2nd Ben Roethlisberger
|
Big Ben Roethlisberger had him self a year in 2018! He completed 452 of his 675 passing attempts for 5,129 yards, 34 touchdowns, 16 interceptions and 3 sneaky rushing touchdowns. Roethlisberger finished as the number three fantasy football quarterback in 2019 averaging 25.6 fantasy
points per game in 6 point per touchdown scoring. Like stated above Roethlisberger finished as the number three QB in 2018. He led the league with attempts and completions something he won’t do again in 2019. He finished as a QB 1-6, 31.25% of the time and as a QB 1-12, 62.5% of the time. This was the first time he played 16 games since 2014 and if he can do that again in 2019, he could have a good year. Big Ben is only getting older the likely hood of a big hit knocking him out of the game or for an entire season continues to grow. I think he will drop in both attempts and completions in 2019 with Antonio Brown gone and younger wide receivers stepping up. There are a lot of question marks on this offense. Not one other player besides Roethlisberger is a proven fantasy asset year in and year out. Juju is not proven yet. He could have a big year, but he has never been the one on the team. This is a team that is trying to become more balanced by using James Conner more in the running game. Roethlisberger is being drafted at the 11.07 and is the 17 th QB off the board. If you can get him here, I think you will be happy with him, just don’t expect what you got in 2018. |
