Trevor Lawrence News
Wednesday, February 11, 10:01 AM
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence came into the league with sky-high expectations after being selected first overall in the 2021 draft, but following four disappointing seasons, he had fallen to the low-QB2 range in dynasty formats. However, after one year with new head coach Liam Coen and an identity-redefining season that saw him receive MVP votes, Lawrence is back into the QB1 conversation in dynasty startups. The biggest change to Lawrence's game in 2025 was his ability to keep drives alive with his legs. Throughout the regular season and playoffs, 333 of his career-high 390 rushing yards came on scrambles, and his nine rushing touchdowns almost doubled his previous career high. It was an element that Coen previously helped bring to Baker Mayfield's game, and one that could continue to boost Lawrence's value as he looks to take advantage of the rare continuity around him, heading into year six.

Mac Jones News
Tuesday, March 3, 6:45 AM
The San Francisco 49ers aren't financially motivated to move backup quarterback Mac Jones, who played at a high level in eight starts last year while filling in for an injured Brock Purdy. Jones also has a $3.07 million salary cap hit, and Purdy has missed time with injuries in all four of his seasons. However, it might be hard for the Niners to resist turning a budget-friendly free-agent pickup into a second-round pick. The Athletic's Jeff Howe suggests that San Fran "could rightfully be stubborn and hold out for a first-round offer." If a team strikes out in free agency and the NFL draft, it could circle back with the 49ers on Jones. The 49ers will likely only deal Jones if they receive an offer they can't refuse, and it's hard to imagine anyone offering a first-rounder for Jones, even if he did play well in 2025. With so many veteran QB options likely to be floating around on the open market this offseason, Jones' trade market right now isn't very strong.
