Draft note

by John Paulsen

Justin Herbert finished QB16 last season, but had the 13th-highest per-game average. He was the QB12 in 2022 with the 17th-highest per-game average. So after a QB9 and a QB2 finish in his first two seasons, he has settled into high-end QB2-type territory (#13-#18) in the last two seasons. He has lost his top four options–Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, Austin Ekeler, and Gerald Everett–so his key returners are Joshua Palmer and Quentin Johnston. The Chargers did draft Ladd McConkey and they signed Hayden Hurst and Will Dissly, but obviously the team lost a lot of receiving talent. New HC Jim Harbaugh has also signaled that his offense is going to be run-heavy, so it’s safe to say that things aren’t exactly lining up for Herbert to have a big fantasy season.

Chargers QB Justin Herbert officially off the injury report

Chargers QB Justin Herbert (plantar fascia) is off the injury report -- for real this time -- and good to go for Sunday's opener vs. the Raiders.

WR D.J. Chark (hip) is out.

Related Players: Easton Stick, Taylor Heinicke

Fantasy Impact:

Good news for Herbert and the Chargers in general, but we don't want to touch this passing attack as we head into what could be a slog against the Raiders. Leave the QB on your bench or waiver wire until we find him in a better spot.

LAC QB Justin Herbert - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs. Las Vegas Raiders

Justin Herbert has been a full participant in practice on both Wednesday and Thursday leaving behind any worries that the signal caller would be limited due to his plantar fasciitis injury suffered earlier in the summer.

We'll get our first look at Hebert in this new Jim Harbaugh/Greg Roman offense against an improved Raiders defense. We'll also get a chance to see what the run/pass splits are and just what type of season we're in for with this cast of receivers around him. Can the efficiency offset the lower pass volume, we'll have to see. Projections have Herbert at QB20 on the week. He's a QB2, who likely won't be counted on outside of superflex.
