2024 Fantasy Outlook
Allen was the top fantasy quarterback last year for the third time in four seasons (he was second in his “off” year) thanks to another campaign of high-volume passing and rushing. He was the only QB ranked top 5 in both pass and rush attempts last season, and nobody has more than Allen’s 173 combined pass/rush TDs the last four years. While he threw a four-year-low 29 TD passes, Allen tied Jalen Hurts with 15 rushing scores, an NFL record for quarterbacks. A midseason shoulder injury and a change at offensive coordinator didn’t bother Allen much, and though he threw a career-high 18 interceptions (2nd), his efficiency otherwise dipped only slightly. He threw deep on 11.4 percent of attempts (9th), and his average target depth and YPA ranked third and 10th, respectively (even if both were three-year lows). Allen didn’t get a lot of help from his receivers. Stefon Diggs (eight drops) struggled in the second half of the season, and Gabe Davis had five games without any catches. Both are now gone, but that doesn't mean the receiving group improved. Third-year pro Khalil Shakir has 4.43 speed but only 61 catches in 31 games. So, the Bills signed Curtis Samuel and then drafted Keon Coleman, a second-round pick who is 6-3 but caught only 55 percent of his targets last year at FSU. Tight end Dalton Kincaid, a 2023 first-round pick, might be the new No. 1 target. But even if the passing efficiency dips -- and Allen's rushing TDs are certain to regress -- his combination of pass/rush volume makes him the favorite for overall-QB1 status again.

RANKS
Efficient in big road win
Allen completed 13 of 19 passes for 139 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions while adding two carries for two yards in the Bills' 31-10 win over the Dolphins on Thursday night. He also fumbled once but recovered.
ANALYSIS
As the combination of Allen's final line and the final score implies, the star signal-caller didn't have to do much to ensure a comfortable victory for Buffalo. James Cook and the defense did a lot of the heavy lifting for the Bills, although Allen had a hand in Cook's first of three touchdowns on the night by connecting with him on a 17-yard scoring pass in the first quarter. Otherwise, Allen focused almost all his attention on Khalil Shakir and Dalton Kincaid, who were on the receiving end of nine of the quarterback's completions and 87 of his passing yards. Allen could be pressed to do more in a Week 3 Monday night home matchup against the Jaguars on Sept. 23.

2018
Allen fell just short last year in his bid to three-peat as the top fantasy QB, finishing second with a remarkably similar season to the one before despite playing through an injury to his throwing elbow. He came within 124 passing yards, one TD pass and one rushing yard of matching his 2021 numbers (and, like in 2021, the Bills lost in the divisional playoffs). Allen attempted 79 fewer passes than he did the previous year, in part because he played 16 games instead of 17, making up for it by increasing his YPA from 6.8 to 7.6 (8th) while his average target depth jumped a full yard to 9.2 (3rd). Allen’s completion rate held steady at 63.3 percent, though it again was far off his impressive 2020 percentage (69.2). That works well enough when a QB gets healthy passing volume, completes passes downfield and adds elite rushing production. The only negative is a receiving corps that looks dicey behind standout WR Stefon Diggs. Gabe Davis disappointed last season, and while the team drafted Dalton Kincaid in the first round to join Dawson Knox, the learning curve for rookie tight ends is usually steep. In the backfield, Buffalo replaced Devin Singletary with Damien Harris, who has 105 fewer career catches and could take more of the goal-line carries. Nevertheless, Allen should again challenge for QB1 in fantasy thanks to his potentially league-leading combination of pass and rush attempts.
