Joe Milton III Offers Superflex Appeal

Monday, November 9, 7:02 AM

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Joe Milton III made his first career NFL start on Sunday and underwhelmed as a passer, going 18-of-34 (52%) for 169 yards. However, he flashed his fantasy upside on the ground, rushing nine times for 64 yards and finishing with 13.16 fantasy points. Half of his fantasy production came on the ground, and with the Eagles' bye in Week 10, Milton should have more opportunities to get reps with the starting offense and host the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 11. Milton has some fantasy appeal given his rushing upside, but he needs to be more efficient as a passer if he wants to finish the season as the Eagles' starting quarterback. Fantasy managers in a superflex or dynasty format may want to take a flyer on Milton over the next few weeks to see if he improves, given his powerful arm and rushing upside.

Kyle McCord News

Kyle McCord trending towards starting for Dolphins

Tuesday, November 10, 11:18 AM

Miami Dolphins backup quarterback Kyle McCord is in line to start his team's Week 10 matchup against the Buffalo Bills following the team's placement of QB1 Malik Willis (groin) on Injured Reserve, per Sal Capaccio of WGR 550. A sixth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft by the Philadelphia Eagles, McCord has yet to appear in an NFL game. He spent the 2025 season on the Eagles' practice squad before being signed by the Green Bay Packers in January and then being traded to Miami right before the start of the 2026 season. McCord has a favorable matchup in what will likely be his first NFL start in Week 10 against the Indianapolis Colts, which could give him some waiver wire appeal in two-QB fantasy formats. Still, the 24-year-old is extremely unproven, and he doesn't have an amazing supporting cast of weapons around him with the Dolphins.
