Draft note

by John Paulsen

Somewhat limited as a passer, Fields still projects to be a solid fantasy quarterback provided he can hold onto the starting job in New York. In six starts for the Steelers, Fields was the fantasy QB6 at the time that Russell Wilson was installed as the rest-of-season starter. In those six starts, Fields threw five touchdowns and rushed for 289 yards and another five scores. That rushing upside makes him a dangerous fantasy asset. As the Bears' starter from 2022 to 2023 (28 starts), Fields racked up the ninth-most fantasy points with the seventh-highest per-game average, so he's done it before. He'll be ranked as a low-end fantasy QB1 as long as he's projected to start for the Jets.

Jets sign QB Justin Fields to two-year, $40M deal

The Jets are signing QB Justin Fields, as Gang Green gets a new starter. Fields says goodbye to Pittsburgh after 1 year.

He gets a 2-year deal worth $40M with $30M guaranteed in deal.

Related Players: Russell Wilson, Tyrod Taylor

Fantasy Impact:

We'll see if this pushes Pittsburgh to bring Wilson back, but for now, New York will move forward with a 26-year-old in a new home. The Jets will likely look to move the ball on the ground as much as possible, but it's not as if that's not what the Steelers were doing in '24. A full year as a starter puts Fields in legitimate QB1 conversation, with Garrett Wilson contributing to his floor.

PIT QB Justin Fields - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Las Vegas Raiders

While the matchup against the Raiders is solid for Justin Fields, he does have to deal with a shorter leash this week after a rough game in primetime against the Cowboys. The return of Russell Wilson after a full week of practice certainly doesn't help either. However, the comments from offensive coordinator Arthur Smith sounded quite positive about Fields.

The Raiders are 25th aFPA against quarterbacks and, putting aside all the concerns about Fields this week, this is a really solid matchup. Fields is clearly in the QB1 conversation this week as a back-end option. Coming in at QB9, he's a must-start this week.
