| Pat Fitzmaurice FantasyPros | It took Sam Darnold seven seasons to finally get his footing as an NFL starter, but he's now put together two splendid seasons, culminating in a Super Bowl victory with the Seahawks. Darnold began his career with three nightmarish seasons as a Jet, fared little better in two seasons as a Panther, and spent one season as a backup with the 49ers before finally breaking through with the Vikings in 2024. He signed with the Seahawks in 2025 and guided the team to a 14-3 regular-season record and a 3-0 run through the playoffs. Over the last two regular seasons, Darnold has completed 66.9% of his throws and averaged 8.2 yards per pass attempt, with 60 TD passes, 26 interceptions, and a passer rating of 100.9. He's finished QB9 and QB13 in fantasy scoring the last two years. Darnold averaged only 28.1 pass attempts per game last season, as the Seahawks ran the ball at the third-highest rate in the league. Darnold must adjust to a new offensive coordinator, Brian Fleury, now that former Seahawks OC Klint Kubiak has taken the Raiders' head-coaching job. But it's possible Seattle throws at a higher rate this year, which could potentially boost Darnold's passing numbers. | Although the Panthers have picked up the fifth-year option on Bryce Young, this still seems like a crossroads season for the former No. 1 overall draft pick. Young has taken small steps forward in his three seasons as the Panthers' starter, but perhaps not enough to secure his status as Carolina's long-term starter. He hit career highs last season in passing yards (3,011), TD passes (23) and completion percentage (63.6%), while reaching a career low in sack rate (5.4%). But Young averaged just 188.2 passing yards per game and 6.3 yards per pass attempt last season. It sometimes seemed as if Panthers head coach Dave Canales was trying to hide his quarterback, with Young attempting 25 or fewer passes in half of his 16 starts. Young's finishes in fantasy points per game (nine games minimum) in his three years with the Panthers: QB29, QB23, QB24. It's hard to see Young as anything but a backup in superflex leagues or extremely deep 1QB leagues. |
