Headliners Take
Matthew Stafford enters 2025 at age 37, fresh off a quietly strong fantasy season. The swap of Cooper Kupp for Davante Adams is a major upgrade in terms of red zone threat and deep-ball upside.
With Puka Nacua handling short-to-intermediate routes, Adams commanding defensive attention downfield, and Tutu Atwell stretching the perimeter, Stafford is equipped with a versatile group of playmakers in a system that still leans pass-heavy under McVay.
While he may not be a weekly QB1 in single-quarterback formats, Stafford is a high-priority QB2 in Superflex and 2-QB leagues, offering weekly stability and multi-touchdown upside in favorable matchups.
