Quarterbacks
Daniel Jones (28) — Following the transition tag ($37.83 million), Jones re-signed a 2-year, $88 million deal with Colts. A viable streamer who will likely be overvalued (in fantasy) as an every-week starter following career-highs in completion rate (68%) and yards per attempt (8.1), Jones’ 4.9% touchdown rate in his first year under HC Shane Steichen was +1.5 percentage points higher than his career average — a worrisome signal for regression.
Kyler Murray (28) — Signed 1-year, $1.3 million deal with Vikings; Cardinals remain on the hook for $36.8 million to Kyler this season. An immediate upgrade over former No. 10 overall pick J.J. McCarthy, who ranked 41st in on-target rate (among 45 qualifiers with 100 dropbacks), whereas Murray ranked 16th. His 5.8 per-game carries (across five starts) last year were also more than McCarthy offered (3.7) with his legs.
Tua Tagovailoa (28) — Signed 1-year, $1.3 million deal with Falcons. Will compete with, ironically, oft-injured teammate Michael Penix to start in Week 1 under HC Kevin Stefanski. Neither are considered draftable in 1-QB season-long leagues.
Malik Willis (26) — Signed 3-year, $67.5 million deal with Dolphins, including $45 million guaranteed, following GM Jon-Eric Sullivan and HC Jeff Hafley from Green Bay. With only 89 passes the past two years, it’s fair to question if OC Bobby Slowik will build the offense around Willis’ strengths, similar to Mike LaFleur‘s approach any time Jordan Love was injured. Regardless of how he performs through the air, Willis’ 6.6 per-game rushing points since 2024 make him an intriguing QB2 with upside.
Kirk Cousins (38)
Aaron Rodgers (42)
Russell Wilson (37)
Joe Flacco (41)
Marcus Mariota (32) — Re-signed 1-year, $7 million deal with Commanders. With $6.4 million guaranteed, Mariota returns as Jayden Daniels‘ clear-cut backup.
Mitchell Trubisky (31) — Signed 2-year deal with Titans. Trubisky, familiar with new Tennessee OC Brian Daboll from Buffalo, will back up Cam Ward in Nashville.
Tyrod Taylor (36)
Kenny Pickett (27) — Signed 1-year deal with Panthers.
Zach Wilson (26)
Trey Lance (26)
Gardner Minshew (30) — Signed 1-year deal with Cardinals. The team already announced Jacoby Brissett would start in 2026.
Jake Browning (30) — Signed 1-year deal with Buccaneers.
Tommy DeVito (27) — Re-signed 2-year, $7.4 million deal with Patriots. The team’s third option behind Drake Maye and Josh Dobbs.
Kyle Allen (30) — Signed 2-year, $4.1 million deal with Bills.
Teddy Bridgewater (33) — Re-signed 1-year deal with Lions.
Running Backs
Breece Hall (24) — Franchise tagged by Jets ($14.293 million), becoming 2026’s fourth-highest paid RB annually behind Saquon Barkley ($20.6 million), Christian McCaffrey ($19 million), and Derrick Henry ($15 million). One of the most explosive backs in the league (with 5.1 yards per touch in every season), Hall’s career-low 8.7% target share (25th) under former OC Tanner Engstrand unsurprisingly resulted in a career-worst 13 PPR PPG (as fantasy’s RB20). An undervalued bet to exceed expectations under new OC Frank Reich (pending the team’s decision under center).
Kenneth Walker III (25) — Signed 3-year, $45 million deal with Chiefs. An obvious RB2 (for fantasy) fit given that Kansas City finished 31st in its rate of 15-yard carries in both 2024 (2.7%) and 2025 (2.6%); Walker ranked third (8.1%) in that metric last year.
Travis Etienne (27) — Signed 4-year, $52 million deal with Saints. 44% of New Orleans’ carries under HC Kellen Moore were zone runs, a scheme that Etienne averaged 4.7 yards per carry on last year. A proven workhorse (and strong RB2 for it) with 296 and 325 touches in two of his last three seasons.
Javonte Williams (25) – Re-signed 3-year, $24 million deal with Cowboys. Career-highs across the board (including 15.2 PPR points per game as fantasy’s RB12) cement Williams as a touch-based RB2 with zilch competition in ‘26; Cowboys representatives reportedly laughed when asked about sophomore Jaydon Blue at the Combine.
JK Dobbins (27) — Re-signed 2-year, $20 million deal with Broncos. Dobbins will likely return as Denver’s lead back ahead of R.J. Harvey, at least to begin 2026.
