Jared Goff vs Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough holds a 9.4% edge in Superflex dynasty value.Updated 9/26/2026
THE CASE FOR GOFF
Goff is a bankable QB2 with real QB1 spike weeks in Ben Johnson’s structure. Detroit’s line and weapons keep his floor high even when the splash plays aren’t there. He’s a known commodity with multi-year starting security and immediate points. In Superflex, that weekly stability wins matchups.
THE CASE FOR SHOUGH
Shough is the archetype swing: younger, cheaper insulation, and one real starting window can flip his value fast. New Orleans offers a path to meaningful snaps if he climbs the depth chart and stays healthy. If he hits, you get a starter at a discount; if he misses, you didn’t pay elite capital. He fits rebuild timelines because the upside is value growth, not current production.
VERDICT BY TEAM SITUATION
Goff, easily—take the locked-in weekly starter points over a speculative bet.
Shough if you’re truly reloading and can absorb a zero; otherwise Goff is still the better asset.
It’s not close in certainty—Goff is the safer and more valuable start today, Shough is just the higher-variance lottery ticket.
