Deshaun Watson in dynasty: value, format and fit

In a 1QB league he is worth 1,132, 1,384 less than in superflex — the second-quarterback slot is what makes QBs expensive. These are the numbers the dynasty trade calculator starts from; league size, scoring and consolidation logic adjust them for the trade in front of you.

The players closest to him in value are Ryan Flournoy (WR, 2,504), Brian Robinson (RB, 2,529) and Brenton Strange (TE, 2,538). Inside that band, position and age decide the trade, not the raw number. A straight swap for Ryan Flournoy (WR) is -0.5% for the side receiving Ryan Flournoy (WR). A 2-for-1 that returns Audric Estime (RB) and 2026 6.01 is dead even on value before the consolidation bonus the calculator applies to the side getting Deshaun Watson.
