Rodgers undervalued at QB28 ADP; McCarthy system elevates volume and scoring ceiling.
Jason Wood identifies Rodgers as his largest positional variance across the entire quarterback landscape. With ADP at QB28, Rodgers is a non-factor in traditional 12-team redraft leagues, but Wood projects him as QB24, moving him into low-end starter consideration in Superflex formats. Wood views him as a far superior late-game draft target compared to several quarterbacks the industry feels more comfortable selecting ahead of him. McCarthy's arrival in Pittsburgh is expected to significantly increase passing volume; McCarthy's teams have ranked 12th in pass attempts and 20th in rushing attempts on average across 21 seasons, equating to 584 passing attempts and 441 rushing attempts in the 17-game era, compared to the Steelers' last five seasons averaging 558 passing attempts and 468 rushing attempts. McCarthy's offensive system is a major positive for Rodgers' fantasy outlook; McCarthy's teams have ranked 10th on average in scoring across 21 seasons as an NFL play-caller, outperforming most long-tenured veteran offensive coaches with a career average scoring rank (10.4) superior to Sean McVay (11.0), Matt LaFleur (12.9), and Kyle Shanahan (14.5), and competitive with Andy Reid (10.3). This elite offensive system should support a more productive scoring environment for Rodgers in Pittsburgh.
