Kenny Pickett News
Monday, March 9, 2:28 PM
Free-agent quarterback Kenny Pickett agreed to a one-year deal with the Carolina Panthers on Monday that will be worth up to $7.5 million, including $4 million in guarantees, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. With Pickett now in the fold as Bryce Young's backup, the Panthers are expected to trade veteran Andy Dalton. The 27-year-old Pickett will be on his fourth different team in the last four seasons. He was the 20th overall pick by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2022 out of Pittsburgh, but he only lasted two years in the Steel City before being dealt to the Philadelphia Eagles. Pickett spent last year with the Las Vegas Raiders, playing in six games (two starts) while going 28-for-45 passing for 188 yards, one touchdown, and two picks. He has mostly operated as a game manager under center with limited upside in his four NFL seasons, completing only 62.4% of his passes.

Malik Willis News
Tuesday, March 17, 6:20 PM
New Miami Dolphins quarterback Malik Willis signed a three-year, $67.5 million contract in free agency last week to become the team's new starting signal-caller. The former third-round pick by the Tennessee Titans in 2022 out of Liberty is getting another chance at a starting role as the Dolphins rebuild from the ground up. The 26-year-old went 2-1 as a starter for the Green Bay Packers the last two seasons and threw for 976 yards, six touchdowns, and no interceptions while completing 78.7% of his passes in 11 total games. Willis' dynasty/keeper stock is up now that he's in a starting role, but his upside in South Beach is another thing entirely. The Dolphins cut All-Pro wideout Tyreek Hill (knee) and traded receiver Jaylen Waddle to the Denver Broncos, leaving Jalen Tolbert, Malik Washington, and Tutu Atwell as the current top-three wideouts in Miami. Willis will have one of the most dynamic running backs behind him in De'Von Achane, but with limited pass-catching options to throw to, Willis is unlikely to be much more than a low-end QB2 in superflex leagues in 2026.
