Draft note

by John Paulsen

In his 12 starts as a rookie, Minshew averaged 237 yards, 1.5 touchdowns and 0.3 interceptions, while adding 28 yards rushing. This equates to 16.6 fantasy points per game, which would have been the 15th-highest per game average in 2019. Like Blake Bortles before him, Minshew has the tools to be a solid fantasy asset for a team that is likely to trail most of the 2020 season. He offers good value as the 25th quarterback off the board, especially in best ball formats.

Gardner Minshew in danger of being benched , per report

Ian Rapoport

Oct 25 · 7:32 AM EDT

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Jaguars QB Gardner Minshew could be in danger of being benched if his struggles continue.

Fantasy Impact:

Rapoport says that benching could come as soon as today against the Chargers. Mike Glennon is Minshew’s backup. Minshew has four fumbles and five interceptions during the Jaguars’ five-game losing streak. Head coach Doug Marrone even said he’d be naive to think it’s not a possibility that the team switches quarterbacks. The Jaguars have their bye next week so they’ll certainly be closely evaluating over the next few days.

JAX QB Gardner Minshew - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Los Angeles Chargers
The Jacksonville offense has struggled the past couple of weeks which has led to Gardner Minshew putting the ball in the air often. In the home loss to the Lions last week, on 44 attempts he tossed for 243 yards with both a passing and rushing TD. While he’s accounted for multiple scores in five of the six games this season, he’s had to throw at least 40 passes in five straight. Expect Minshew to again be slinging it at Los Angeles on Sunday against the fourth-worst pass defense, making him a low QB1 play.