Kenneth Gainwell (26) — Signed 2-year, $14 million deal with Buccaneers, logically replacing Rachaad White (behind Bucky Irving) as a late-round flier. Benefited from Aaron Rodgers’ unwillingness to throw downfield with career-highs in target share (14.9%) and ensuing points per game (13).
Chris Rodriguez Jr. (25) — Signed 2-year, $10 million deal with Jaguars including $6.2 million guaranteed. A 238-touch workhorse under HC Liam Coen at Kentucky in 2021, Rodriguez’s guaranteed cash is worrisome for Bhayshul Tuten‘s early-down role.
Tyler Allgeier (25) — Signed 2-year, $12.25 million deal with Cardinals, joining a logjammed backfield with James Conner and Trey Benson. Better selection in best ball to avoid the weekly start/sit headache (outside of deeper benches that allow Allgeier to be stashed for multiple games).
Aaron Jones (31) — Re-signed 1-year, $5.5 million deal with Vikings. Handled 58% of the team’s backfield touches as an RB3/4 in 10 full games alongside Jordan Mason (who out-carried Jones inside the five).
Rico Dowdle (28) — Signed deal with Steelers. Dowdle has topped 1,000 rushing yards in consecutive seasons, earning workhorse status in the second half of 2024 under then (and now) HC Mike McCarthy.
Isiah Pacheco (26) — Signed 1-year deal with Lions. Viewed as David Montgomery‘s direct replacement on paper, Pacheco does not dent Jahmyr Gibbs‘ status as the 1.01 given the former’s 3.9 yards per carry and long run of 16 yards against the league’s lowest rate of eight-man boxes last year. Pacheco received zero carries inside the five-yard line in 2025.
Keaton Mitchell (24) — Signed 2-year, $9.25 million deal with Chargers. Last-round best ball option with usable speed under OC Mike McDaniel.
Brian Robinson (26)
Rachaad White (27) — Signed 1-year deal with Commanders. Late-round pass-catching back who could easily outperform his ADP (ahead of Jacory Croskey-Merritt).
Michael Carter (26) — Signed 1-year, $2.765 million deal with Eagles.
Najee Harris (27)
Austin Ekeler (30)
Jeremy McNichols (30)
Ameer Abdullah (32)

Fullbacks
Alec Ingold (29) — Follows former Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel to Chargers on a 2-year, $7.5 million deal.
Patrick Ricard (31) — Signed 2-year, $7.63 million deal with Giants.
Reggie Gilliam (28) — Signed 3-year, $12 million deal with Patriots.
Michael Burton (34)
Wide Receivers
George Pickens (24) – Franchise tagged by Cowboys ($27.2 million). Fantasy’s WR6 in per-game points, Pickens exceeded all expectations in year one with Dallas including leading the league in receiving yards while CeeDee Lamb was out. Comfortable WR2 with a week-winning ceiling if Lamb were injured.
Alec Pierce (25) — Re-signed 4-year, $116 million deal with Colts. One of only two receivers with a 20-yard depth of target last year, Pierce registered a team-high 24% target share with Daniel Jones (torn Achilles) under center. Expected to be overvalued in fantasy following a career-best 12.2 points per game (as the WR27 in per-week production), producing his two highest scores in Weeks 16 (24.6) and 18 (29.2) with Philip Rivers.
Wan’Dale Robinson (25) — Signed 4-year, $78 million deal with Titans. Reunites with OC Brian Daboll, who spammed Robinson with 140 targets in back-to-back years. Cam Ward completed 77.5% of his passes (17th) for a 104 QB rating (12th) within nine yards of the line of scrimmage — where Wan’Dale has historically operated — as opposed to a 38.5% completion rate (19th) on throws 20 yards deep.
Stefon Diggs (32)
Jauan Jennings (28)
Romeo Doubs (25) — Signed 4-year, $68 million deal with Patriots. Inevitably playing in 2-WR sets with Drake Maye (for Doubs’ 82% route participation from out wide), Doubs also proved he can earn targets (as a WR3/4 for fantasy) with a team-high 21% target share during the 531 plays Jordan Love was under center.
Mike Evans (32) — Signed 3-year, $60.4 deal with 49ers. Scored his fewest TDs (3) in the last decade due to a career-low eight games played in his age-32 season. Now joins play-calling guru Kyle Shanahan in an offense that’s finished top-nine in yards per attempt in every campaign since 2019. An oft-injured WR3 with a week-winning ceiling when available.
Tyreek Hill (31)
Rashid Shaheed (27) — Re-signed 3-year, $51 million deal with Seahawks. He got $34.7 million guaranteed. Shaheed’s offensive involvement following last year’s trade from New Orleans underwhelmed, but he’ll now have a full offseason to establish rapport with Sam Darnold.
