QB13 finish 2024; current ECR QB22; per-game: QB27 PPG (QB24 ex-backups); 'Darnold's lack of rushing upside and to an extent his turnover problem also hold his numbers back'; 'low ceiling pocket passer'

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Finished QB13 last year but ranked QB22 currently. Per-game analysis reveals QB27 PPG (QB24 excluding backups), suggesting regression or injury luck last year. Community argues Darnold's lack of rushing upside and turnover issues limit ceiling even if targets increase. Multiple comments note QB is deep this year with 26+ usable starters; Darnold's low ceiling as pocket passer makes him risky for supporting multiple pass-catchers.
