Outlook Jayden Daniels
Healthy and Highly Motivated, Elite Dual-Threat Weapon Set for Massive Bounce-Back Campaign
After an injury-shortened sophomore year that left him feeling "miserable," our projections suggest a massive rebound for the third-year signal-caller. Fully healthy following an incredible offseason, he remains the undisputed starting quarterback in Washington, backed by a developing weapon corps featuring Terry McLaurin.
Looking at draft trends, his ADP has steadily climbed from the late 60s down to 62 over the past month. Fantasy managers are buying into his recovery, yet he remains a potential steal at this price point. Our models project him to post over 300 fantasy points, utilizing his dual-threat ability to pile up rushing yards.
We project 3,573 passing yards, 23 passing touchdowns, and a hefty 710 rushing yards with five scores. This dual-threat baseline provides both an incredibly safe weekly floor and an elite overall ceiling, making him a priority target to anchor fantasy rosters.

Outlook Sam Darnold
Rejuvenated Seattle Offense Positions Sam Darnold as a Premier Late-Round Quarterback Target
After a highly successful transition to Seattle, Sam Darnold enters the year as the unquestioned starting quarterback. Supported by a loaded receiving corps featuring Cooper Kupp, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and Rashid Shaheed, our projections expect Darnold to remain highly productive in head coach Mike Macdonald's offense.
Our models project Darnold for 3,885 passing yards, 25 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions, alongside 120 rushing yards. Coming off consecutive seasons with over 4,200 passing yards, his stable play has earned the trust of both his coaches and fantasy managers.
In 1.0 PPR drafts, Darnold's stock has steadily risen over the past month, with his ADP climbing from around 186 in early May to 160 in June. Despite this rising cost, our staff views him as an excellent late-round value for managers employing a late-round quarterback strategy.
