Jordan Love

Love completed his first full season as the Packer's starter and surpassed every expectation that I had for him. Love was the QB5 in fantasy points per game, ranking seventh in passing yards and second in passing touchdowns. After he had somewhat of a slow start to the season, Love caught fire after Week 9. For the rest of the season among 36 qualifying quarterbacks, he was fourth in passer rating and CPOE and sixth in fantasy points per dropback. During that stretch, he was also sixth in clean pocket passer rating. Love is a wonderful value in drafts if you want to wait on quarterback some and still have access to top 3-5 upside at the position.

Jordan Love completed 24 of 33 passes for 256 yards, three touchdowns, and zero turnovers, and zero sacks during the Packers' 33-10 win over the Vikings in Week 17. He also added two rushing yards and one rushing touchdown.

Fantasy Impact

Love's four total touchdowns, zero turnovers, and zero sacks were much appreciated by managers in the fantasy football championship. While some of the credit for his big game can be attributed to a favorable matchup, there's no ignoring that Love has put together a very solid season. He's worth considering as a low-end QB1 for Week 18.
