Anthony Richardson Sr. a Dynasty Hold with No Clear Path Back to Relevance

Thursday, June 11, 7:01 AM

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr. has been limited to 15 starts and fewer than 400 total dropbacks since being selected fourth overall in the 2023 NFL Draft. With him now clearly behind Daniel Jones in the Colts' quarterback room, and Jones progressing well from the Achilles tear that ended his 2025 season, already throwing in 7-on-7 sessions, Richardson's next opportunity for starting work remains a mystery. With Indianapolis declining his fifth-year option, 2026 marks the final year of Richardson's rookie contract, but barring the unexpected, he will reach free agency with barely over a 50% career completion percentage and more interceptions than touchdowns. While he will still only be 25 at that point, it's unlikely he will find anything more than a short-term commitment and a chance to compete for a backup role. With a skill set custom-designed for fantasy football, he remains a dynasty hold at RotoBaller's QB35, as all he needs to do is find the field to score points, even if it does not translate directly to real-life NFL success.

Bears Seeking Second-Rounder for Tyson Bagent?

Friday, February 27, 2:22 PM

The Chicago Tribune's Brad Biggs thinks the Chicago Bears would most likely need a "second-round pick or two picks equaling that value" to make it worth their while to trade backup quarterback Tyson Bagent this offseason. Biggs also questions whether any team would actually offer a second-rounder for Bagent, who has only made four starts (all in his rookie season in 2023) in his three years in the NFL. The Arizona Cardinals have been rumored as a team that could potentially trade for Bagent, and the New York Jets are another organization that might look to save money at the QB position in 2026. It's just hard to imagine any team, no matter how desperate, wanting to give up much for Bagent before they make moves in free agency and the upcoming NFL draft. If Bagent is traded, he wouldn't be guaranteed a starting role going into Week 1 and would have to win a QB competition in training camp.
