this is another one of those you don't get big win upside here. I think Sam Darnold ran really hot last year throwing the ball down the football field.

Darnold lacks win upside and faces regression risk

Sam Darnold lacks significant win upside for fantasy, as he is prone to regression after running hot last year and plays in an offense that limits his passing volume due to an elite defense.
