# Pat Fitzmaurice: Fitzmorris agrees Judkins will be a bell cow but thinks their yardage/TD projections are too aggressive, is excited about Colson Loveland as their TE3 with room to exceed their projection, ranks Jackson Dart QB13 and Jared Goff QB19, sides with the bullish Jameson Williams projection, and calls the Rashee Rice projection too rosy given injury and off-field risk. **Claimed:** Jun 14, 2026 **Pundit:** Pat Fitzmaurice — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/pat-fitzmaurice **Outlet:** FantasyPros Fantasy Football Podcast (podcast) — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/fantasypros-fantasy-football-podcast-podcast **How it reached us:** said on air or in an interview **Original:** https://omny.fm/shows/fantasypros-fantasy-football-podcast/6-fantasy-football-players-projections-love-big-seasons-coming-for-these-picks-ep-2054 8 checkable claims — 4 positional finishes, 2 fantasy bust calls, 1 depth chart call and 1 sleeper call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 11 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 5 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 2 and below it on 3. > I just don't feel the projections are baking in the injury risk and the poor judgment risk here, simple as that. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Jared Goff to finish top 19 at his position, by fantasy points** - Kind: Positional Finishes · About: Jared Goff, Detroit Lions - Verdict: not settled yet - **Quinshon Judkins to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Quinshon Judkins, Cleveland Browns - Verdict: not settled yet - **Colston Loveland to finish top 3 at his position, by fantasy points** - Kind: Positional Finishes · About: Colston Loveland, Chicago Bears - Verdict: not settled yet - **Colston Loveland to outplay his draft cost (forty one overall tight end number three)** - Kind: Sleeper Calls · About: Colston Loveland, Chicago Bears - Verdict: not settled yet - **Rashee Rice to fall short of his draft cost (twenty seven overall wide receiver twelve)** - Kind: Fantasy Bust Calls · About: Rashee Rice, Kansas City Chiefs - Verdict: not settled yet - **Jaxson Dart to fall short of his draft cost (seventy eight overall on the ECR ...
