Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen comes into the new season after a disappointing 2022 for his fantasy managers. He’ll look to do better following a 35-touchdown, 14-interception campaign a year ago. Not having to deal with an injured shoulder should definitely help.
Despite the down season, Allen still finished as the 2nd-best QB in fantasy football, according to pro-football-reference.com) — Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs was No. 1. Allen is definitely capable of passing Mahomes for the top spot in the upcoming season.
Below, we look at Josh Allen’s 2023 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.

Josh Allen’s ADP: 15.25
(ADP data courtesy of MyFantasyLeague.com; last updated at time of this publishing – ADPs continually change as more drafts occur)
Allen’s ADP has him getting drafted in the 2nd round (unless you’re in a 16-team league. He’s the No. 2 QB in ADP; Mahomes (12.88) is 1st and the Philadelphia Eagles’ Jalen Hurts (17.69) is 3rd.
Allen finished as the No. 7 overall player in fantasy points last season. If he decides to run the ball less and pass more, he has some serious weapons in WRs Stefon Diggs and Gabriel Davis. Plus, the Bills drafted TE Dalton Kincaid in 1st round out of Utah. With this trio leading Buffalo’s receiving corps, Allen should remain among the top quarterbacks in the NFL — for Buffalo and more importantly, in this case, for fantasy leagues.

Where should you draft Allen?
Although Mahomes is likely to finish above Allen and Hurts has a chance to as well, Allen should be going right in the area he has been going thus far in drafts.
Going early in the 2nd round — a big price to pay for a one-off position in fantasy — is worth it when it comes to Allen. Even in a down season in 2022, he finished as the No. 2 QB and the No. 7 overall player. Getting this production in any position after the 1st round is a solid value.
