Plenty of folks,after seeing consecutive years where a second-year starting QB exploded to win MVP, are drafting Murray as the most likely option to continue that trend after Mahomes and Jackson in 2020.Murray comes with significant risks, though, including Arizonas below-average projected win total, the uneven performance of similar teams with highly drafted second-year QBs, and some historical inconsistency from players similar to him. Our 2020 projections are more sanguine about Murray's likely performance this season.Remember that just one year agowhen Lamar Jackson burst on the scene, the fantasy community was drafting the previous years first overall pick, Baker Mayfield, in the top five at the QB position.These projections are for four-point pa sing TD leagues.RankPlayerByePa sYdsPa sTDsINTsRushYdsRushTDsFan.Points1Patrick Mahomes10455235.09.12692.0342.82Lamar Jackson8336126.210.78685.5339.93Ru sell Wilson6399329.510.13492.9309.94Dak Prescott10431227.611.92423.6304.95Deshaun Watson8384124.411.53914.3296.96Matt Ryan10453827.412.21431.3290.67Josh Allen11348021.011.85375.0283.38Kyler Murray8389121.612.44213.1277.99Carson Wentz9415426.310.81731.3274.910Tom Brady13429326.211.3281.5265.72020 Fantasy Football Stat Projections: RBIts very important to pay attention to your scoring system when drafting all players, but especially running backs. Alvin Kamara is an extreme example of this. Kamara is seventh in our standard RB rankings based on his projections, but he is because of his projected catches.Derrick Henry, a pounding back who does not catch many pa ses, is the opposite of Kamara. Hes our third-highest scoring back in leagues that do not use receptions Willians Astudillo Jersey , but moves down the board in PPR leagues. So, you will want to fully account for your league scoring when considering who to draft in the first round after the first couple of picks are off the board.These projections are for standard, non-PPR leagues.

There are several reasons we're more bullish on Ridley than the general consensus, where he is being drafted in the teens at the WR position.First, theFalcons again project as a high-volume pa sing team in 2020. In fact, our projections have Atlanta as the top team in pa s attempts and second only to Kansas City in pa sing yards.Second, Ridley (a former first-round pick) has already been productive and is entering year three of his career. Quite a few similar players have broken out with bigger performances at the same stage, and Ridley has the opportunity to do the same on a team likely to be among the pa sing yard leaders.These projections are for standard, non-PPR leagues.

Travis Kelce and George Kittle lead our projections, followed by Mark Andrews and Zach Ertz.After that, things are more wide open. Very few projected fantasy points separate the tight ends we rank between sixth and 15th, and the order can change depending on the scoring format. Robbie Grossman Jersey T.J. Hockenson is relatively high in our projections. Thats dri
