The Ultimate 2026 Superflex PPR Mock Draft: QB Runs, Zero RB & Best Values (Ep. 2108) Jul 31, 2026

Show notes

How should you approach a 2026 fantasy football Superflex league? The Fantasy Pros crew puts that question to the test with a full redraft Superflex PPR mock draft featuring Ryan Wormeli, Scott Bogman, Pat Fitzmaurice, and Andrew Erickson.

The mock features three starting wide receivers, seven bench spots, no kickers or defenses, and a Superflex lineup, creating a fascinating battle between early quarterback strategy, zero RB builds, elite tight ends, and waiting on positional value.

One of the biggest storylines is the quarterback rush: eight QBs go in the first round, forcing the analysts to adapt on the fly and raising a major 2026 fantasy football question: should you aggressively draft quarterbacks in Superflex, or let your league mates chase the position while you scoop up elite skill-position talent?
