Outlook Justin Herbert
Rejuvenated Scheme and Rushing Mobility Present Major Draft Value
Justin Herbert enters 2026 spearheading an evolved Chargers attack under offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel and head coach Jim Harbaugh. While Los Angeles lost starting center Tyler Biadasz for the season, Herbert has shown sharp preseason rhythm and deep chemistry with targets like Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston.
Our projections expect a well-rounded campaign, estimating 3,800 passing yards, 26 passing touchdowns, and nearly 400 rushing yards. After producing a career-high 498 rushing yards in 2025, his enhanced mobility elevates his weekly floor within an efficient passing structure.
Draft market sentiment has cooled unexpectedly, with Herbert's ADP sliding from the mid-80s down past pick 125 over the last month. Our models view this shifting price as a prime value opportunity in 1.0 PPR formats, offering starting caliber production at a mid-to-late round discount.

Outlook Bo Nix
Upgraded Receiving Corps and Rushing Floor Signal High-End QB2 Value
Entering his third season, Bo Nix is completely healthy following offseason ankle rehab and looked sharp during preseason action. Denver upgraded his supporting cast by adding explosive wideout Jaylen Waddle to pair alongside veteran Courtland Sutton and tight end Evan Engram, giving Nix the most dynamic group of weapons in his career.
Nix provides fantasy managers with a dependable dual-threat floor, having tallied nine rushing scores across his first two seasons. Our projections anticipate another solid year through the air and on the ground, forecasting 3,700 passing yards, 26 passing touchdowns, and 300 rushing yards for 286.0 fantasy points.
Draft momentum has cooled considerably over the summer, with his ADP sliding from pick 108 in July down into the mid-150s (currently 154.25). At this discounted price tag, our projections view Nix as a prime late-round draft value with steady QB2 utility and weekly top-12 streaming potential.
