Jared Goff a Steady Dynasty Option Despite Age, Lack of Rushing Upside?

Thursday, April 16, 7:46 PM

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff is far from the flashiest name in fantasy football, but his reliability has allowed him to be a top-10 fantasy option year in and year out. Goff has ranked as the QB10 or higher in each of his four seasons, including a QB9 finish in 2025 as he tallied 4,564 passing yards, 34 passing touchdowns, and eight interceptions. He lacks rushing upside, but he also does a pretty good job protecting the football, which has allowed him to remain in the top-12 range. It also helps that he has a bunch of superstars at his disposal, including Jahmyr Gibbs at running back, Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams at wide receiver, Sam LaPorta at tight end, and Penei Sewell in the trenches. Older, non-rushing quarterbacks aren't typically dynasty trade targets, but if we assume that Goff will produce similarly to Matthew Stafford in his thirties, then the Cal product can still be an intriguing offseason addition in dynasty leagues. Plus, he'll remain relatively affordable in trades as long as he lacks the rushing upside that quarterbacks like Trevor Lawrence and Justin Herbert possess. A current ranking as the QB23 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings doesn't quite reflect the short-term QB1 value he could bring to a contender in dynasty leagues.

Caleb Williams News

Caleb Williams Continues to Trend Upward in Ben Johnson's System

Friday, May 1, 7:32 AM

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams had an incredible breakout campaign in his second NFL season, partly due to the team's new offensive system led by first-year head coach Ben Johnson. Williams finished the 2025 regular season with 3,942 passing yards, 27 passing touchdowns, and seven interceptions. All three of those numbers set new career-highs, and although his interception total did increase from Year 1 to Year 2, he still did a great job limiting turnovers. He was also a threat on the ground, tallying 383 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns. Williams is a strong candidate to take another big leap during his third season. Last year was terrific, for sure, but there's definitely a possibility that he could hit 4,000 passing yards and 30 passing touchdowns in 2026. He certainly has a strong supporting cast that can help him reach those marks. Rome Odunze and Luther Burden III both look like potential franchise receivers, and Colston Loveland has emerged as one of the league's most impressive young tight ends. Plus, the leadership of Johnson should also allow Williams to remain a top-tier fantasy quarterback for many years to come. He's firmly entrenched as a high-end QB1 in dynasty leagues.
