Carson Wentz vs Davis MillsWho should you start in 2026 fantasy football?

Carson Wentz is the better fantasy start for 2026, averaging 14.1 PPG to Davis Mills's 11.4 in 2025. Full head to head breakdown below.

The Bottom Line

Carson Wentz is the better fantasy play this season.

Carson Wentz has the edge, but it is not a runaway. The 2.7-PPG advantage is real (14.1 to 11.4), and Carson Wentz's 6 touchdowns show scoring upside. Davis Mills is the buy-low candidate if recent production has dipped, because the talent gap is smaller than the numbers suggest.

Moderate confidence: stats favor the leader, but matchup variance could flip this weekly.

Carson Wentz vs Davis Mills: The Full Breakdown

Two quarterbacks who will land on plenty of the same rosters in 2026. Carson Wentz (Minnesota Vikings) finished the 2025 season averaging 14.1 fantasy points per game in 5 games. Davis Mills (Houston Texans) came in at 11.4 PPG over 6 games. The gap is real but not insurmountable with the right matchup.

Carson Wentz carries a 2.7-point PPG advantage from the 2025 season. That baseline matters, but it is one input among several. Matchup difficulty, scoring trends, and injury reports move the needle week to week, which is why the best answer changes depending on when you are asking.

Both lean on arm talent and offensive scheme as traditional pocket passers. Carson Wentz threw for 1216 yards and 6 touchdowns, while Davis Mills posted 915 yards and 5 scores. Volume, red zone efficiency, and game script are the key week-to-week differentiators when neither carries rushing upside.

Carson Wentz has his bye in Week 6, and Davis Mills rests in Week 8. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at quarterback for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Both are in a similar trade value range. A straight swap would be fair in most leagues, with the tiebreaker going to whichever manager values schedule or bye week more. Dynasty outlook: Carson Wentz (age 33) is on the back end of his prime. Strong now, but dynasty value declines year over year. Davis Mills (age 27) is in his prime window. Peak production now with steady value for the next 3-4 seasons.
