Average Draft Position (ADP) can vary wildly from platform to platform. That's why we display multiple sources when presenting the Footballguys ADP.
On one site, you could be drafting against people who overvalue a player. On another site, that same player could be vastly undervalued.
Let's concentrate on the ADP from ESPN and find the values at quarterback when you draft on that platform. Your competitors will try to leave good players for you to draft. Let them.

ESPN Value: Dak Prescott, Dallas
- What ESPN ADP says: Depending on the fandom, people have either given up or are mocking Jerry Jones and the Cowboys.
- Why the ADP is wrong: While it's easy to argue that Dallas gets more coverage than their recent record should warrant, the Cowboys offense is usually really good. When Prescott plays a full season, he has excelled as a fantasy quarterback: (tied for QB4 in 2023 and QB8 in 2021) and was easily the QB1 before getting hurt in 2020. When you're taking a quarterback later in the draft, you love acquiring high-potential guys. That's exactly what Dak Prescott is, and he's usually available in the 11th round on ESPN.
