Bryce Young News
Thursday, June 25, 8:21 AM
Across 16 games in 2025, Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young completed 63.6% of his pass attempts for 3,011 yards, 23 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. The 24-year-old also provided modest production with his legs, rushing for 216 yards and two scores on 54 attempts. While Young has made definite strides since his disastrous rookie season in 2023, he's yet to prove he can provide consistent top-12 fantasy production. At the same time, Young finished as the QB19 in 2025, putting him solidly in the QB2 range. There's also a chance that the Panthers operate with less of a run-heavy approach in 2026 after losing running back Rico Dowdle in free agency. Even if Young's development stagnates and his 2026 production mirrors his 2025 output, he should outperform his current redraft ADP of QB26. In superflex formats, Young may be a sneaky sleeper for fantasy managers to target.

Cam Ward News
Tuesday, June 16, 7:55 AM
Tennessee Titans head coach Robert Saleh said that he's not too concerned about the misses and innacuracy issues that second-year quarterback Cam Ward has encountered so far this offseason, according to Turron Davenport of ESPN. Saleh is giving Ward a pass as he learns a new offense going into his second year in the NFL. However, it's an ongoing issue for the former first overall pick out of the University of Miami, as Ward completed only 59.8% of his 540 pass attempts over 17 starts in his rookie camapign in 2025. Ward didn't have much help on offense, though, on his way to throwing for 3,169 yards, 15 touchdowns, and seven interceptions as Tennessee's full-time starter. He was sacked a league-high 55 times while also carrying the ball 39 times for 159 rushing yards and two more touchdowns. There is certainly more intrigue around Ward as he heads into Year 2 with Brian Daboll as the Titans' offensive coordinator, but for Ward to take the next step, he is going to need to improve his accuracy. Ward's fantasy arrow is pointing up, but he should still only be targeted as a low-end QB2 with upside in drafts this fall.
