The NFL Free Agency Frenzy has been frenetic indeed, as several big names are on the move, including some who signed with rival franchises. (I’m looking at you, Saquon Barkley!) You can find all of my fantasy analysis for the major moves here including Kirk Cousins, Russell Wilson, Tony Pollard, and Josh Jacobs but some other signings will also have an impact. Here’s some of those moves.
Sam Darnold will sign with the Minnesota Vikings
The Vikings lost Kirk Cousins to the Atlanta Falcons, so adding a quarterback was a must. That quarterback, maybe unfortunately for Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, is Darnold. The 26-year-old journeyman will either be the team’s starter or be a bridge to a younger field general the Vikings might pick in the NFL draft. The good news is that Darnold will be in a pass-happy offense with incredible weapons, so he would have late-round fantasy value if he does open as the starter.
