Bryce Young News
Monday, June 1, 6:02 AM
Carolina quarterback Bryce Young has had an up-and-down career since the Panthers made him the first overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. The soon-to-be-25-year-old signal caller was briefly benched in his second season before reclaiming the job due to injury, and in his third season in 2025, he led the Panthers to an 8-9 record and their first playoff appearance since 2017. His fantasy results have also been held down by a lack of consistency, with finishes of QB23, QB20, and QB19. Young's five 2025 weekly results as the QB12 or better marked a career high, but through three seasons in the league, he has yet to string two such finishes together in consecutive weeks, making him a difficult weekly play outside of best ball formats. His best outing in 2025 came in a Week 11 overtime win over the Falcons, in which he threw for 448 yards and scored more than 36 fantasy points. By contrast, in the two games prior, he scored a combined 0.54 fantasy points while playing 100% of the snaps. At RotoBaller's dynasty QB28, Young is a passable QB2 in superflex leagues, but his devastating lows make him more suitable as a luxury third quarterback.

Ty Simpson News
Friday, June 12, 5:50 AM
The Los Angeles Rams selection of Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson with the 13th pick of the 2026 NFL Draft went down as one of the biggest surprises of Day 1, but now that the dust has settled, Simpson's long-term dynasty appeal has grown more obvious. Since the draft, the Rams have agreed with Matthew Stafford on an extension that appears to keep the reigning MVP in Los Angeles through the 2027 season. With the Rams also trading away a handful of picks to continue bolstering a win-now roster, 2028 could serve as a natural transition season and a chance to begin building a team around Simpson after he's had two years to develop behind the scenes. While he may not have the immediate impact of some of the other rookies in his class, if the Rams believe they have their quarterback of the future, the franchise has a proven record of investing around their guy. The 23-year-old signal-caller is one of the safest bets to hold value over the next two seasons, and at RotoBaller's dynasty QB26, Simpson could turn into one of the smarter long-term investments as a late-first-round pick in superflex rookie drafts.
