Goff is classified as a low-ceiling QB2 available after Round 9, suggesting limited upside and unreliability as a fantasy option in 2026.PositiveProjectionJul 31, 2026
Matt Bowen targets Goff as a stable QB2 option in superflex and standard leagues; averaged 17.5 PPG last season with four games of at least 24 points, plays in the league's second-most explosive offense (27.8 PPG), and has averaged 17.9 PPG over his past three seasons with at least 4,500 passing yards and 30 touchdowns each year. Limited rushing upside (45 yards last season) but excels at rhythm concepts, play-action, and vertical shots with strong field vision and ball placement.PositiveProjectionJul 31, 2026

Goff has scored 17.9 fantasy PPG over the past three seasons with at least 4,500 passing yards and 30 touchdowns in each. Zachariason calls him one of the top pocket throwers in the NFL and says he gives managers stability as a No. 2 in both superflex and redraft leagues.PositiveValueJul 16, 2026
Jared Goff leads the next tier of fantasy QBs beyond the top 15. The Detroit Lions boast arguably the top offense in the sport and perhaps the most attractive schedule. Goff has a fair number of strong partnerships from the previous tier, particularly with Bo Nix and Brock Purdy, making him a worthwhile streaming option at a reasonable ADP.
