If you drafted Michael Gallup as a rookie, you were admittedly disappointed. However, like everything in fantasy football, context matters. Gallup’s incoming measurables and draft capital were strong but not elite.
His landing spot in 2018 came with some question marks such as:
- A quarterback who failed to eclipse 4,000 passing yards in a season during his career
