Is Patrick Mahomes Still a Top-Five Dynasty Quarterback?
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee) is an undisputed MVP finalist every year, but his fantasy value has taken a hit in recent years. He has ranked outside the top 10 fantasy quarterbacks in each of the last two seasons, creating some doubts about whether he can be a top fantasy option in dynasty leagues long-term. The good news is that Mahomes, who is coming back from a torn ACL, should be healthy for most of the 2026 season, and he still has a very long career ahead of him. Currently 30 years old, we could see the Texas Tech product maintain superstardom in the NFL for the next decade-plus. With that being said, if his mobility declines as he gets older, he might struggle to produce as many fantasy points as some of football's run-heavy quarterbacks. That consideration is baked into RotoBaller's latest dynasty rankings, which currently have Mahomes as the overall QB8. That puts him in the fourth tier of quarterbacks, alongside Joe Burrow and Jalen Hurts. Fantasy managers should eventually explore selling high on Mahomes because of his name value, but they might wait to do so until after he's recovered from his knee injury.
