Latest takes

Jalen Hurts
  • Jalen Hurts (PHI) Last year, the Eagles offense hit a rut, and Jalen Hurts finished with his worst season (QB8) in fantasy points per game since becoming the full-time starter in 2021.

  • Jalen Hurts (QB – PHI) and Jaxson Dart (QB – NYG) both grade as negative-regression cases driven by high rushing touchdown rates, but both are heavy-volume runners whose rushing floor is the stickiest asset in fantasy. Hurts is a buy-the-dip candidate coming off his worst year, and Dart profiles as a strong QB1 at a discounted cost.

  • Goedert already has excellent rapport with quarterback Jalen Hurts , and Philadelphia should enter a much heavier, pass-heavy offense under new coordinator Sean Mannion, who brings a modern Matt LaFleur/Sean McVay/Kyle Shanahan-style offense.

  • Two early draft targets are Jayden Daniels and Jalen Hurts.

    Mike Fanelli· Aug 14
  • Jalen Hurts is the 1st player in NFL history with a TD pass, a rushing TD & a passer rating of 115+ in 3 straight games 🤯

  • Jalen Hurts is one of the only quarterbacks outside of Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen who can produce in the passing game and explode in the rushing game. He may not be the best NFL quarterback, but he is great for fantasy.

    Ellis Johnson· Aug 11
  • This puts immobile pocket passers like Jared Goff and Matthew Stafford on a more even footing with Jayden Daniels and Jalen Hurts .

  • Jalen Hurts (QB – PHI) offers access to elite quarterback play at a real discount.

  • David Montgomery, Tyler Allgeier, Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Kareem Hunt, Jalen Hurts – 8 Jordan Love is the only QB in the last decade to:

  • He is also connected to Jalen Hurts , who many doubt as a passer

  • 180.8 | WR70 While he missed eight games last season with a toe injury, Purdy was the QB6 on a points-per-game basis, averaging 19.7 fantasy points per contest, a higher average than Jalen Hurts (18.7) and Dak Prescott (18.5)

    Mike Fanelli· Aug 6
  • Of the top-10 scorers overall in 2025, only Allen, Nix, and Jalen Hurts were selected as top-10 picks.

    Rich Hribar· Aug 5
  • Jalen Hurts (QB – PHI) One of the most severely underrated quarterbacks heading into the 2026 NFL season is Jalen Hurts.

  • For Hurts to be a midrange QB1 or better, he’ll have to put up big rushing numbers, and we saw his rushing numbers decline last year. After four straight years of double-digit TD runs, with an average of 13 rushing touchdowns a season over that stretch, Hurts had eight TD runs last year. The Eagles had faithfully used the “tush push” every time they got inside the opponent’s 2-yard line in recent years.

  • At his midrange QB1 price, Hurts has to deliver significant rushing value to give you a satisfying return on investment. Because let’s face it: Hurts has been a pretty average passer. Hurts has never had a 4,000-yard passing season.

Davante Adams
  • Davante Adams (WR – LAR) Inside Sean McVay’s pass‑heavy offense, Davante Adams remains a high‑end fantasy player. Even while playing next to Puka Nacua’s historic WR1 season, Adams scored 14 touchdowns in 14 games.

  • He’s only finished outside the top 15 of fantasy receivers once since 2015, and that was due to an injury-shortened campaign back in 2019. Adams has eclipsed the 1,000-yard receiving mark in six of the past eight seasons (missing out on his seventh by only three yards).

  • Round 5 Targets Davante Adams (WR – LAR) | ADP: 50.4 ( WR 22) Many are expecting significant touchdown regression for Davante Adams. Last season, the future Hall of Famer led the NFL with 14 receiving touchdowns despite missing the final three games with a hamstring injury.

    Mike Fanelli· Aug 25

  • The FantasyPros ECR is pricing Davante Adams as a low-end fantasy football WR2. But last year was actually a red-flag season disguised as an elite one; he posted a career-low catch rate of 53%, his YAC per reception hit a career low, and the bulk of his production was TD-dependent with 15 scores (three coming in a game without Puka Nacua ).

  • He has contingent upside if Puka Nacua or Davante Adams miss any games.

  • Davante Adams is entering his age-34 season, caught only 60 passes for 789 yards last year and missed the final three games with a hamstring injury. That would already be enough to make him risky.

  • With offensive wizard Sean McVay as his head coach and the dynamic duo of Puka Nacua and Davante Adams at wide receiver, Stafford seems well positioned for another big season.

  • 13: Davante Adams (WR – LAR) Many are expecting significant touchdown regression for Davante Adams.

    Mike Fanelli· Aug 10
  • For the first time in a long time, Davante Adams is priced outside the top-24 WRs:

  • Having Davante Adams and Puka Nacua has elevated his fantasy value, and the Rams are built to make one more run with Stafford under center.

  • When Davante Adams is currently discussed, the conversation revolves around his age, the QB’s age, his coach, the other receivers on the team, pretty much anything and everything BUT his concussion history.

  • There’s a chance Stafford’s goal-line connection with Davante Adams (another overvalued player on ESPN ) helps inoculate him from this regression.

    Ted Chmyz· Jul 22
  • Los Angeles WR Davante Adams ranked 10th on this same list: “His instincts and route running are still there even as his athletic traits have declined,” an NFC exec said.

  • While Davante Adams doesn't receive a ton of volume, he is a touchdown machine.

    Kurt Blakeway· Jul 10
  • Some players are TD monsters every year (Davante Adams) while others have shown that six or seven TDs is their ceiling such as Keenan Allen.
