Outlook Daniel Jones

Late-Round Value Beckons as Franchise Passer Eyes Week 1 Return

Daniel Jones is progressing well in his recovery from a torn Achilles suffered last December, recently advancing to seven-on-seven drills at OTAs. He expects to be ready for Week 1, leading an Indianapolis offense that features elite running back Jonathan Taylor and target magnet Josh Downs.

Our projections anticipate a highly productive campaign, forecasting 3,769 passing yards, 22 touchdowns, and an additional three scores on the ground. Despite being listed ahead of Anthony Richardson Sr. on the depth chart, Jones remains a forgotten asset in fantasy drafts.

Over the last month, his ADP has remained stubbornly stable in the late-15th round, currently sitting at 189. With our models expecting a solid 247.6 fantasy points, this flat market price turns him into an absolute late-round steal in single-quarterback and Superflex leagues.

Outlook Drake Maye

Sensational Offseason Upgrades and A.J. Brown Acquisition Set to Propel Drake Maye Into Fantasy Elite

After a sensational sophomore campaign where he threw for 4,688 yards and 32 touchdowns, Drake Maye is primed for another massive step forward. Reports from Patriots camp indicate he has added significant muscle this offseason, and his shoulder is fully healthy following New England's Super Bowl run.

His offensive environment is now stronger than ever following the blockbuster acquisition of star wideout A.J. Brown. Brown joins a receiving corps featuring Romeo Doubs and Hunter Henry, giving Maye a premier deep threat to unlock his high-end arm talent.

This offseason hype has driven Maye's ADP back up to 56 overall after a brief slip into the 80s. With our models projecting 4,020 passing yards, 28 passing touchdowns, and 457 rushing yards, he is a premier value target who offers elite QB1 upside at a mid-round cost.
