Jacoby Brissett's Dynasty Value Largely Unaffected by Contract Situation

Sunday, June 21, 11:36 AM

When the Arizona Cardinals signed quarterback Jacoby Brissett to a two-year, $12.5 million deal in 2025, it was presumably to serve as the backup to two-time Pro Bowler Kyler. With the relationship between Murray and the Cardinals deteriorating shortly after that, Brissett ended up starting the final 12 games of the 2025 season and now finds himself as a bridge quarterback for either 2026 third-round pick Carson Beck or whoever the team hands the reins to in 2027. Seeking a guaranteed commitment in line with the elevated role, Brissett skipped all voluntary offseason activities and did not participate in team drills during mandatory minicamp. While a lot can still happen in the three months leading up to the Cardinals' Week 1 matchup with the Chargers, only a full split from the team would drastically alter Brissett's dynasty value ahead of the 2026 season. Brissett is 33 years old and potentially holding the final starting opportunity of his career, and with the Cardinals signing running back Tyler Allgeier in free agency and spending the third pick in the 2026 NFL Draft on Jeremiyah Love, it's unlikely that he sees the type of passing volume he did a year ago. Still a usable second or third quarterback in superflex leagues, Brissett is RotoBaller's dynasty QB31.

Jaxson Dart "Adjusting Really Well" to New Offense

Thursday, June 25, 8:50 AM

New York Giants new head coach John Harbaugh said that second-year quarterback Jaxson Dart is "adjusting really well" to the new offensive scheme this offseason, according to Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic. Dart will be working mostly with new offensive coordinator Matt Nagy, offensive assistant Greg Roman, and passing-game coordinator and QBs coach Brian Callahan as he looks to take the next step following an impressive rookie campaign in the Big Apple. Nagy has worked previously with Patrick Mahomes and Joe Burrow, so Dart should be in good hands. However, under Harbaugh and Roman, the Giants almost certainly will lean more on the running game. The most important thing that Dart needs to work on is not exposing himself to big hits when he takes off as a runner. The 23-year-old former first-rounder out of Ole Miss took over as the Giants' starter early in 2025 and finished with 2,272 passing yards, 15 touchdowns, and five interceptions in 14 games (12 starts), adding 487 rushing yards and nine touchdowns on 86 carries. Dart has clear high-end fantasy upside because of his dual-threat abilities as a runner and passer. RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 12 fantasy QB going into 2026.
