NFL 2018: Top 12 Fantasy Quarterbacks

Super Bowl 50 - Carolina Panthers v Denver Broncos
This year saw an influx of QBs drafted in the first round

#10 Philip Rivers – Los Angeles Chargers – 2017 total = 270.4

Oakland Raiders v Los Angeles Chargers
Rivers had a bad season last time around

The 36-year-old Rivers, vastly improved in 2017, as ’16 was a poor year for the veteran. He finished with a QB rating of 96.0, which is above his career average and way ahead of the 87.9 rating he set in 2016.

Rivers showed he can still get the job done when his WRs stay healthy. His rapport with Keenan Allen really came to fruition through the second half of the season, when the two combined for big play after big play.

The Chargers are quietly becoming one of the strongest teams in the NFL. They have a strong defense led by a powerful pass rush and ball-hawking secondary, and playmakers on the offense with Allen, Henry, Williams, Benjamin and Gordon.

It wouldn’t surprise me if Rivers surpassed a few of the QBs ahead of him on this list. Rivers will be available late in most Redraft leagues and will continue to be a dependable start week in, week out.
