Ty Simpson — 2026 Fantasy Outlook

The case for drafting him

Ty Simpson is on the Los Angeles Rams roster at quarterback, and that alone puts him in a conversation most fantasy drafters will skip entirely. In deeper formats or dynasty leagues bleeding into redraft, a QB on a competent NFL roster carries at least theoretical upside. His bye is Week 11, which is a manageable scheduling note. The honest case for drafting him is thin in standard 12-team formats, but it exists at the margins: roster depth, streaming desperation, or a late-season handcuff in a league that rewards quarterback points heavily.

What the model projects

The projection is 163.8 half-PPR fantasy points for the season. Simpson ranks QB28 at his position and #482 overall. His draft value is -103.6, meaning the projection sits 103.6 points below the replacement-level baseline for quarterbacks in a 12-team half-PPR format. He sits in Tier 9 on the board.

The range of outcomes

No simulation band data is available for Simpson, so the full percentile spread cannot be reported here. What the headline numbers do communicate is a narrow ceiling in the current projection: a QB28 sitting 103.6 points below replacement level does not have a wide path to fantasy relevance in standard formats. The Tier 9 placement reflects that reality.

How to draft him

Simpson does not have a market ADP — he is not being drafted consistently enough across platforms to produce one. In a standard 12-team snake draft, he is effectively undrafted. Target him only if you are in a format that requires a deep QB bench, are streaming late in the season, or are playing in a league structure where his situation could change meaningfully. Do not spend a meaningful pick on him in any standard format.
