Lamar Jackson vs Trey McBride
Lamar Jackson holds a 12.9% edge in Superflex dynasty value.Updated 8/26/2026
THE CASE FOR JACKSON
Lamar Jackson is a perennial top-five dynasty QB with elite rushing upside. He's just 29, locked in as Baltimore's franchise cornerstone, and under contract for several more years. His rushing floor and ceiling give you a weekly advantage, especially in Superflex. Lamar's supporting cast has improved, boosting his passing efficiency. He's a plug-and-play starter who can win you weeks.
THE CASE FOR MCBRIDE
Trey McBride just broke out as a top fantasy TE, and at 26, he's entering his prime. Arizona is building around him and Kyler Murray, and McBride's target share is elite for the position. The positional scarcity at TE gives him outsized dynasty value. He's insulated from most week-to-week variance and could easily finish as the TE2 or TE3 in 2024 and beyond.
VERDICT BY TEAM SITUATION
If you're contending, Lamar Jackson's elite QB production is more valuable—stick with or target him in Superflex.
If rebuilding, McBride's age, positional advantage, and ascending value make him the better dynasty asset to target.
The value gap is real but not massive; team needs and league format should drive your decision.