Jalen Nailor (26) — Signed 3-year, $35 million deal with Raiders. Six of Nailor’s 10 touchdowns the past two years encouragingly came 10+ yards downfield.
Deebo Samuel (30)
Darnell Mooney (28)
Keenan Allen (33)
Marquise Brown (28)
Christian Kirk (29)
Curtis Samuel (29)
John Metchie (25) — Signed 1-year deal with Panthers.
Calvin Austin (26) — Signed 1-year, $1.5 million deal with Giants.
Jalen Tolbert (26)
Treylon Burks (25) — Re-signed 1-year, $4 million deal with Commanders. Third on the team in targets (behind Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel) in three starts to close the year.
Kendrick Bourne (30) — Signed 2-year, $11.47 million with Cardinals. Bourne is a veteran dirty-work receiver who catches everything and blocks but doesn’t stretch the field.
Sterling Shepard (33)
Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (28)
Tim Patrick (32)
Brandin Cooks (32)
Tyquan Thornton (25) — Re-signed 2-year, $11 million deal with Chiefs. Viable last-round best ball pick after Thornton led the Chiefs with a 21.2% target share (over Travis Kelce‘s 18.2% share) in Weeks 2 and 3 without Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy.
Jahan Dotson (25) — Signed 2-year, $15 million deal with Falcons.
Kalif Raymond (31) — Signed 1-year, $5.1 million deal with Bears. Replaces Devin Duvernay and Olamide Zaccheaus on special teams.

Zay Jones (30)
Chris Moore (32)
Isaiah Hodgins (27) — Re-signed 1-year deal with Giants.
Braxton Berrios (30)
Hunter Renfrow (30)
Tight Ends
Travis Kelce (36) — Re-signed 1-year, $12 million deal with Chiefs. He can earn an additional $3 million via incentives. Kelce’s playmaking ability has diminished, but he remains a reliable possession target for Patrick Mahomes, and their bankable on-field chemistry keeps Kelce fantasy relevant even at his advanced age.
Kyle Pitts (25) – Franchise tagged by Falcons ($15.04 million). 26 in October, Pitts is set up for on-paper success under new HC Kevin Stefanski given the latter’s play-calling in Cleveland, targeting his TEs at a top-nine rate in every season.
David Njoku (29)
Dallas Goedert (31)
Isaiah Likely (25) — Signed 3-year, $40 million deal with Giants, reuniting with HC John Harbaugh. For what it’s worth, Baltimore’s offense targeted its TEs at a top-10 rate in every season since 2016.
Chig Okonkwo (26) — Signed 3-year, $27 million deal with Commanders. The TE27 in per-game points with Cam Ward.
Cade Otton (26) — Re-signed 3-year, $30 million deal with Bucs. We know what we have in Otton at this point, but his red-zone role could expand slightly following Mike Evans‘ departure.
Tyler Higbee (33) — Re-signed 2-year, $8 million deal with Rams. 36% route share to Colby Parkinson‘s 54% and Terrance Ferguson‘s 40% shares upon returning from injury in Week 18 (through the postseason). Out-targeted by Parkinson 4-3 inside the red zone in that span.
Jake Tonges (26) — Re-signed 2-year, $8 million deal with 49ers. The TE9 in points per game with a route on 72% of dropbacks in six starts for George Kittle.
Jonnu Smith (30)
Will Dissly (29)
Tyler Conklin (30)
Noah Fant (28) — Signed 2-year deal with Saints. Fant has plateaued as a rotational, receiving-only tight end but gives the Saints’ 12-personnel options alongside Juwan Johnson.
Darren Waller (33)
Adam Trautman (29) — Re-signed 3-year, $17 million deal with Broncos. A player HC Sean Payton, for whatever reason, doesn’t know how to quit.
Foster Moreau (28) — Signed with Texans. Played 11 games for the Saints in 2025 after opening the year on their PUP list (for an ankle injury).
Daniel Bellinger (25) — Signed 3-year, $21 million deal with Titans. Familiar with OC Brian Daboll‘s playbook the moment camp opens.
Kylen Granson (27)
Austin Hooper (31)
Mo Alie-Cox (32)
Zach Ertz (35)

Charlie Kolar (27) — Signed 3-year, $24.3 million deal with Chargers. Elite run-blocking replacement for free agent TE Will Dissly.

Jawaan Taylor (28)
Cam Robinson (30)
Alijah Vera-Tucker (26) — Signed 3-year, $42 million deal with Patriots. Oft-injured throughout his career, AVT is currently penciled in as New England’s starting LG (over Ben Brown).
