# Mike Harmon: Harmon laid out his 2026 fantasy quarterback rankings, with Josh Allen far and away No. 1, Drake Maye second and Lamar Jackson third, extending down through Jared Goff at 14. He also singled out Bo Nix as a possible top-three finisher, faded Jayden Daniels out of his top 10, and floated Jordan Love, Jonah Coleman and Keon Coleman as late-round upside plays. **Claimed:** Aug 24, 2026 **Pundit:** Mike Harmon — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/pundits/mike-harmon **Outlet:** Fox Sports Radio (podcast) — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/outlets/fox-sports-radio-podcast **How it reached us:** said on air or in an interview **Original:** https://podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/traffic.omny.fm/d/clips/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/7177a057-b33d-4039-9fd5-ae3300346c9a/28619bc5-829b-4199-9fdc-b4b0014b28b9/audio.mp3?in_playlist=be0668fc-1028-4ce5-80eb-ae2e00387188 6 checkable claims — 3 sleeper calls, 1 fantasy bust call, 1 fantasy ranking and 1 positional finishe — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet.
