From the article

Stafford is identified as a top-end regression candidate after a career-high 7.7% passing TD rate in 2025. The source warns against chasing last year's passing TD efficiency without a large sample size, noting that if last year was an outlier, it's not sustainable and you're buying the quarterback at peak price. The source attributes the production to the Rams desperately trying to get Stafford the MVP award and states: 'Given his age and unlikelihood, LA runs back the same red-zone plan – Stafford is a no-go for me across all formats.' The source also notes he offers no rushing to boost his floor and the Rams could lose key offensive lineman Alaric Jackson to a lengthy suspension.

Stafford's career-high TD rate is unsustainable; he's a regression candidate at peak price.
