Sam Darnold Note

Sam Darnold resurrected his career in Minnesota last season and now heads to the Pacific Northwest to take over as Seattle's starting quarterback. Darnold finished QB9 in fantasy scoring last year, throwing for 4,319 yards, with 35 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. He completed a career-high 66.2% of his passes and averaged 7.9 yards per pass attempt. The question is whether Darnold can duplicate his success in what appears to be a lesser offense environment. Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell is regarded as a top playcaller, and Darnold won't have Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison to throw to this season. Now, Darnold will be running Klint Kubiak's offense and throwing to Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp. Darnold is still being viewed skeptically by fantasy analysts, who have him ranked outside the top 24 at QB in FantasyPros' Expert Consensus Rankings. Darnold seemed to collapse at the end of the season, completing 53% and averaging 5.1 yards per attempt in a Week 18 loss to the Lions and a playoff loss to the Rams.
