Malik Willis vs Ty Simpson
Ty Simpson holds a 14.2% edge in Superflex dynasty value.Updated 10/1/2026
THE CASE FOR WILLIS
Willis still has a plausible path to usable Superflex weeks because he’s one injury away from starts, and his rushing can buoy fantasy output. He’s closer to the payoff window than most QB3/4 types, which matters for contenders. The market dip makes him a cheap bet if you need a QB room plug. Ceiling is limited, but the floor of “spot starter with legs” is real.
THE CASE FOR SIMPSON
Simpson is a longer-shot development stash, but he’s younger and could gain value fast if he climbs a depth chart. His current price bakes in low probability, which is exactly what you want for a rebuild dart. If you believe in the talent, you’re buying optionality, not points. He needs a clear roster path to matter, and that’s the risk.
VERDICT BY TEAM SITUATION
Take Malik Willis for the nearer-term start equity and rushing-driven spike weeks.
Take Ty Simpson as the cheaper, younger lottery ticket with a longer runway.
It’s close, but the 22.8% market gap is fair—Willis is the better bet to matter soon, Simpson the better bet to gain value later.
