How Long Can Rushing QBs Stay Elite? | Dynasty Fantasy Football Podcast Ep. 935

Should Dynasty Managers Sell Aging Rushing Quarterbacks? Mobile quarterbacks can become fantasy football cheat codes, but what happens when the rushing production starts disappearing? Garret Price and Rich Dotson examine how some of fantasy football's most productive rushing quarterbacks aged after turning 30 and what the historical results could mean for today's dynasty market. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Garret examines seven retired quarterbacks who rushed for more than 2,400 yards before turning 30. Six experienced a decline in fantasy points per game from ages 30 through 35, creating an important question for Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen, Jalen Hurts, and Kyler Murray. The takeaway isn't that every mobile quarterback will collapse. Instead, dynasty managers may need to reconsider how long they should pay elite prices for production heavily dependent on rushing. That conversation also creates an argument for quarterbacks like Jared Goff, whose fantasy value may age more gracefully. The guys finish with Adjust the Ranks, highlighting Javonte Williams as a potentially undervalued running back and Makai Lemon as a young receiver beginning to demand a larger role.
