell	RB	SF	With McCaffrey now in SF but Wilson gone, Mitchell becomes an upside handcuff in an efficient rushing offense.
118	RB37	Alexander Mattison	RB	MIN
119	RB38	Rachaad White	RB	TB
120	RB39	Antonio Gibson	RB	WAS	Robinson's usage might actually be a blessing in disguise for Gibson if he continues to see more passing down work.
121	RB40	JK Dobbins	RB	BAL	The continued issues with his knee makes Dobbins's future very much uncertain whether in BAL or elsewhere.
122	WR43	Romeo Doubs	WR	GB
123	WR44	Elijah Moore	WR	NYJ	It's unclear why Moore has seen scant usage with Wilson under center, but his future is murky in NY unless something changes.
124	WR45	Calvin Ridley	WR	JAX	Players who miss significant time are always risky, but Ridley still has WR2 upside when healthy with a fresh start in JAX next year.
125	WR46	Allen Robinson	WR	LAR
126	WR47	Keenan Allen	WR	LAC
127	WR48	Allen Lazard	WR	GB
128	WR49	Darnell Mooney	WR	CHI	Claypool's presence could actually benefit Mooney by drawing some coverage and opening up some downfield shots.
129	WR50	Tyler Boyd	WR	CIN	Boyd should see added target volume for as long as Chase is sidelined with his hip injury.
130	WR51	Curtis Samuel	WR	WAS
131	WR52	Isaiah McKenzie	WR	BUF
132	RB41	Devin Singletary	RB	BUF	Singletary will have big games here or there, but this looks to continue being a committee backfield in BUF.
133	RB42	D'Onta Foreman	RB	CAR	With McCaffrey gone, both CAR RBs have weekly flex upside if they can find the end zone.
134	RB43	Jamaal Williams	RB	DET	Williams has weekly TD upside as a flex play even with Swift healthy and RB2 potential if Swift were to miss more time.
135	RB44	Eno Benjamin	RB	ARI	We've seen that Benjamin has weekly RB1 upside if Conner were to miss more time this season.
136	QB28	Sam Ehlinger	QB	IND	Ehlinger will get the remainder of the season to prove himself and can be a useable QB2 in the meantime.
137	QB29	Jimmy Garoppolo	QB	SF
138	WR53	Michael Thomas	WR	NO	He still has WR1 upside when healthy, but that doesn't seem to happen very often, and Thomas is nearing the age of 30.
139	WR54	Rondale Moore	WR	ARI
140	TE13	Evan Engram	TE	JAX
141	TE14	Zach Ertz	TE	ARI
142	RB45	Cordarrelle Patterson	RB	ATL	It's a messy committee in ATL, but the rushing game seems to be efficient with enough volume to support two flex options.
143	RB46	Tyler Allgeier	RB	ATL
144	RB47	Michael Carter	RB	NYJ	The Jets clearly didn't trust Carter to carry the load, and Robinson's presence makes this a messy committee again.
145	RB48	Deon Jackson	RB	IND	We've seen that Jackson has high upside when Taylor is out, and his value has increased significantly now that Hines is in BUF.
146	RB49	Dontrell Hilliard	RB	TEN	Hilliard has flashed as the no. 2 behind Henry and has strong RB2 potential if Henry were to miss time.
147	RB50	Cam Akers	RB	LAR	It's unclear what the rift is between Akers and LAR's coaching staff, but the Rams' rushing offense has struggled in general.
148	RB51	Darrell Henderson	RB	LAR
149	WR55	JuJu Smith-Schuster	WR	KC	Mahomes wasn't lying when he said that the ball would be spread around more. JuJu even more iffy now with Toney in KC.
150	WR56	Donovan Peoples-Jones	WR	CLE	Peoples-Jones has flashed good contested catch ability downfield and could have high weekly upside once Watson is back.
151	WR57	Michael Gallup	WR	DAL
152	WR58	Chase Claypool	WR	CHI	The trade helps Fields and Mooney, but it's unclear how much more target volume Claypool will see in CHI.
