QUARTERBACKS


PlayerAtt.Comp.YardsTDINTRushYardsTDPoints
Aaron Rodgers530.5348.83952.226.265.0443.5182.71.74281.76
The days of Aaron Rodgers being a perennial top-two performer are over. Since taking over from Brett Favre in 2008, Rodgers has finished as the QB1 or QB2 in seven of his first eight full seasons. In his two most recent campaigns, however, the future first-ballot HOFer has finished as fantasy's QB6 and QB9, respectively. In a draft loaded with wide receiver talent, the Packers brass failed to add any help for Rodgers and free-agent addition Devin Funchess has opted opt due to COVID-19 concerns.

RUNNING BACKS


PlayerAtt.YardsTDRec.YardsTDPoints
Aaron Jones205.2933.78.2142.4356.22.12190.97
Missing four games apiece in his first two seasons, Jones played a full 16-game slate and delivered for fantasy owners as only Christian McCaffrey scored more fantasy points at the position in 2019. While Jamaal Williams remained involved, Jones racked up 1,558 scrimmage yards and scored a whopping 19 total touchdowns. Instead of drafting help for Aaron Rodgers and the passing offense, the Packers invested a high pick (second-rounder) in a 247-pound running back that will likely steal a few (especially valuable goal-line) carries from Jones.
Jamaal Williams74.6313.31.3127.4208.21.7870.69
Williams has averaged only 4.67 yards per touch over his three-year career. While he played just 35% of Green Bay's offensive snaps last season, Williams finished as a top-36 fantasy running back (flex range) in 2019.
A.J. Dillon80.8351.53.646.443.50.1362.12
Jones finished as fantasy's RB2 last season and is clearly the RB to own in Green Bay. The unexpected use of a second-round pick on Dillon, however, could lead to a bigger role than most would expect although the pick was more likely looking ahead to 2021 as both Jones and Williams are free agents after this season.

WIDE RECEIVERS


PlayerRec.YardsTDRushYardsTDPoints
Davante Adams98.41215.29.35000177.62
Missing four games due to a toe injury, Adams still averaged the sixth-most fantasy points per game as Aaron Rodgers' go-to receiver in 2019. While he scored only five touchdowns in 2019, Adams had double-digit touchdowns in each of the three previous seasons and has a league-high 40 receiving touchdowns over the past four seasons.
Allen Lazard56.4724.74.5100099.53
With Devin Funchess opting out of the 2020 season, it boosts the outlook for Lazard, who finished with 35 catches for 477 yards and three touchdowns in 2019.
Marquez Valdes-Scantling33.7497.12.362.113.70.0465.48
Valdes-Scantling got off to a good start in 2019 with 21/416/2 through the first seven weeks of the season. After that point, however, MVS had a total of 36 yards over the final nine regular-season games with a catch rate of 26.3% (five catches on 19 targets).
Equanimeous St. Brown26.3353.71.9700047.19
Malik Taylor3.341.30.240005.57

TIGHT ENDS


PlayerRec.YardsTDRushYardsTDPoints
Jace Sternberger31.33382.500048.8
Not targeted in the regular season, Sternberger had three catches for 15 yards and a touchdown in two playoff appearances. With Jimmy Graham now in Chicago, last year's 75th-overall pick will have an opportunity to make a much larger impact in 2020. That said, he may start slowly after spending a couple of weeks on the reserve/COVID-19 list this summer.

Green Bay Packers 2019 Fantasy Football Projections

In addition to viewing our 2019 Fantasy Football Projections by position, we will post our preseason projections per team.

Below you will find our 2019 fantasy football projections for the Green Bay Packers.

 

QUARTERBACKS

 

PlayerAtt.Comp.YardsTDINTRushYardsTDPoints
Aaron Rodgers557.4358.14152.630.18.0849.7258.41.69306.32
Since 2008, Rodgers has played at least 15 games in nine of 11 seasons. In those nine full seasons, he has finished no worse than fantasy's QB7 and he has finished as a top-two fantasy quarterback seven times. Assuming good health, he's about as safe as it gets in terms of fantasy quarterbacks.

RUNNING BACKS

 

PlayerAtt.YardsTDRec.YardsTDPoints
Aaron Jones200.9954.39.9437.1278.31.11189.56
Injuries and/or suspensions have cost Jones eight games in his first two seasons (four each). Missing Weeks 1 and 2 and 16 and 17, Jones averaged 5.5 yards per carry on his opportunities in between for a second consecutive season. During that span, he was a top-15 back in both PPR and standard-scoring formats. A solid RB2 entering 2019, Jones has RB1 upside if he can stay on the field for most of the season.
Jamaal Williams109.4443.12.7919.41630.7882.03
Through two NFL seasons, Williams has averaged a pedestrian 3.72 YPC -- nearly two yards per carry less than Jones. As noted earlier, Jones has missed a quarter of a season both years, so there could be an opportunity for Williams to pick up the (workload) void if Jones were to miss time again.

WIDE RECEIVERS

 

PlayerRec.YardsTDRushYardsTDPoints
Davante Adams93.41162.811.21000183.54
Adams set career highs across the board -- 111 catches on 169 targets for 1,386 yards and 13 touchdowns. While it was his first 1,000-yard season, Adams extended his streak of seasons with double-digit touchdowns to three. Over the next several seasons, Adams will be a perennial threat to lead the position in fantasy points as the clear No. 1 wide receiver for Aaron Rodgers.
Geronimo Allison52.6710.14.341.680.0297.97
Typically, the No. 2 wideout in a Rodgers-led offense has plenty of fantasy viability and that was the case for Allison before injuries cut his 2018 short. Allison had 64-plus yards each week through Week 4 with a 19/289/2 line on 29 targets as a top-25 performer (WR28 in PPR) over that span. There is upside compared to his current ADP if he's able to maintain good health.
Marquez Valdes-Scantling44.5640.84.01160.0188.8
Productive as a rookie, Valdes-Scantling saw expanded opportunities due to injuries and finished with 38 catches for 581 yards and a two touchdowns. Among 72 qualifiers, he had the league's third-best separation rate (per PFF). Generating plenty of buzz this offseason, a breakout could be in the cards if MVS enters 2019 as the team's No. 2 receiver behind Adams (and ahead of Allison).
Equanimeous St. Brown26.7387.22.141.260.0152.22
Jake Kumerow11.9155.91.1900022.73

TIGHT ENDS

 

PlayerRec.YardsTDRushYardsTDPoints
Jimmy Graham47.2533.44.4800080.22
The 55 catches, 89 targets and 636 yards weren't the problem; the two touchdowns were. A year removed from double-digit touchdowns, Graham scored just two touchdowns. Aside from an 11-game season (2015), it was the only other time in his career that he finished with less than five scores.
Jace Sternberger25.2307.41.700040.94
A rookie-season fantasy impact is unlikely to be felt, but Sternberger gives Aaron Rodgers and the Packers a long-term solution at the position beyond Graham.
Marcedes Lewis5.259.80.520009.1
