The Quarterback...aka the Prom King, Class President,
Valedictorian well unless it's Johnny Manizel you are talking about! He's the leader on and off the field. Everyone knows their name and number - Peyton - 18, Luck - 12...here is what the QB Class of 2014 accomplished:
Fourteen
The number of quarterbacks who posted 300-plus Fantasy
points over the course of the season, up three from 2013.
22.02
The average Fantasy points per game from quarterbacks who
finished in the Top 12, an indicator of what should be considered a "very
good" game. That number is up 0.7 points per game from 2013.
83.3 percent
The highest consistency rate (frequency of getting 20-plus
Fantasy points per game) among all quarterbacks in 2014. It belonged to Carson
Palmer, who had 20-plus in five of six games.
Ten
The number of quarterbacks who had at least 300 Fantasy
points and a consistency rate of at least 50 percent. Some of the folks who
aren't a part of that list: Ben Roethlisberger, Ryan Tannehill, Matthew
Stafford, Cam Newton and Matt Ryan. It confirms that they were the most
volatile quarterbacks in 2014, with Ryan the most dangerous of them all with
over 320 Fantasy points and just six games with 20-plus points on the year
(37.5 percent).
Three
Ryan also tied (with Geno Smith) for the most games with 18
or 19 Fantasy points with three. Had he converted those three games to 20-point
games, he would have had nine with such a high mark and a consistency rate
similar to Brees, Russell Wilson and Eli Manning. Ryan also had nine games last
season with 18-plus Fantasy points.
206
The number of 20-plus-point games by every quarterback in
Fantasy last year. The number is actually down three from 2013.
So, what is your opinion of where to draft a QB? Do you always pick one in the first round or do you wait to see who drops to you later in the draft? Is there a certain one you must have even though he's not in the top 10? Let me know where you think a QB should be drafted?
