Kirk Cousins News
Tuesday, April 28, 5:36 AM
Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Kirk Cousins signed a two-year deal to serve as a bridge quarterback until first overall pick Fernando Mendoza is ready to take over. At the NFL's Annual League Meeting, new head coach Klint Kubiak shared his belief that a rookie quarterback should learn behind the scenes for as long as possible, and shortly thereafter, Cousins was brought in on a team-friendly contract. Kubiak also expressed a desire to split backfield carries before adding Mike Washington Jr. in the fourth round of the NFL Draft, so he appears to have a clear plan in his first year at the helm. The Raiders have made notable improvements to the offensive line and defense a year after earning the first overall pick by going 3-14, so Cousins could be provided ample leash to allow Mendoza to develop into an NFL professional. As a quarterback expected to start more than a handful of games in 2026, he could be drastically underpriced as RotoBaller's dynasty QB47, and how he looks to open the season could determine his future value should the Raiders allow him to hit free agency again in 2027 at the age of 38.

Dak Prescott News
Tuesday, April 14, 7:24 PM
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had a terrific 2026 season, ranking as the overall QB6 in fantasy football. Despite lacking rushing upside, Prescott was a top fantasy option with his 67.3% completion rate, 4,552 passing yards, 32 total touchdowns, and 12 turnovers. The 32-year-old bounced back in a huge way after his injury-shortened 2024 season. In each of his last four seasons with 13+ games played, Prescott has ranked as a top-eight fantasy quarterback. Staying healthy is easier said than done, but if he can remain upright and on the field, the Mississippi State product has tremendous fantasy upside. There's also a lot to love about the passing volume in Dallas; last season, Prescott led the NFL in completions (404) and had the second-most pass attempts (600). With CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, and Jake Ferguson all returning to this passing game for the 2026 campaign, the veteran quarterback should remain quite busy throwing the ball to a talented group of receivers. His current evaluation as the QB15 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty rankings reflects his age (32), but dynasty contenders looking to win now should absolutely pursue a trade for Prescott this offseason since he has top-five upside at an affordable price tag.
