Carson Beck a Worthy Investment in the Later Rounds of Rookie Drafts
In what was considered a weak quarterback class, Miami (FL.) product Carson Beck lasted until the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, when the Arizona Cardinals made him the third quarterback off the board at pick No. 65. With the Cardinals already in a contract dispute with presumed 2026 starter Jacoby Brissett and fielding one of the weakest rosters in the league, there's a sense the team could have an eye toward the 2027 Draft. If that is truly the case, Beck has one of the best chances to find starting work this season of any of the 10 quarterbacks drafted in April, making him a worthwhile pick in the later rounds of superflex rookie drafts. While his chances of long-term fantasy success are slim, scarcity at the position tends to allow quarterbacks to hold value. With fantasy depth always challenged by year's end, if Beck does indeed close out the season by starting games, a value bump could then allow dynasty managers to flip him for at least what they spent, essentially moving a rookie pick into what projects to be a much stronger 2027 class.
