Sharp take
Sharp SixBenchThe starting quarterback is starting, which is not news you build a lineup around. A 40.5-point total is the lowest ceiling on the slate, and Darnold's Week 1 line of 0.7 FFPC points is the kind of number you check twice. He sits at 186 in sharp rank with negative value over replacement, so even the confirmation leaves him as a bye-week patch at best. Leave him on the bench. If you have no other quarterback, you have a bigger problem than this game.
