Scouting report

LA QB Jared Goff - Week 11, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 vs. Miami
Rookie Jared Goff will get his first NFL start on Sunday when the Rams host the Dolphins. He'll play behind a suspect offensive line with no running game or legitimate No. 1 receiver to lean on in the passing game. Twenty-eight quarterbacks are fantasy eligible in Week 11, and we have him ranked at No. 28. In other words, avoid him.

LA QB Jared Goff - Week 9, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs. Carolina
Rookie quarterback Jared Goff reportedly received more reps during the Rams' bye week and could be getting closer to making his first start. Case Keenum was a disaster in London when the Rams lost to the Giants, throwing four interceptions despite his defense keeping the team in the game. At some point the Rams need to find out what they have in Goff, who has yet to take a NFL snap. We have Goff ranked as our QB27 for Week 9, but both he and Keenum should be avoided in fantasy.

LA QB Jared Goff - 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
We'd be exaggerating to suggest that Jared Goff has upside this year in fantasy. Despite the Rams giving up four picks this year and two next year in order to move up to the No. 1 pick in April's draft to acquire Goff, he has yet to beat out Case Keenum for the starting job. Goff should start at some point, but if or when he does, he'll be one of the least attractive fantasy quarterback options available.

Fantasy Downside
As previously mentioned, Goff has yet to beat out Keenum for the No. 1 job in L.A. If he does start, he'll do a lot of handing the ball off to Todd Gurley in the Rams' run-heavy offense. Outside of Tavon Austin (who is more of a gadget player than a bona fide No. 1 receiver), the Rams don't have any weapons in the passing game, either.

2016 Bottom Line
Ranked as our QB30, avoid Goff in your drafts. There's not much sense in picking him up as a streaming option either, as the Rams won't put the ball in the air much this season and he doesn't have many weapons in the passing game.
