All Flock Fantasy insights about Quentin Johnston
PositiveValueAug 24, 2026

The source indicates he is expected to be healthy moving forward despite the scary initial appearance.NegativeInjuryAug 18, 2026

The source selected Quentin Johnston as their fourth wide receiver, though they expressed concern that having to draft him at the 6-7 turn represented a worst-case scenario for their roster construction.PositiveBreakoutAug 11, 2026
Quentin Johnston is a high-priority draft target who should be ranked well ahead of his current ADP on ESPN, Yahoo, and Sleeper. He finished as the WR26 in points per game last season and is expected to improve due to an upgraded offensive line, better coaching, and reduced target competition following the departure of Keenan Allen.NegativeProjectionAug 11, 2026

WR taken at 8.11 per the source's draft sheets, preferred over Sleeper ADP consensus (Trevor Lawrence, Ronda Gatson, Dalton Kay, George Kittle). The source states 'However, if you're listening to our draft sheets, we do have that as Quinton Johnston. So, we'll take Johnston here at the end of the eighth.' This pick satisfies the four-WR requirement by round 8. The source's draft sheets rank Quinton Johnston higher than Sleeper ADP options, and the source takes him in the eighth round as a preferred wide receiver pick.PositiveValueAug 9, 2026
The source drafted Quentin Johnston at 7.08, noting that while he could potentially be drafted later based on ADP, he was the highest-ranked player available on their board.PositiveValueAug 7, 2026

Quentin Johnston was selected at pick 7.05 in the mock draft. The source called it a completely understandable pick, indicating approval of the selection and ADP alignment. Quentin Johnston is the source's next highest-ranked player after RJ Harvey is selected, indicating solid ranking conviction.NegativeValueAug 2, 2026
ESPN ADP has Quintin Johnston as the pick at the 5.01 turn; source notes this as one platform's consensus but prefers Luther Burden and Trevion Henderson based on personal rankings.PositiveValueJul 26, 2026

Speaker absolutely loves Quentin Johnston and used to be able to draft him 5–6 rounds after Ladd McConkey, but people have gotten smart and moved Johnston up dramatically in drafts. Johnston dominated McConkey in fantasy football last season despite being only a couple months older than McConkey.PositiveValueJun 16, 2026
Quentin Johnston is one of the analyst's highest-ranked names in the draft.PositiveValueApr 30, 2026
Quentin Johnston is WR26 in points per game but being drafted close to WR52, allowing analyst to rank him 15 spots lower than where he finished last year in what projects to be a better offense and still expect to win a lot of money because of it.PositiveValueJan 29, 2026
Quentin Johnston, drafted by Puka One as his most-drafted WR in the 70s, delivered 12.2 PPG and was instrumental in a $50,000 DFS win on Underdog. Johnston outperformed Lad Mcconi (11.3 PPG) and was the target of Puka One's preference throughout the season. Ranked WR35 by Puka One but currently WR42 on Underdog, Johnston shows consistent year-over-year improvement (WR77 rookie, WR40 year two, WR36 year three). The Chargers offensive line is expected to improve if health holds, and Puka One expects to draft him frequently due to market undervaluation.NegativeProjectionDec 11, 2025
Unlikely to produce; plays for Chargers, which project to be one of the league's worst offenses; faces Kansas City Chiefs in KC this week. Amon-ra St. Brown wants him to perform but does not expect it.NegativeBustDec 8, 2025
Joe Burrow's number one drafted receiver in underdog baseball contests at WR79 ADP, initially described as 'Immaculate' and delivering early-season value. However, not a reliable playoff option; he scored a touchdown in the most recent week but only received three targets, making him touchdown-dependent. Joe Burrow explicitly states 'I would never want to tell anybody to start him' in the playoffs, though anything at this point is 'just sprinkles on top of the cake' after his early-season returns.NegativeProjectionNo date
Outproduced Ladd McConkey last year with 12.2 fantasy points per game compared to McConkey's 11.3; both receivers should see production jumps this season with the departure of Keenan Allen and improvements to the offensive line and coaching staff, though Flock Fantasy is more excited about McConkey's jump.PositiveValueNo date
Ceedee Lamb loves Quentin Johnston and hates passing on him, but passes at pick 77 due to positional need for running back volume. Johnston is drafted at pick 78 in this mock, part of the expected wave of wide receivers coming off the board in the 78–83 range.PositiveValueNo date
Flock Fantasy made Johnston their most drafted player in fantasy football over the past two years and credits him with printing arguably the best late-round pick in fantasy last year. The source argues people overreacted to drops because they are visually obvious, but Johnston's ability to get open and draw targets made him a strong value despite the drop narrative. This success demonstrates that route-running ability and target volume are more predictive than visible drops.PositiveValueNo date
Quentin Johnston was secured at pick 4.10 in a 10-team league mock draft, demonstrating beautiful WR value available in the middle rounds when anchoring with elite RBs and TE early; this is part of a strategy that leverages 10-team format depth.NegativeValueNo date
The source notes that Quentin Johnston was drafted early in their best ball portfolio but his ADP has risen so much that 'it's impossible to take him now,' indicating the player is now overpriced relative to the source's conviction.NegativeRoleNo date
Highest-ranked receiver on the board for this drafter, but passed due to roster construction; already had Bowers (tight end) from the same Chargers offense, so avoided Johnston to prevent overexposure to one team's passing game.PositiveValueNo date
Highest-ranked player available at the time of selection but passed over due to positional overlap with Bowers already on the roster. Indicates strong ranking conviction despite not being drafted in this instance. Later drafted as third wide receiver in the build, part of wide receiver group including Pickens, Burden, Jamo, and Metchie.PositiveValueNo date
Had an ADP around pick 100 and was the analyst's most drafted wide receiver at one point, but his value has risen significantly since then.PositiveValueNo date
Quentin Johnston's ADP has risen significantly to the 6-7 turn, making him much tougher to justify drafting compared to last year when he was a round-nine target and the speaker's most-drafted player; while he won substantial money last season, the current price is harder to justify going all-in on him.PositiveRoleNo date
Selected as a bench wide receiver in the Yahoo mock draft, representing depth at the position.PositiveProjectionNo date
Quentin Johnston is the drafter's highest-ranked player and is taken as a bench receiver with plenty of upside.PositiveProjectionNo date
Quentin Johnston crushed last year by going well ahead of his WR70 ADP, generating significant profit for the drafter.PositiveRoleNo date
Quentin Johnston is the team's running back three, and the analyst considers the overall running back room 'very solid.'NegativeValueNo date
