Joe Burrow is turning into one of the top quarterbacks in the league.
But being the best quarterback doesn’t always translate to a great fantasy quarterback. Some offenses are built in different ways that don’t tailor to the fantasy scoring system.
Field Yates, an ESPN Insider, detailed why Burrow is turning into a great option in fantasy, too.
“I believe Joe Burrow is a legitimate franchise quarterback,” Yates said. “Top 5, Top 8, Top 10, wherever you decided he falls in your quarterback, he’s awesome. Beyond that, much improved offensive line, and if you’re going around ranking the best 1-2-3 wide receiver groups in the NFL, I’m not sure how many teams are better than the Cincinnati Bengals right now.”

Yates went on to mention Ja’Marr Chase as a big reason Burrow will be at the top of fantasy rankings this year. The two had a strong connection at LSU and have continued that trend into the pro ranks.
