Outlook Dak Prescott

Sustained Elite Passing Volume Positions Dallas Field General as a Premier Value

Dak Prescott remains the undisputed leader of a high-powered Dallas passing game. Operating with elite weapons like CeeDee Lamb and newcomer George Pickens, Prescott's chemistry with his primary targets is already building in minicamps. Our projections expect Dallas to remain pass-heavy, securing a highly dependable, high-volume floor.

Evaluating draft trends, Prescott’s ADP has remained stubbornly stable around 90-91 overall. Despite a brief, minor spike in early June, his current cost represents an outstanding draft-day value. Our models view his market price as a steal, especially given his proven ability to sustain elite passing numbers.

We project Prescott to throw for 4,303 yards and 31 touchdowns, securing his place as a highly dependable starter. While his projected rushing contributions of 165 yards and two scores are modest, his exceptional efficiency and passing volume make him an ideal target for late-round quarterback strategies.

Outlook Geno Smith

Rejuvenated Jet Engine Offers Late-Round Superflex Appeal Under Frank Reich

Geno Smith enters the season in the driver's seat for the Jets under offensive coordinator Frank Reich, who has publicly lauded the veteran as a perfect fit for his system. Operating as the clear starting quarterback ahead of Cade Klubnik, Smith benefits from a revamped supporting cast featuring Garrett Wilson and newly acquired weapons Adonai Mitchell and Omar Cooper Jr.

Our projections expect a respectable bounce-back year, modeling Smith for 3,472 passing yards, 21 touchdowns, and 180 rushing yards. While his 15 projected interceptions cap his ceiling in standard formats, he remains a highly viable backup in single-QB leagues and a steady QB2 option in Superflex structures.

With an ADP hovering late around 254, the draft market is heavily discounting Smith, making him a potential value steal. Despite a brief early-June spike in draft cost, his current price represents virtually zero risk for managers looking to secure a starting quarterback with solid offensive weaponry late in drafts.
