Fantasy Football with Ian Hartitz on Matthew Stafford

QB3 last year available as QB2 price; tied for 5th-most top-5 weekly finishes.

Matthew Stafford finished as QB3 last season and is available as a mid-tier QB2 on certain websites, representing value relative to his recent performance; Ian Hartitz ranks him QB15. Stafford and Jared Goff are tied for the fifth-most top-five weekly fantasy finishes over the past two seasons, comparable to Patrick Mahomes, Baker Mayfield, and Caleb Williams. Touchdown regression is a concern given his 7%+ rate, but better offenses typically see smaller drop-offs, and the Rams are Vegas's fourth-ranked implied offense for 2026.
