Daniel Jones News

Daniel Jones Gives QB2 Drafters More to Like

Sunday, August 23, 9:37 AM

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones has done a lot this summer to quiet the concern around last December's torn Achilles. He was fully cleared for the first day of training camp and has looked like himself moving around, with Colts.com noting his mobility was almost entirely unaffected by the injury by the end of camp. That's a big deal for a quarterback who added 164 rushing yards and five scores in 13 games last season. Jones was also good through the air, completing 68% of his passes for 3,101 yards, 19 touchdowns and eight interceptions while averaging 19.4 fantasy points per game before he went down. Indianapolis hasn't needed to see him in preseason games. Shane Steichen has already made it clear Jones is the QB1, and the Colts added Keenan Allen this week to a group that includes Josh Downs, Alec Pierce and Tyler Warren. The Achilles still makes his rushing ceiling harder to project, but the recovery has gone about as well as fantasy managers could have hoped. RotoBaller has Jones at QB24, leaving some room for profit in two-quarterback and Superflex formats.

Jordan Love News

Jordan Love Has Legitimate QB1 Upside at a QB2 Price

Monday, August 31, 11:32 AM

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love is still being treated like a QB2, but the setup around him is getting more interesting. Love threw for 3,381 yards, 23 touchdowns and only six interceptions in 15 games last season, completing a career-high 66.3% of his passes. The fantasy output lagged behind, with Love averaging 16.1 points per game while Green Bay finished 27th in pass attempts. We've already seen the other side of this. Love threw for 4,159 yards and 32 touchdowns in 2023. Matthew Golden has been one of the Packers' biggest playmakers this summer, Tucker Kraft is back from his torn ACL, and Love went 5-for-7 for 56 yards and a touchdown on his lone drive against Denver. Josh Jacobs' status is also uncertain after landing on the Commissioner's Exempt List, which could put more on the passing game. Love still doesn't offer much with his legs after rushing for 199 yards and no touchdowns last year. RotoBaller has him at QB19. That's QB2 territory, but the ceiling is considerably higher.
