No Path to Redraft Production for Ty Simpson

Saturday, October 3, 6:28 PM

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Ty Simpson entered the season with very little redraft value, and he continues to slip down the rankings as the season goes on. Any value that Simpson had prior to the season was driven by his role on the depth chart, as many people expected him to be the backup quarterback and the insurance option behind Matthew Stafford. Instead, Simpson has been inactive as the emergency third quarterback, which means he wouldn't see the field even if Stafford were to get injured. Instead, the backup duties belong to Stetson Bennett, who has more experience in the Rams' system. As a first-round pick, Simpson still has plenty of dynasty appeal, but any glimmer of redraft value is slipping away as long as Simpson remains inactive.

Jalon Daniels News

Jalon Daniels is Likely to Start in Week 6

Friday, October 9, 12:17 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jalon Daniels is expected to remain under center for the Week 6 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Scott Smith reports. Head coach Todd Bowles said right now that the plan is for Daniels to start at home versus Pittsburgh. It sounds like Baker Mayfield (thumb) is making good progress, but the team is uncertain if he'll be ready that fast. The Bucs offense looked good during Thursday's win over the Dallas Cowboys. The Bucs can afford to be more cautious with Mayfield, considering Daniels has looked surprisingly good during his first two career starts. There's still a lot of time between now and next Sunday's game against the Steelers, but for now, Daniels is lined up to start.
