Dak Prescott News
Thursday, June 11, 5:14 AM
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott has finished as the QB10 or better in six of the seven seasons in which he's played at least 16 games, with his only sub-QB1 season coming in 2018 in the form of a QB14 finish. While he has missed extended time in three of the past six seasons, when healthy, Prescott is one of the most consistent fantasy quarterbacks. Heading into 2026 with what again projects to be one of the league's highest scoring offenses, another top 10 season is very much in the cards, but at RotoBaller's dynasty QB14, Prescott remains criminally underrated. At almost 33 years old, he is closer to the end than the beginning, but with no signs of slowing for anything other than injury, he is a high-ceiling trade target who could still deliver a handful of league-winning seasons.

Sam Darnold News
Thursday, June 4, 9:23 AM
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold lacks significant dynasty upside because of his limited mobility, but the presence of superstar wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba does give his outlook a boost. Throwing the ball to the NFL's Offensive Player of the Year last season, Darnold racked up 4,048 passing yards, 25 touchdowns, and 14 interceptions, as well as six lost fumbles. He finished the year as the QB13, one year after ranking as the QB9 with the Vikings. Darnold has had the fortune of playing with elite receivers each of the last two seasons, and it has resulted in low-end QB1 or high-end QB2 results. Therefore, as long as he continues to have Smith-Njigba at his disposal, the 28-year-old ranks as a mid-to-high QB2 in fantasy football. Managers would like to see him cut down on turnovers next year, but we do expect to see his touchdown total increase slightly. Darnold currently ranks as the QB23 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings.
