The SB Nation gang ranks the top 25 quarterbacks heading into the 2018 season.
Training camps are beginning, which means the 2018 season is ever so close. More importantly, it is now fantasy football draft season!
The quarterback landscape will be an interesting one this year with several fantasy studs returning from 2017 seasons lost to injury. The most obvious is Aaron Rodgers, who’s annually one of the best players in fantasy football. A broken collarbone limited him to just seven games and 16 touchdowns.
Now, Rodgers is healthy and has added Jimmy Graham to his arsenal of pass-catchers. Expect the NFL MVP to rebound and get back to being one of, if not the best fantasy quarterback in 2018.
Another quarterback coming off significant injury is Deshaun Watson, who took the league by storm as a rookie last year before a torn ACL ended his season. Prior to the injury, Watson was No. 1 in fantasy points per game among quarterbacks. Expect him to be an elite fantasy quarterback if he stays healthy this season.
Then you’ve got Kirk Cousins leaving Washington to join the Minnesota Vikings, who lost Case Keenum to the Denver Broncos. Washington, meanwhile, landed Alex Smith in a deal with the Kansas City Chiefs, who are now relying on Patrick Mahomes as their starter. Needless to say, there’s been a lot of movement in the quarterback landscape this year.
