Do enough off-season draft prep and you’ll undoubtedly come across fantasy analysts hyping a 2022 fantasy football contract year players list. The theory is that players, especially those coming off their rookie deals, are extra motivated to perform well this season and break the bank on the open market.

While it does seem like some players do indeed show up to training camp in the shape of their life and there is certainly some precedence to wanting to maximize their offseason value, there is no real corollary evidence that indicates there is a notable increase in output in contract years.

Of course, there are exceptions to that. Undoubtedly plenty of players set to enter unrestricted free agency in 2023 will have standout performances this season. But it just might be us looking for this to happen that makes it just seem more common than it actually is.

Regardless, targeting contract-year players in fantasy football drafts can lead to the occasional breakout performance, but it should just be viewed as a small piece of the draft puzzle. Perhaps used as a tie-breaker between two players who are similarly ranked.

Here are some of the key skill-position players to keep in mind that are currently set to be unrestricted free agents after the 2022 NFL season. For a complete list, bookmark the FullTime Fantasy Contract Year Players tab.

The ages listed are how old players will be in March.

There is a ton of data available to the well-prepared fantasy football drafter to build a championship roster. One of the useful tools is the 2022 fantasy football strength of schedule grid here at FullTime Fantasy.

In addition to breaking down the relative strength of schedule for each key fantasy starting position, our in-depth chart goes well beyond the competition, breaking down kickers, returners, and even evaluating each IDP position.

This is a haven for the various leagues with complex scoring and starting assignments, especially for the growing IDP crowd.

Feel free to bookmark the sortable FullTime Fantasy strength of schedule tool, which will be constantly updated all offseason with injuries and free-agent movements.

Let’s take a look at that grid and see how we can find players to target and others to consider avoiding on draft day and keep reading for a handy recap of the 2022 bye weeks for all 32 teams…

2022 Dynasty QB Rankings

A healthy portion of annual fantasy football enthusiasts are still casual redraft fans who just want to join an office pool or throw together a quick draft to help make those autumn Sundays a little more interesting.

But a quick visit to Twitter is all you need to do to see the growing popularity of dynasty fantasy football leagues. Unlike those one-and-done redraft formats, dynasty leaguers play for keeps. An initial draft means you get to keep those players forever, which places more emphasis on youth and potential.

Scouting and research are more important in dynasty, as finding the next huge breakout star can make your roster a competitive team for years to come.

After writing countless rookie scouting profiles this spring, I have mixed feelings about the incoming rookie class, especially at quarterback. Now that landing spots are known and training camp is right around the corner, it’s time to take a look at my 2022 dynasty QB rankings.

Be sure to sign up for our Discord, as these rankings will be updated often throughout the summer.

  1. Josh Allen (Buffalo Bills)
  2. Justin Herbert (Los Angeles Chargers)

WHERE SHOULD YOU DRAFT your QB in 2022 dynasty leagues?
