Only Aaron Rodgers and Drew Brees threw fewer picks among quarterbacks with at least 10 games started. And, as the complete opposite of Winston, Wilson only threw a measly five interceptions. Wilson was his usual efficient self in 2019, throwing for the second-highest yardage total of his career en route to another triple-digit passer rating (106.3). Ultimately, Jackson flew ahead of his challenger, but Wilson nonetheless delivered an excellent fantasy season.

Jameis Winston giveth, Jameis Winston taketh away. Now, imagine what Winston could be if he just slightly reduced his turnovers. Suffice it to say, rostering Winston was akin to having a headache that causes you immense pain but also somehow makes you smarter. Unfortunately, he also threw 30 interceptions (he led the league in pick-sixes with 7, four more than the next quarterback) and he saved a four-pick outing for the fantasy championships in Week 16. In fact, his best game of the season in Week 14 came courtesy of a 461-total-yard, 5 total TD-performance. Winston was a threat to throw for 3-plus touchdowns and over 400 yards in every game. He was also second in passing touchdowns with 33, and he added another 250 yards on the ground.

Winston led the league in passing as the only 5,000-yard quarterback of 2019. Jameis Winston is living proof that sometimes fantasy and reality don’t mirror each other.

We come to the surprise of this list, Mr. Top 5 Wide Receivers: Historic season highlights listģ) Jameis Winston, Tampa Bay Buccaneers - 335.36 fantasy points
JAMEIS WINSTON FANTASY CODE
Top 5 Running Backs: Christian McCaffrey is a cheat code Nonetheless, with an August ADP of 113.4, Prescott delivered an unexpectedly raucous season for his fantasy managers. Unfortunately, thanks to a string of some very tough matchups late in the season, Prescott’s ceiling was rarely seen on a week-to-week basis from Week 12 forward. His best fantasy performance this season actually came in Week 1 (405 passing yards, 4 TDs) a sign of things to come. Not to mention, Prescott was no slouch running the ball either. Prescott was throwing downfield like never before and for a while, he and Amari Cooper were one of the best QB-WR one-two punches in fantasy. Prescott would end up delivering career highs in passing yards (4,902), passing yards per game (306.4), yards per attempt (8.2) and passing touchdowns (30).

Offensive coordinator Kellen Moore and Dak Prescott turned out to be a match made in fantasy football heaven. 2) Dak Prescott, Dallas Cowboys - 348.78 fantasy points Take a bow, Andy Behrens, who predicted Jackson would finish as the top quarterback in fantasy before the season even started. All in all, it was a magical season, made even more incredible by the fact that most people drafted Jackson late (his ADP was 98.4). His best fantasy game of the season came in the fantasy semifinals when he tore the New York Jets apart to the tune of five passing touchdowns, 212 passing yards, and 86 rushing yards. You can’t ask for much more from your QB than that - and he STILL broke the single-season quarterback rushing record with 1,206 yards. He only had one game this season where he scored under 20 fantasy points. You were pretty much automatically set to receive 10-plus points before he even threw a pass - and he led the league in passing touchdowns with 36. Lamar’s floor as a rusher is something we haven’t seen since the Michael Vick days. We’ve hammered away at what Lamar Jackson has done this season already ( and what he could do next season, too) so I’ll keep this brief. So, without further ado, here are the top five fantasy quarterbacks of the 2019 season: 1) Lamar Jackson, Baltimore Ravens - 421.68 fantasy points The story of 2019’s fantasy quarterback play will probably be remembered mostly for Lamar Jackson (and rightly so), but there were a lot of impressive performances from the passers on this list.
