The Buffalo Bills’ recent wide receiver departures have sent ripples through the fantasy football world, casting doubt on Josh Allen’s value. However, these doubts are unfounded, and Allen remains a must-buy for any fantasy football competitor aiming for the championship. Here’s why.
First, let’s address the elephant in the room: the loss of Stefan Diggs and Gabe Davis. While significant, this change isn’t the death knell for Allen’s fantasy prospects. As outlined in a detailed analysis at BrainyBallers.com, the Bills are transforming what could have been a stumbling block into a stepping stone. Through strategic acquisitions and development, Buffalo is maintaining a dynamic and versatile group of receivers. All of which promise to keep the offense explosive and keep Allen’s fantasy value high.
Allen’s fantasy stats speak volumes about his capability and resilience as a top-tier quarterback. Last season, he averaged an impressive 24 fantasy points per game. It’s been since 2019 that Allen scored under 300 points in a season and also since he threw for less than 4,000 yards. These numbers don’t just tell a story of consistency; they scream elite fantasy production.
Moreover, Allen’s rushing upside is an undeniable asset. He averages 8.8 rushing touchdowns per season since his entry into the league in 2018. Allen can add this dual-threat dimension to your fantasy lineup that few other quarterbacks can match. This ability to scramble and score with his legs provides a solid floor each week and the potential for explosive performances that can single-handedly carry your team to victory.
Despite this clear evidence of his elite fantasy status, the departures of Diggs and Davis have led some to undervalue Allen. This presents an incredible opportunity for fantasy owners. Allen’s beginning years may have been met with skepticism, but since 2019, he has silenced doubters with his performances. Now, with some speculating a drop in his production, it’s the perfect time to buy in if you’re contending for a title.
Allen’s track record of adaptation and overcoming on-field challenges suggests that he can turn these recent changes to his advantage. The current perception of him potentially being at a “discount” due to the receiver changes only sweetens the deal.
Josh Allen has proven time and again that he is a premier fantasy quarterback. His consistent high-level play, combined with his rushing capabilities, makes him a cornerstone player for any fantasy team. The smart move for contenders is clear: capitalize on any undervaluation and invest in Allen. In a fantasy landscape where certainty is rare, betting on Allen’s proven production is as close to a sure thing as it gets.