153	RB52	Kenyan Drake	RB	BAL	With Dobbins missing more time, both Drake and Edwards have some potential in BAL's rushing attack.
154	RB53	Gus Edwards	RB	BAL
155	WR59	Tyler Lockett	WR	SEA
156	WR60	Adam Thielen	WR	MIN
157	RB54	Nyheim Hines	RB	BUF	It's likely to be a messy committee in BUF with Hines and Cook sharing passing down work.
158	RB55	Melvin Gordon	RB	DEN	Gordon is the "lead back", but Murray figures to steal GL touches with Edmonds taking passing down work.
159	RB56	Chase Edmonds	RB	DEN
160	TE15	Tyler Higbee	TE	LAR
161	TE16	Gerald Everett	TE	LAC
162	TE17	Robert Tonyan	TE	GB
163	TE18	Dawson Knox	TE	BUF
164	QB30	Desmond Ridder	QB	ATL	If Mariota were to be benched or miss time, ATL has played well enough to perhaps miss out on a top QB in the draft.
165	QB31	Sam Howell	QB	WAS	With Wentz on IR, Howell is a Heinicke injury or bad game away from taking the starting job in WAS.
166	WR61	Khalil Shakir	WR	BUF	With Crowder hurt, Shakir is a Davis or McKenzie injury away from major contributions even as a rookie.
167	RB57	Jeff Wilson Jr.	RB	MIA	Wilson has RB2 upside considering Mostert's injury history and could even carve out a role alongside Mostert.
168	RB58	Chuba Hubbard	RB	CAR
169	QB32	PJ Walker	QB	CAR	This tier of quarterbacks have starting jobs for now and are useable QBs, but they lack job security and have low weekly floors.
170	QB33	Marcus Mariota	QB	ATL
171	QB34	Andy Dalton	QB	NO
172	QB35	Taylor Heinicke	QB	WAS
173	TE19	Taysom Hill	TE	NO
174	QB36	Davis Mills	QB	HOU	HOU is likely to replace Mills next offseason, making him just an unreliable QB2 for the remainder of this year.
175	RB59	Kenneth Gainwell	RB	PHI	Sanders is the clear lead back in PHI, and it would likely to be a split backfield even if Sanders were to miss time.
176	RB60	Jerick McKinnon	RB	KC	McKinnon remains just a stash but would have RB2 potential in the event of an injury to CEH or Pacheco.
177	WR62	Josh Palmer	WR	LAC	Palmer has some upside for as long as Mike Williams is out but hasn't shown much thus far.
178	WR63	Christian Watson	WR	GB
179	TE20	Trey McBride	TE	ARI
180	TE21	Noah Fant	TE	SEA
181	RB61	Rashaad Penny	RB	SEA	Penny has an uphill battle to get healthy for 2023 and carve out a role somewhere this coming offseason.
182	WR64	Alec Pierce	WR	IND
183	WR65	Mecole Hardman	WR	KC	Hardman will have his blowup games, but good luck trying to guess which weeks they'll come, especially with Toney now in KC.
184	WR66	Hunter Renfrow	WR	LVR
185	WR67	Zay Jones	WR	JAX
186	WR68	Robert Woods	WR	TEN
187	RB62	Zamir White	RB	LVR
188	TE22	Hayden Hurst	TE	CIN
189	TE23	Tyler Conklin	TE	NYJ
190	TE24	Logan Thomas	TE	WAS
191	WR69	Russell Gage	WR	TB
192	RB63	Samaje Perine	RB	CIN
193	RB64	Chris Evans	RB	CIN
194	RB65	Pierre Strong	RB	NE
195	QB37	Bailey Zappe	QB	NE	It's Mac Jones's job, but Zappe showed enough flashes to be worth stashing in superflex.
196	QB38	Jameis Winston	QB	NO
197	QB39	Skylar Thompson	QB	MIA
198	RB66	Isaiah Spiller	RB	LAC
199	RB67	Joshua Kelley	RB	LAC
200	RB68	Sony Michel	RB	LAC
