Mike HarmonAug 24, 2026
Harmon laid out their 2026 fantasy quarterback rankings, with Josh Allen far and away No. 1, Drake Maye second and Lamar Jackson third, extending down through Jared Goff at 14. They also singled out Bo Nix as a possible top-three finisher, faded Jayden Daniels out of their top 10, and floated Jordan Love, Jonah Coleman and Keon Coleman as late-round upside plays.

- 1Fantasy Rankings“you look at Josh Allen far and away the number one... Drake May... which is why Lamar Jackson falls to third for me... Caleb Williams at number four... Dak Prescott... just outside the top five, Joe Burrows... Bo Nix comes in at seven for me. Eight is Lawrence because of the legs, Nine Herbert... and then Jalen Hurts rounds out the top ten. / I had him [Mahomes] just outside the top ten / he's right behind Mahomes for me... he's at twelve [Stafford] / He comes in at fourteen [Goff]. The guy that's slid in in between there for me is Baker Mayfield”
- 2Keon Coleman to outplay his draft cost (late round)“we're looking maybe Kean Coleman becomes one of those late round guys that can pop a little bit”
- 3Bo Nix to finish top 3 at his position, by fantasy points“bow Nick is a guy I think as upside, he's a guy that I wouldn't be surprised to finish in that top three”
- 4Jayden Daniels to fall short of his draft cost (the consensus fifth quarterback on the board)“I love Jayden Daniels out of my top ten. He is currently the consensus fifth quarterback on the board.”
- 5Jonah Coleman to outplay his draft cost (late round)“there's the groundswell of support based on Sean Payton's love of Jonah Coleman. Sure, right, so late round sleeper”

How each call scored
5 checkable claims — 2 sleeper calls, 1 fantasy bust call, 1 fantasy ranking and 1 positional finish — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.
It names 7 players and teams, each linked to their own record.
None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in.
Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room.
Each call is scored 0 to 100 against what happened, on its own, by the published methodology. The naive guess is what knowing nothing would have scored on the same calls; the gap, weighted by how hard the call was, is the skill.
