Matthew Stafford News
Tuesday, March 24, 7:48 AM
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is aging like fine wine. The 38-year-old made his third career Pro Bowl and won the first MVP award of his career in his 17th year in the league in 2025 after throwing for a league-high 4,707 yards, a league-high 46 touchdowns, and eight interceptions in 17 regular-season starts. He then added a league-high 936 passing yards and a league-high six touchdowns in three postseason games before the Rams fell short to the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Championship. With one of the best receiving duos in the league in Puka Nacua and Davante Adams coming back in 2026, Stafford should remain in the QB1 picture in all fantasy formats. However, as he nears 40 years old, Stafford will also be one of the bigger injury risks at the position. In dynasty/keeper leagues, you're stoked if you have a strong roster around him, but if you don't, he's an easy sell high candidate who could be playing the last year of his career in 2026.

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.
