Joe Burrow's Ceiling is Still QB1

Thursday, April 2, 4:47 PM

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has missed time in all but one of his professional seasons and started at least 11 games only three times in his six-year career. When active and healthy, the 29-year-old former first overall pick is unquestionably one of the best quarterbacks in the league, leading the NFL in touchdown passes in 2024 after finishing second in 2022. In a fantasy landscape geared ever more toward rushing quarterbacks, he is one of the few pocket passers in the league who can reliably threaten a QB1 finish on the strength of passing yards and touchdowns. With the Bengals offense largely intact, healthy, and with nary a contract dispute on the horizon, Burrow's continuity with Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Chase Brown could have him in line for the first such finish of his career.

Jayden Daniels News

Jayden Daniels Could Benefit from Influx of Young Talent

Thursday, April 2, 5:00 PM

Following a breakout rookie campaign in 2024, Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels entered his second season surrounded by the oldest roster in the NFL. Perhaps unsurprisingly, injuries largely derailed Washington's 2025 season. With the Commanders now slated to pick seventh in the upcoming NFL Draft, they are in a prime position to add an offensive weapon to a unit in dire need of difference makers outside of Daniels and the 30-year-old Terry McLaurin. The team has been linked to Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love as well as some of the top receivers in the class, and should they add a skill position player with their first pick, Daniels will undoubtedly see his dynasty value spike.
