Andy Dalton

Dalton returns to Carolina this season to back up and mentor second-year QB Bryce Young. Last season, Dalton started one game for an injured Young and passed for 361 yards -- more than Young totaled in any game -- and two touchdowns -- matched by Young just once last season. Like last year, Dalton won't have much help if pressed into action again, though the Panthers acquired wideout Diontae Johnson this offseason and drafted Xavier Legette, who has 4.39 speed, in the first round. The hiring of head coach Dave Canales, the former Tampa Bay offensive coordinator who turned Baker Mayfield into a viable QB last season, should benefit whoever's under center. If it's Dalton, he'll offer a steady veteran hand, but that might not be enough for a QB2 fantasy role, especially considering he lacks rushing upside.