Jonah Williams (28)
Jermaine Eluemunor (31) — Re-signed 3-year, $39 million deal with Giants. Eluemunor has shored up right tackle for the G-Men, a longtime trouble spot in New York. He also knows new HC John Harbaugh from their time together in Baltimore.
Trey Pipkins (29) — Re-signed 2-year, $10 million deal with Chargers. Depth as a swing tackle.

Interior Offensive Linemen
Tyler Linderbaum (25) — Signed 3-year, $81 million deal with Raiders (including $60 million guaranteed), becoming the highest-paid interior offensive lineman in league history. PFF’s fourth-highest graded C in run blocking last year, Linderbaum replaces Jordan Meredith, who ranked 29th in that metric.
David Edwards (29) — Signed 4-year, $61 million deal with Saints. Elite 95% Pass Block Win Rate in 2025, immediately helping sophomore QB Tyler Shough.

Cade Mays (26) — Signed 3-year, $25 million deal with Lions, addressing a position in Detroit that was never adequately filled following Frank Ragnow‘s retirement.
Ed Ingram (27) — Re-signed 3-year, $37.5 million deal with Texans. Both Ingram and Trent Brown (also re-signed with Houston) ranked as PFF’s best gap-running blockers, suggesting an emphasis towards that scheme (and away from zone blocking) in 2026. Note that new Texans RB David Montgomery averaged 5.7 yards per carry (fifth at his position) in gap blocking schemes last year, per FTN Fantasy.
Joel Bitonio (34)
Alijah Vera-Tucker (26) — Signed 3-year, $42 million deal with Patriots.

Brady Christensen (29)

Notable Restricted Free Agents
Chargers RB Kimani Vidal — Exclusive rights tender ($1.075 million). Four top-12 finishes (across seven starts) for Omarion Hampton, then out-touched 48-33 with zero opportunities inside the five-yard line over his last three games with Hampton.
Seahawks RB George Holani (27) — Exclusive rights tender ($1.075 million). Next man up (once Kenneth Walker officially signs elsewhere) with Zach Charbonnet (torn ACL) unlikely to be cleared for September.
Buccaneers RB Sean Tucker (24) — Exclusive rights tender ($3.547 million). Team-high nine carries inside the five-yard line.
Broncos RB Jaleel McLaughlin (25)
Packers RB Emanuel Wilson (26) — Signed 1-year, $2.1 million deal with Seahawks. Although Wilson could open the year as the team’s starter (while Zach Charbonnet recovers from his torn ACL), Seattle is expected to use the No. 32, 64, or 96 pick on another (if not multiple) RB. Wilson encouragingly produced 30/125/2 from scrimmage in his only start for Josh Jacobs last year.
Cardinals RB Zonovan Knight (24)
Raiders C Jordan Meredith — Exclusive rights tender ($3.547 million).
Panthers WR Jalen Coker (25) — Exclusive rights tender ($1.075 million). Mirrored teammate and No. 8 overall pick Tetairoa McMillan with a 19.4% target share over their last five games together, Wild Card included.
Vikings LB Ivan Pace — Low tender ($3.52 million). Lost his job to 31-year-old Eric Wilson (who re-signed with the Vikings) last year.
Broncos CB Ja’Quan McMillian (26) – Second-round tender ($5.7 million). McMillian’s 9.2 yards per catch allowed in coverage ranked sixth among 120 qualifiers with 20% of snaps.
Rams K Harrison Mevis — Exclusive rights tender ($1.005 million). 6 for 6 on field goals in the Divisional Round against the Bears, and 9 for 9 on extra points across Los Angeles’ three playoff games.
Cowboys K Brandon Aubrey (31) — Second-round tender ($5.76 million), allowing Dallas the right to match any offer sheet Aubrey signs with another team; expected to ink a deal that makes him the league’s highest-paid kicker.
Notable Offseason Trades
- Jets acquired DT T’Vondre Sweat from Titans in exchange for EDGE Jermaine Johnson, the latter who earned a Pro Bowl nod with 7.5 sacks under then (and now) HC Robert Saleh in New York — he totaled 5.5 sacks in three surrounding seasons. Jets are hoping Sweat helps recoup a strength that was lost upon dealing Quinnen Williams, sinking to 23rd in Success Rate and 26th in explosive run rate allowed after the trade.
- Browns acquired RT Tytus Howard from Texans in exchange for a 2026 fifth-round pick; immediately signed to a 3-year, $63 million million deal with Cleveland. The first impactful domino to fall under new HC Todd Monken, Howard’s 4.9% pressure rate allowed in 2025 was superior to any of Cam Robinson’s (17.2%), Jack Conklin’s (16%), and Dawand Jones’ (11.7%), all of whom the Browns deployed at RT.
