Jalen Hurts News
Saturday, August 22, 10:56 AM
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts didn't suddenly become a bad fantasy option last year, but one of the biggest parts of his game disappeared. Hurts still threw a career-high 25 touchdowns against six interceptions in 16 games, while his rushing line slipped to 421 yards and eight scores. Both were five-year lows. That's why the camp reports matter. Vic Fangio said Hurts "looks faster," and the tush push is staying in Sean Mannion's new offense. Those goal-line chances aren't going anywhere. There is some risk around the passing game after A.J. Brown was traded to New England, and the Eagles are breaking in several new receivers behind DeVonta Smith. Still, Hurts has looked comfortable enough in the new scheme and hit several deep balls during joint practices with the Patriots. RotoBaller has him at QB6. If even part of last year's lost rushing production comes back, there is room for Hurts to beat that ranking.

Caleb Williams News
Friday, August 28, 7:01 AM
Ahead of Thursday's joint practice with the Titans, Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams was praised by his head coach for the advancement he's made in the red zone, and he backed those words up with another solid showing and a touchdown connection with Kaden Davis while working against Tennessee's top defense. "I think that's been probably the best thing so far this camp, just the anticipation, the timing, the understanding of where we want to put the football," Ben Johnson told reporters to begin the day. "He is not afraid to fit it into tight windows. He trusts his pass catchers. A year ago, a lot of the things were foreign to him, and now you can tell he has some banked reps and he's able to anticipate where he wants to go with the football." After finishing as the QB5 in a year where he left plenty of fantasy production on the bone, Williams is a candidate to take a significant step forward in his second season in Johnson's offense, and he could prove to be a league-winning value as the seventh quarterback off the board by current ADP.
