On paper and for most practical purposes, it was another solid statistical season for the perennial undervalued Kirk Cousins. Learning a new scheme, he guided the explosive Vikings offense to a 13-4 regular season record, throwing for a career high 4,547 yards, and piling up 31 total touchdowns. He'll somehow get blamed for coming up short in the playoffs again, despite the fact he completed 80% of his passes for 273 yards and three total touchdowns in a defensive meltdown against the Giants.
Finishing as a standard scoring QB1 in seven of the last eight years, Cousins enters 2023 as one of the best fantasy values at the position. The Vikings seemed to have gone all-in on the passing game, ditching former All-Pro runner Dalvin Cook and drafting USC receiver Jordan Addison in the 1st round. Throw in the game's best receiver in Justin Jefferson, rising youngster K.J. Osborn, and the 2022 acquisition of T.J. Hockenson, and Cousins has the gourmet ingredients to cook up a fantasy smorgasbord this season. Season that meal with another young defense that's likely to struggle, and Cousins should continue to compile stats as he's done for a majority of his career. He may never get a team over the hump with a deep playoff run, but that hardly matters to your fantasy team. Snag a QB with top-5 upside, at a mid-round price.

Vikings acquire QB Joshua Dobbs from Cardinals QB Jaren Hall expected to start this week for MIN By: Mike Krueger | Tue Oct 31, 1:35 pm

| | The #Vikings are trading for #AZCardinals QB Joshua Dobbs, with plenty of starting experience, per me and @TomPelissero. It helps make up for the loss of Kirk Cousins. And gives MIN a chance. (Ian Rapoport on X)
FFToday's Take: The Vikings were in the QB trade market after losing Kirk Cousins to an Achilles injury in Week 8. Head coach Kevin O'Connell says that QB Jaren Hall is preparing to start this week but it's possible Dobbs could be ready to play. Dobbs breathes some fantasy life into Jordan Addison and T.J. Hockenson that otherwise would've been non-existent with Hall commanding the offense.

| Torn Achilles likely for Kirk Cousins MRI will be taken to confirm By: Mike Krueger | Sun Oct 29, 4:40 pm

| | Kirk Cousins tore his Achilles today, per source. An MRI will be taken to confirm. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Bad news for Cousins and the Vikings. Jaren Hall came in went 3 of 4 for 23 yards in relief. Minnesota have been without Justin Jefferson (hamstring) since Week 6 and will now likely be without Cousins for the remainder of the season.

| Justin Jefferson expected to be placed on IR Hamstring injury By: Mike Krueger | Tue Oct 10, 7:11 am

| | The #Vikings plan to place WR Justin Jefferson on injured reserve because of the hamstring injury he suffered in Sunday’s loss to Kansas City, per sources.
The exact timeline is TBD based on how he responds to treatment. But Jefferson is out at least four games. (Tom Pelissero on X)
FFToday's Take: Ouch. The Vikings offense is based around Jefferson so they'll have to make-do without their best offensive weapon. Brandon Powell saw a 30.6% snap share against the Chiefs last week and will likely see more playing time moving forward. However, Jordan Addison, K.J. Osborn and TE T.J. Hockenson are likely to be the top targets for Kirk Cousins while Jefferson is out.