- Texans acquired RB David Montgomery from Lions in exchange for G Juice Scruggs, a 2026 fourth-round pick, and a 2027 seventh-round pick. A win-win for both Jahmyr Gibbs and Montgomery, as Gibbs has averaged 27.4 PPR points in six career starts without D-Mont; Gibbs is now neck-and-neck with Bijan Robinson as this year’s 1.01. As for Montgomery, Houston previously acquired Joe Mixon in 2024 (for only a seventh-round pick) and handed him 20 touches weekly as the per-game RB9. Even with Woody Marks projected to play on passing downs, Montgomery should be viewed as a boring volume-based RB2 (considering Marks rushed for 75 yards in one appearance all year).
- Rams acquired CB Trent McDuffie from Chiefs in exchange for the 2026 No. 29 overall pick, a fifth- and sixth-round selection, and a 2027 third-round pick; became the league’s highest-paid CB in signing a 4-year, $124 million deal in joining LA. Familiar with Rams DB coach Jimmy Lake from their time together at the University of Washington, McDuffie ranked as PFF’s No. 21, 11, 7, and 17 CB in coverage since being drafted.
- Bills acquired WR D.J. Moore and a 2026 fifth-round pick from Bears in exchange for the 2026 No. 60 overall pick. Chicago only ran 148 plays with Moore off the field last year, but Luther Burden III was targeted on a team-high 34% of his routes on said plays — for reference, Puka Nacua led the league in being targeted on 37% of his routes. Although Burden should be viewed in the same fourth-round tier as Davante Adams and Ladd McConkey (among others), Rome Odunze will undoubtedly become an overlooked value several rounds later. Moore at the very least is familiar with HC Joe Brady‘s playbook (stemming from their time together with the Panthers in 2020-21) and has no competition for deep targets as a strong WR3: Bills comically started Khalil Shakir, Brandin Cooks, and Curtis Samuel in two postseason games.
- Bears acquired C Garrett Bradbury from Patriots in exchange for a 2027 fifth-round pick. Immediately replaces retired C Drew Dalman in Chicago, starting every game (across 1,336 snaps) in New England last year.
- Packers acquired LB Zaire Franklin from Colts in exchange for DT Colby Woolen. A 2024 Pro Bowler who led the NFL in tackles (173) last year, 30-year-old Franklin was shipped from Indy solely for GM Chris Ballard‘s stated goal of getting “younger and faster” on defense. Woolen, 25, most recently led Green Bay’s defensive line in tackles.
- Raiders acquired CB Taron Johnson from Bills in exchange for 2026 sixth- and seventh-round picks. Initially scheduled to be released by Buffalo, Johnson’s 122 defensive stops since 2022 rank first among all CBs in that time.
- Cowboys acquired DL Rashan Gary from Packers in exchange for a 2027 fourth-round pick. The No. 12 overall pick in 2019, Gary registered 7.5 sacks playing alongside Micah Parsons in their first seven games together, then struggled to produce (with zero sacks over his last nine appearances) as the team’s primary pass rusher to close the year.
- Jets acquired S Minkah Fitzpatrick from Dolphins in exchange for a 2026 seventh-round pick; signed to a 3-year, $40 million deal in New York. Familiarity with new Jets DC Brian Duker and safeties coach Ryan Slowik from Miami.
- Steelers acquired WR Michael Pittman and a 2026 seventh-round pick from Colts in exchange for a 2026 sixth-round pick; signed 3-year, $59 million deal with Steelers upon joining them. Pittman offers an unappealing ceiling for fantasy in 2026 (pending the team’s direction under center) given its 45% target rate to WRs (30th).
- Jets acquired QB Geno Smith and a 2026 seventh-round pick from Raiders in exchange for a 2026 sixth-round pick. Even in most recently producing his fewest yards per attempt (6.8) and points per game (11.6) since joining Seattle, Smith’s Expected Completion Rate (69.9%) finished second among his peers as a last-round streamer.
- 49ers acquired DT Osa Odighizuwa from Cowboys in exchange for the 2026 No. 92 overall pick. Initially signed to a 4-year, $80 million deal in March 2025, Dallas has since traded for DTs Kenny Clark and Quinnen Williams (thus making Odighizuwa expendable).
- Titans acquired DL Solomon Thomas and a 2026 seventh-round pick from Cowboys in exchange for a (better) 2026 seventh-round pick. Thomas previously played under HC Robert Saleh.
