Sam Darnold News
Friday, April 3, 10:50 AM
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold has been a top-13 fantasy option in each of the last two seasons. In 2025, the Super Bowl champion racked up 4,048 passing yards, 25 touchdowns, and 14 interceptions. Darnold has not missed a game in back-to-back seasons (2024 with the Vikings and 2025 with the Seahawks). In fantasy football, he has benefited from the presence of Justin Jefferson or Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the last two years, respectively. Under contract through 2027, Darnold will now have at least two more years of Smith-Njigba at his disposal, keeping him in the low-end QB1 or high-end QB2 range. Most dynasty managers will find themselves in a position to hold Darnold this offseason. Selling high is an option, but the lack of name value or rushing upside will probably result in trade offers that don't quite live up to his value. Therefore, he's worth holding, since he still offers low-end QB1 appeal even if other managers won't offer QB1 value in trades.

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.
