Expert takes

Lamar Jackson
  • “Jackson, 29, has missed games due to five different injuries (two ankle issues to go with knee, hamstring and back problems) since 2021. He also did not look himself for a while following the 2025 hamstring issue, and the Ravens needed Huntley — brought back because of Cooper Rush ’s struggles in the QB2 role last season — again when Jackson sustained the back injury late last season. Although Jackson’s injury issues bring obvious concern given his play style, the Ravens armed their top player with extraordinary leverage this offseason by restructuring his deal .”

    Sam Robinson· Oct 10, 2026
  • “Lamar Jackson | QB, Baltimore Ravens (OUT) Lamar Jackson is recovering from an ankle sprain that has been described as “neither low nor high.” Timelines for recovery have been all over the place, but a one or two-week absence appears to be the consensus. Tyler Huntley is the backup and will step in for Jackson.”

    Jonathan Lange· Oct 10, 2026
  • “Ravens Ravens QB Lamar Jackson is the focal point of OC Declan Doyle ‘s offense, with HC Jesse Minter noting that he and Jackson were looking forward to working together as a group.”

    Wyatt Grindley· Sep 27, 2026

  • “In both of his matchups with the Cowboys, Jackson has run for 181 yards and a TD.”

    Julia Papworth· Sep 25, 2026
  • “Lamar Jackson has a massive ceiling in what projects to be a high-scoring matchup against the Cowboys. Dallas was getting torched by Jayden Daniels before he went down with an injury, which bodes well for Jackson’s outlook in this spot. With his ability to make plays through the air and on the ground, Jackson has the potential to put up a monster performance here.”

    Frank Ammirante· Sep 25, 2026
  • “But Jackson has looked far more like his electric self at the start of this season than he did in 2025. By the end of the season, he should be right up next to (OK, maybe behind) Allen as a top-tier fantasy quarterback.”

    Ted Chmyz· Sep 23, 2026
  • “Unfortunately, Jackson had arguably his worst season as a starter in 2025. He missed four games because of injury and played part of the year hurt. The superstar finished as the QB14 on a points-per-game basis among qualifying quarterbacks, averaging 19.8 fantasy points per contest. However, I expect a bounce-back season for Jackson, especially with Declan Doyle taking over as Baltimore’s offensive coordinator.”

    Mike Fanelli· Aug 16, 2026
  • “If Lamar Jackson can bounce back, Henry could inch back closer to his 2024 production (RB4 in fantasy points per game).”

    FantasyPros Staff· Aug 5, 2026
  • “With plenty of time to recover from last season, Jackson is a ticking time bomb for fantasy production.”

    Ellis Johnson· Jul 23, 2026
  • “Jackson's 2025 performance was marred by injury and a subpar level of play (by his standards). Therefore, while he has tremendous leverage by virtue of the restructure and the $84.34MM cap number it created for 2027, he may want to come to the negotiating table on the heels of a better season.”

    Rory Parks· Jul 12, 2026
  • “Jackson mentioned that Doyle is running a completely different system from what Todd Monken deployed last season, while there are some concepts from what Greg Roman ran in 2022. Jackson expects more "explosiveness" this season, and Doyle is proving to be a very creative playcaller. "I feel like there's going to be a lot of explosiveness this year," Jackson said. "The way Declan calls plays and his creativity with his mind — how detailed he is — it's mind-blowing. I'm excited."”

    Tony Camino· Jul 10, 2026
  • “It was only a season ago that we saw Jackson finish as the QB1 with 425 fantasy points. That was his second time surpassing 400 fantasy points, a threshold that Allen has never exceeded.”

    Ellis Johnson· Jul 10, 2026
  • “Over his final eight starts, Jackson was the QB29 in fantasy points per game (11.9). He completed just 57.6% of his passes (28th) with 7 touchdowns and 6 interceptions. He had the highest inaccurate throw rate in the league over that span (15.8%).”

    Rich Hribar· Jul 9, 2026
Chris Olave
  • “Olave is up against James Pierre this week, who, of all Week 5 starting defensive backs, ranks first in fewest fantasy points per route run allowed, according to the Fantasy Points Data Suite. Pierre is only allowing 0.14 fantasy points per route run, despite being targeted on 17.2% of routes. This is going to be a tough matchup for Olave, and his fantasy managers should be cautious.”

    Adam Murfet· Oct 8, 2026
  • “Chris Olave ranks as their WR7, but no one else projects to be a good start at their position, and Andy is looking away from Saints RBs this week.”

    Jordan Pullett· Oct 10, 2026
  • “Minnesota ranks 13th against WRs, so it is not a terrible matchup, but Olave is getting most of the top targets with double-digit looks in all four games.”

    Brittney Foxworth· Oct 9, 2026

  • “Murray/Hockenson with Olave is my shot at MIN scoring through the air instead of through Jones.”

    Chris Cash· Oct 10, 2026
  • “Saints Fantasy Wide Receiver Preview Chris Olave (TRUST) Olave has double-digit targets in every game, leading to lines of 10-182-0, 8-86-1, and 9-107-0. He has run 132 routes (2nd only to his teammate Devaughn Vele ) but has seen 29% of the targets (WR5) and 47.7% of the air yards (WR4). He has play volume and front-end usage on his side, which has made him a front-end WR1 for fantasy.”

    Rich Hribar· Oct 1, 2026
  • “Olave has had at least 10 targets in each game this season. Olave will be somewhat popular, but with his price the sixth-highest on DraftKings, rostership shouldn’t be too aggressive. He’s a strong stack with Shough and playable as a one-off as well.”

    Tera Roberts· Sep 26, 2026
  • “Chris Olave is second in the league in both catches and receiving yards. Olave is also tied for second with DK Metcalf in total routes run. And yet, Olave is actually second on his own team in routes run.”

    Pat Fitzmaurice· Sep 25, 2026
  • “Chris Olave – 13 targets, 10 rec Devaughn Vele – 9 targets, 7 rec Travis Etienne Jr . – 9 targets, 7 rec The Saints fell to Detroit in that overtime game, but it was not for lack of trying, especially from Tyler Shough , who attempted 56 passes. With that many passes going around, it is not surprising to see a trio of Saints with at least nine targets. Olave averaged 9.8 targets/game last season, while Vele tied his career-high with the nine targets.”

    Aaron Larson· Sep 15, 2026
  • “Playing with a guardian cap in an effort to stave off concussions that have plagued him in the past, Olave is easily Tyler Shough ‘s favorite target and will look to repeat as a mid-range WR1 this season.”

    Evan Tarracciano· Sep 14, 2026
  • “Chris Olave averaged 18.8 fantasy PPG with Tyler Shough. Only Puka Nacua, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Ja’Marr Chase and Amon-Ra St. Brown averaged more in 2025.”

    The FF Newsletter· Sep 3, 2026
  • “Whenever he is on the field opposite Chris Olave (who has his own injury history), Tyson has tremendous upside, offering elite separation ability and versatility across the field.”

    Evan Tarracciano· Aug 31, 2026
  • “Chris Olave (WR – NO) | ADP: 27 (WR11) Chris Olave is in the bucket of players I discussed in the intro who have a high floor and a high ceiling, hence Olave’s average draft position (ADP) at the beginning of the third round in 12-team leagues.”

    Josh Shepardson· Aug 31, 2026
  • “Chris Olave is my answer because the market is still pricing him as a back-end WR1 while I see a legitimate path to a top-five season.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Aug 25, 2026
  • “Round 4: Chris Olave (WR – NO) With Tyler Shough as his quarterback and Rashid Shaheed not on the field, Olave had a near 30% target share.”
