Darnold was a top 10 fantasy quarterback with a strong running game in 2025. The loss of Kenneth Walker puts more pressure on the passing game. Darnold may not be a happy choice for fantasy managers, but he will be better than most upside starters.
Jason Wood
QB24
While the Super Bowl win is the stuff of legend, let's not forget Darnold also led the NFL in turnovers. Losing Klint Kubiak as the architect raises the risk that Darnold regresses.
Matt Waldman
QB19
Darnold has become a good NFL starter. The next hope is that he becomes a good fantasy starter in 1 QB leagues.
He was QB14 based on points totals. This was more a testament to his availability for 17 games.
When ranking QBs by points per game, Darnold was QB26 -- QB21 when eliminating QBs from the list who played fewer than 10 games.
Darnold did a great job supporitng Jaxson Smith-Njigba. Can he help the young talents grow into bigger producers?
If so, we might see him creep into the top 10. With the richness of the values in this year's class, I'm willing to wait and see without drafting him.

Let's not forget he led the league in turnovers in 2025 and just lost his offensive guru.

The Super Bowl winner has become a solid starter, obviously. But he's still turnover prone and I think we risk seeing a major retrenchment now that Klint Kubiak is gone.
