Outlook Jared Goff

High-Yield Passing Volume Makes Detroit's Prolific Passer an Outstanding Draft-Day Value

Goff remains the engine of a highly productive Detroit offense. Supported by elite weapons like Amon-Ra St. Brown and Sam LaPorta, his volume is incredibly secure. He is coming off a massive 2025 campaign where he completed 67.9% of his passes for 4,843 yards and 36 touchdowns.

Looking at draft trends, his ADP has been quite stable, mostly sitting in the 115 to 125 range over the last month. Our models indicate that at this late-round price point, he represents a phenomenal draft-day steal for fantasy managers looking to wait on quarterback.

We project him for 4,276 passing yards and 31 touchdowns this season. While he offers virtually no rushing upside, his elite passing volume and red-zone efficiency in this friendly system solidify him as a trusted regular starter in all standard formats.

Outlook Dak Prescott

Proven Aerial Ceiling and Shifting Market Price Create a Premier Mid-Round Quarterback Target

Coming off an elite 2025 campaign, Dak Prescott anchors a high-powered Cowboys passing offense. With superstar CeeDee Lamb and ascending weapon George Pickens flanking the perimeter, alongside reliable tight end Jake Ferguson, Prescott is set up for immense success. Despite minor June knee soreness, he remains fully locked in.

Our models project another highly efficient season, forecasting 4,377 passing yards and 30 passing touchdowns. While Prescott does not offer elite rushing upside, his consistency through the air makes him an extremely reliable weekly starter. Last season's 4,906-yard performance proves his ceiling remains as high as any quarterback in the league.

His market price has seen minor volatility, starting around ADP 95 in May, experiencing a brief early June surge, and stabilizing nicely around a highly reasonable ADP of 89. At this price point, our projections view Prescott as a stellar mid-round value option for managers waiting on a quarterback.
