Jaxson Dart vs Kenny Gainwell

“Dart only started part of one game with Malik Nabers in 2025. However, the superstar wide receiver is on track to play in Week 1. Yet, the former Ole Miss quarterback averaged 22.6 fantasy points per game as the starter.”

“While fantasy players should draft him as a QB1, Dart is overvalued at his current ADP.”

“After watching Russell Wilson play poorly over the first three weeks, Jaxson Dart took over as the starter in Week 4 and never looked back.”

“Most recently, he helped Jaxson Dart along his impressive rookie season.”

“Jaxson Dart (QB – NYG) offers real rushing upside paired with rookie-year efficiency that was genuinely elite outside of one statistical outlier game.”

“Statistically, Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart had one of the better rookie seasons in recent memory. After taking over the starting job in late September, Dart threw for 2,200-plus yards and 15 touchdowns and ran for another 487 yards and nine touchdowns, the latter tied for second among quarterbacks in the entire league.”

“Dart did not need a perfect environment to create fantasy points because his legs consistently raised both his floor and ceiling.”

“TreVeyon Henderson, Trevor Lawrence, Jaxson Dart – 9 T6”

“Jaxson Dart (QB – NYG) I’m a bit hesitant to draft Jaxson Dart after last season because of the injuries, but his rushing potential is intriguing”

“Round 2: Jaxon Smith-Njigba (WR – SEA) I do have a Superflex spot, so another quarterback will definitely be on the roster, but I preferred Jaxon Smith-Njigba over Trevor Lawrence , Jaxson Dart , Brock Purdy and the other available quarterbacks.”

“But my issue here is that he plays so recklessly. Dart is one of the biggest injury risks you can find at the quarterback position.”

“Jaxson Dart showed a lot of potential as a rookie. He’s a dual-threat quarterback who plays a fantasy-friendly game.”

“Gainwell is now in Tampa Bay and will operate as the 1B to Bucky Irving's 1A. Coming off the board with an ADP of RB32, Gainwell could smash if he sees a similar workload to what he had a year ago in Pittsburgh.”

“After a few forgettable seasons in Philadelphia, Kenneth Gainwell finally got on the fantasy map in his lone season with the Steelers. He earned Aaron Rodgers' trust and was a checkdown machine, catching 73 balls for 486 yards. It was the receiving that supplied a whopping 63% of his fantasy points.”

“Gainwell, however, is a known quantity and excelled with Pittsburgh last season. He plays on third downs and might have a big role depending on Bucky Irving's snaps and health. Gainwell also had 85 targets last season, good for fifth-most in the NFL at the position, and had 37 red-zone touches in 2025.”

“It will likely take Irving missing an extended period of the season, but Baker Mayfield could dink and dunk his way to supporting an RB1 season for the newly acquired Gainwell.”

“Kenneth Gainwell could back-door-cover his way into RB1 territory. Gainwell may have to channel former Buccaneers backs Leonard Fournette and Rachaad White for this to happen.”

“Gainwell had five red-zone rushing touchdowns, with four coming from inside the 5-yard line. Gainwell is the RB37 in FantasyPros' expert consensus rankings (ECR), which is similar to his current best ball average draft position (ADP).”

“Gainwell was signed by Tampa in free agency after they elected to let Rachaad White walk. Gainwell is coming off a career year — 114 rush attempts and 85 targets, as well as being voted the Steelers' team MVP.”

“The Buccaneers have replaced White with an even more threatening receiving veteran in Kenneth Gainwell. Gainwell ranked fourth among all backs in receptions in 2025, trailing only Christian McCaffrey, Bijan Robinson and Jahmyr Gibbs.”

“Gainwell said that he believes the team's offense is a perfect fit for him as a smaller, shifty back that can exploit mismatches on the perimeter. "That style of offense is built for guys that can get to the perimeter, fast guys and I think me and Bucky and Sean [Tucker] have that ability to get around the edges and see those cutback lanes and make it happen," Gainwell said.”

“Baker Mayfield expressed his immense respect for Gainwell, praising him as "somebody that I've respected from afar when he was Philly and the Steelers." Mayfield noted that Gainwell "is a sharp kid who's always been able to do pass protection stuff" and that "in Pittsburgh he actually balled out," adding that "we're lucky because he's extremely sharp, a great leader, can do everything you ask for."”

“Tampa Bay signed RB Kenneth Gainwell this offseason, who figures to be the second in line for touches behind Irving. Robinson said Gainwell is a true pro with outstanding tape from his time in Philadelphia, and Bucs RB coach Skip Peete added that Gainwell brings versatility to both the run game and pass game, with good skills in catching and pass protection.”

“Gainwell comfortably set new career highs in attempts (114) and receptions (73) with Pittsburgh in 2025. The 27-year-old's success while handling that workload resulted in a spike with respect to compensation, landing a two-year, $14MM deal on the open market after playing for $1.79MM as a Steeler.”
