2. Alex Smith, Washington Redskins

No need to drag this one out. The Arizona Cardinals are not good. Alex Smith is quite good for fantasy as evidenced by his QB4 finish last season.

His options may be downgraded with the Redskins, but he will make it work just fine. Smith is a weekly starter.

1. DeShaun Watson, Houston Texans

Going up against the Patriots, there’s no need to be nervous about Watson. If you’ll recall, Watson almost beat the Patriots last season, losing just by a few points.

Watson is going against New England’s defense, which he shredded last year. Additionally, that group looks even worse on paper after losing Malcolm Butler to free agency. If you are wondering how big of an impact the loss of Butler might have, go watch Super Bowl LII.

Watson can do it all. Do not worry about him whatsoever. Period. End of story.
