Josh Allen News
Sunday, March 29, 7:08 AM
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (foot) required surgery to fix a broken bone in his right foot following his eighth season in the NFL, but new head coach Joe Brady told NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero that Allen is "good to go." Allen should be fine for all of Buffalo's offseason workouts as the Bills look to finally get over the postseason hump and to the Super Bowl in 2026. The 29-year-old has come short of the 4,000-yard passing mark in each of the last two seasons, but he should have more help in the passing game with the offseason acquisition of receiver DJ Moore. The four-time Pro Bowler and former MVP was still the QB1 overall in fantasy scoring in 2025, thanks to his elite rushing abilities. In 17 regular-season starts, Allen threw for 3,668 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions while adding a league-high 579 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns on the ground on 112 carries. Allen's rushing prowess will make him the top QB off the board in fantasy football drafts again this year.

C.J. Stroud News
Friday, March 20, 8:23 AM
Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud was taken second overall out of Ohio State in 2023 and immediately delivered for Houston, throwing for 4,108 yards, 23 touchdowns, and only five interceptions in 15 games in his first year in the NFL to win Offensive Rookie of the Year honors. Stroud has regressed the last two seasons, though, and he had only 3,041 passing yards, 19 touchdowns, and eight interceptions in 14 regular-season starts in 2025. The good news was that the 24-year-old took only 23 sacks after being sacked 52 times in 2024. Everything fell apart in two games in the playoffs for Stroud, as he turned the ball over seven times in games against the Steelers and Patriots. The Texans are adamant that Stroud is their QB despite trade rumors this offseason, and he'll be in his second season with offensive coordinator Nick Caley. Stroud has enough weapons around him to recover from the last two disappointing seasons, but fantasy managers will want to keep him in the QB2 tier with upside when drafting this fall.
