Not sure how he could reach #2 in any scoring format.
Is your league's championship week 17? If not then I'm not sure it's fair to use his numbers from the last week.Last 4 games, 14-17. He didn't do much in week 13 vs the bears.
Of course it is. Jimmy Garoppolo doesn't care about your fantasy league.Is your league's championship week 17? If not then I'm not sure it's fair to use his numbers from the last week.
But we're talking about fantasy football performance, aren't we?Of course it is. Jimmy Garoppolo doesn't care about your fantasy league.
We're talking about Garoppolo's performance and trying to project it to fantasy value. Two different things, Garoppolo's season doesn't end in week 16 so his week 17 production is absolutely relevant.But we're talking about fantasy football performance, aren't we?
Alright. Makes sense then. Was he still the second ranked QB as claimed or does that really matter considering the mess that the final week of the season is?We're talking about Garoppolo's performance and trying to project it to fantasy value. Two different things, Garoppolo's season doesn't end in week 16 so his week 17 production is absolutely relevant.
I am open to a position that his end of season PPG or total points production needs to account for the fact that they played the Rams who rested plenty of starters which probably skewed his stats for that game, but what he did on the field in week 17 will factor in to 2018 projections.
What matters is ultimately up to the individual.Alright. Makes sense then. Was he still the second ranked QB as claimed or does that really matter considering the mess that the final week of the season is?
Even being very generous in adjusting for performance and week 17 motivations I have difficulty putting him any higher than QB#10 over that time frame in my league.Alright. Makes sense then. Was he still the second ranked QB as claimed or does that really matter considering the mess that the final week of the season is?
Along both of those lines: whomever is the Jags' QB next year. Bortles had to be one of the most surprising players of the year and you got him for dirt. He has weapons but he's still Blake Bortles. He still might be a late round steal as he had a decent couple of weeks in the last quarter of the season and also gets Robinson back.The guys who will end up being sleepers are the people who, right now, the market has legitimate doubts about. Think of how we regarded Gurley and Hopkins at this time a year ago.
One name to keep an eye on: Allen Robinson. Unclear if he'll still be on the Jags, or who his QB will be, but the fact that he's coming off an ACL tear, and was disappointing the previous year, means he could slide under the radar.
My rule with drafting QBs is that I want to take late-round guys who have the upside to become every-week starters. (That strategy worked out very well for me this year when I got Wentz. Less so on the team where I got Palmer.)Along both of those lines: whomever is the Jags' QB next year. Bortles had to be one of the most surprising players of the year and you got him for dirt.

Even if he's not their QB, whomever would take those reins walks into a pretty solid looking offense and a defense that'll constantly put you in a good position.
Rams took the week off. Good for JG but I would throw out that week as an aberration.We're talking about Garoppolo's performance and trying to project it to fantasy value. Two different things, Garoppolo's season doesn't end in week 16 so his week 17 production is absolutely relevant.

DeMarco just put up 1,650 yards and 12 TDs a year ago in that offense. Was RB6 and ADP10 last year last September.Derrick Henry.
ESPN's Cameron Wolfe believes there's a "decent chance" DeMarco Murray has played his final snap in a Titans uniform.
Already ruled out for the Divisional Round, Murray, who has a torn MCL, would be a long-shot for the AFC Championship Game even if the Titans sprang a seismic upset on Saturday night. One month shy of his 30th birthday, Murray slumped to a career-worst 3.58 yards per carry as he played injured in 2017. 23-year-old sophomore Derrick Henry has looked more than capable of taking over the Titans' workhorse role. If Murray is cut, his entire $6.5 million salary would come off the books, leaving behind no dead money.
But no one will when preparing for next year's redrafts.DropKick said:Rams took the week off. Good for JG but I would throw out that week as an aberration.
Crazy world we live in where Tyrod Taylor is an upgrade to the qb on a division champion. You might be right but if they upgrade I'd assume they'd want more of an upgrade than ty.zftcg said:My rule with drafting QBs is that I want to take late-round guys who have the upside to become every-week starters. (That strategy worked out very well for me this year when I got Wentz. Less so on the team where I got Palmer.)
The problem with Bortles is that he may end up being a decent streamer, but he's unlikely to become an every week starter. So I doubt I would look to draft him next year.
On the other hand, if Jax even slightly upgrades its QB -- say, Alex Smith or Tyrod -- I would be more intrigued. We saw what the Jax QB can do when the defense stakes him a lead.
That's fine, but the aberration was right in line with his other performances. Actually was his lowest rating, and for ff lower than his two previous weeks. (Again, your league may differ). If you simply mean you won't expect 300/2/2 at the Rams next year, ok. But that game wasn't much different than his performances against Houston, Tennessee and Jacksonville. Two of which obviously won last week largely due to their defenses.DropKick said:Rams took the week off. Good for JG but I would throw out that week as an aberration.
That won't mean squat to Henry if he's not in Tennessee in 2018. Saving 6.5 million on a 30 year old RB is a no brainer.BigSteelThrill said:DeMarco just put up 1,650 yards and 12 TDs a year ago in that offense. Was RB6 and ADP10 last year last September.
Yep. I view him as a solid QB2. Nothing more. Not looking to buy. Would pay an early 3 for him, that’s it. Based on what I’m seeing in other threads many seem to be viewing him as worthy of a 1st which means he must be top 5? Crazy to me.Is Jimmy Garoppolo overvalued?
He faced a tough pass D in Chicago and was meh. He had 290 yards, 0 TDs, and 1 INT.
He faced a bad Texans D and put up 330, 1, and 1. And a mediocre Tennessee D and put up 380 and 1 TD.
The game that a lot of people point to is the Jags game where he put up 22 points (in a 4 pt per passing TD league). But that could be a deceptive game to point to. The Jags played across the country twice this year, and both times they allowed 240 yards and 2 TDs. To Jimmy Garoppolo, and ... Blaine Gabbert. The Jags just didn't travel well.
His last game he faced an ok pass D in the Rams, and put up a mediocre score, 15 points.
He was hampered by coming in so late and having little time to get acclimated to the offense, but he also doesn't have too much tape for defensive coordinators to learn how to scheme against him. He's almost like facing off against a rookie (who often regress in their second years). I'm not sure how high people are looking at Jimmy G, but I've heard analysts gushing over him and it might be time to pump the brakes a bit.
What about Goodwin all he did was produce when Jimmy G. went in Garcon went out.Garcon?
Players you will be targeting in 2018Until I get a better read on what RBs might fall, Baker Mayfield = Picking late In the first of a dynasty rookie draft.
Jesus man. Not calling you out at all - lots of calls that were off in here. But wow, hopefully it didn’t go down like that for you last year.I would guess Jordy Nelson, Demaryius Thomas, Dez Bryant, DeVante Parker, and Jay Ajayi will be on a lot of my teams next year
Thankfully other than Thomas, I guessed wrong.Jesus man. Not calling you out at all - lots of calls that were off in here. But wow, hopefully it didn’t go down like that for you last year.
