Geno Smith News
Friday, March 6, 6:23 AM
The Las Vegas Raiders are releasing quarterback Geno Smith, barring a trade before the start of the new league year next week, sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN. The Raiders will open up $8 million in salary cap space this year by releasing Smith while taking on $18.5 million in dead money. Smith had a disastrous season in Vegas in 2025, completing 67.4% of his passes for 3,2025 yards, 19 touchdowns, and a league-leading 17 interceptions in 15 starts. The 35-year-old made back-to-back Pro Bowl appearances with the Seattle Seahawks in 2022 and 2023, but that feels like ages ago at this point. The veteran signal-caller will now hit the open market as a bridge option for a QB-needy NFL team. Returning to the New York Jets is a possibility. At best, Smith will be competing for a starting job under center this summer. He'll be avoidable in all single-QB leagues in 2026, even if he wins a starting gig.

Josh Allen News
Thursday, March 5, 7:59 AM
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has finished as the fantasy QB1 and QB2 over the past two seasons, with an NFL MVP mixed in there, while throwing to Khalil Shakir as his top wide receiver. Following Thursday's breaking news that the Bills will acquire DJ Moore from the Bears for a 2026 pick swap, Allen will now share the huddle with his most talented receiver since Stefon Diggs' final season in Buffalo in 2023. While Moore is coming off a down year in Chicago, in which he made only 50 catches for 682 yards and six touchdowns, targets were split almost frustratingly unilaterally between Moore, Rome Odunze, Colston Loveland, and, later in the season, Luther Burden III. In Buffalo, Moore should step in as the undisputed WR1 that the Bills have been in search of for years, prolonging Allen's reign as the QB1 in all dynasty formats.
