1. Locked On Fantasy Football compares Dak Prescott, Brock Purdy, and Bo Nix as polarizing 2026 fantasy quarterbacks. 2. Michelle Modjuk hosts with Vinny Iyer, and both use quarterback rankings, points per game, and roster context to make their cases. 3. The episode asks which of the three quarterbacks belongs on draft boards first and which one gives the best value. 4. Dak Prescott finished as quarterback nine on average last season at 18.5 points per game and quarterback six overall. 5. Vinny notes that Dak averaged 19.6 points per game from Weeks 1 through 17 and ranked above Caleb Williams and Jalen Hurts in that span. 6. Michelle argues Dak is at quarterback 11 in consensus rankings and could be a good value because people are not excited to draft him. 7. Vinny points to Dak's durability concerns, saying his health has been an issue in 2020, 2022, and 2024. 8. The hosts also mention Brian Schottenheimer, George Pickens, CeeDee Lamb, Jake Ferguson, and the Cowboys' rebuilt offensive line. 9. They frame Dak as a middle-round quarterback who is safer than some younger names but less appealing than higher-upside options. 10. Brock Purdy is presented as quarterback 12 in consensus rankings and a harder player to evaluate because of injuries and roster turnover. 11. Michelle says Purdy ranked sixth in fantasy points per game among quarterbacks with at least 30 starts since 2022. 12. She also cites his passing-touchdown rate, noting that only Lamar Jackson has been higher since Purdy entered the league. 13. Vinny says Purdy was on pace for close to 40 passing touchdowns and five to six rushing touchdowns before last season ended. 14. The hosts reference Mike Evans, Ricky Pearsall, Christian Kirk, CMC, and George Kittle as part of the 49ers' evolving supporting cast. 15. They argue that Purdy's offense remains productive even when the personnel changes around him. 16. Bo Nix is the final quarterback, and the hosts describe him as inconsistent despite a QB11 fantasy finish and QB15 consensus ranking. 17. Vinny notes Nix averaged 17.9 points per game last year and 18.7 points per game as a rookie. 18. The discussion covers Jalen Waddell, Courtland Sutton, Davis Webb, the Broncos' defense, and Nix's rushing output of about 300 yards and five touchdowns. 19. The tone is conversational and debate-driven, with Michelle and Vinny repeatedly weighing floor against ceiling. 20. Fans who want quarterback draft debates will like this episode, while managers seeking one clear ranking may skip it.
