Aaron Rodgers News
Saturday, September 5, 2:45 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has emerged as a viable fantasy option in deeper leagues this season. Rodgers lacks true rushing upside, and he's certainly past his peak even as a passer. After all, he has confirmed that the 2026 season will be his last. Nevertheless, he continues to hold deep-league appeal, given the Steelers' improved wide receiver room. Pittsburgh made a diligent effort to improve its pass-catching unit this offseason, acquiring Michael Pittman Jr. from the Indianapolis Colts. Pittman is coming off a WR18 finish, fueled by 80 catches and seven touchdowns. The unit also features DK Metcalf, who is back for his second year in Pittsburgh after catching 59 passes for 850 yards and six touchdowns in 2025. Beyond the receiver room, Rodgers should also get support in the passing game from Jaylen Warren and Pat Freiermuth. As it stands, the veteran quarterback ranks as the QB27 in RotoBaller's latest redraft rankings. He currently has an ADP of 218.7, which means he'll be available on the waiver wire in many leagues.

Josh Allen News
Thursday, September 3, 9:48 AM
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has finished no lower than the QB2 in six consecutive seasons, making a strong claim to the greatest fantasy quarterback of all time while racking up four overall QB1 finishes over that span. With the addition of wide receiver DJ Moore and the potential return to health of tight end Dalton Kincaid, Allen could find himself leading one of Buffalo's most complete offenses in years, creating the possibility of another 4,000-yard passing campaign after falling short of that mark in each of the past two seasons. With one of the safest rushing floors the league has ever known and the potential of a vintage passing ceiling, it should come as no surprise that Allen ranks as RotoBaller's QB1 and stands alone as the only player at the position routinely going in the first two rounds of 2026 single-quarterback drafts.
