"Goff makes for a tricky evaluation in his 10th NFL season, as his seventh-place showing in fantasy PPG in 2024 was the first time he ever finished better than 10th. With Ben Johnson leading the offense, Goff has finished sixth or better in passing yards and TDs each of the last three seasons, but he adds almost nothing with his legs (150 yards and two TDs total during the three seasons). Even during a productive 2024, Goff was inconsistent, as he posted eight top-10 fantasy weeks but was 17th or worse the other nine weeks. Especially with Johnson off to Chicago, Goff is likely to see some regression in key efficiency categories (his 72% completion rate and 8.6 YPA last season were way above his previous career highs) and, coupled with his lack of rushing, he has a very low fantasy ceiling. Goff will remain a productive passer, but he's no more than a QB2 with occasional streaming appeal."


"Goff lost a fumble on the Lions' third offensive possession, though things otherwise were relatively on track for the offense early in the contest. He led two touchdown drives by midway through the second quarter, highlighted by a two-yard touchdown pass to Sam LaPorta. However, Goff went on to throw a pick-six and then was intercepted again just before halftime to end a scoring threat. Finally, with the game still in reach, he threw another interception in the end zone early in the fourth quarter. Goff's uncharacteristic mistakes were ultimately too much to overcome, with Detroit shockingly being eliminated as a result. Goff will enter the 2025 season in the first year of a four-year extension and will lead the Lions offense, albeit likely without offensive coordinator Ben Johnson."

"Watson is entering his fourth year with the Packers, but he's unlikely to return before midseason after suffering a torn ACL in Week 18 of last season. The injury is yet another setback for a player who has missed 13 regular season games, including, at least, two all three years. Even when healthy, the 2022 second-round pick has failed to live up to his pedigree, having yet to produce a top-30 fantasy campaign. He's all but settled in as a situational deep threat, ranking second in aDOT each of the last two seasons. On the plus side, Watson ranked second among receivers in YPT (11.5) and YPR (21.4) last season, which allowed a career-high 620 receiving yards. Perhaps a healthy Watson will eventually find his way back to fantasy relevance, but the 26-year-old is well off the radar in 2025."


"LaFleur said Watson's work ethic approaching his ACL rehab has been impressive, per Ryan Wood of USA Today, but the timing of the young wideout's injury sheds serious doubt on his availability for the early portion of the regular season. Green Bay also invested significant draft capital at the wide receiver position in April's draft in the form of first-round pick Matthew Golden and third-rounder Savion Williams. With all of Jayden Reed (shoulder), Romeo Doubs (concussion), Dontayvion Wicks, Bo Melton, Mecole Hardman (knee) and Malik Heath also on hand, the Packers boast one of the league's most crowded receiver rooms, meaning Watson will face tough competition for snaps even if he enjoys an exceptional recovery timeline."
