A look at fantasy rankings and how the Chargers players are viewed via ESPN’s Mike Clay I’ve become a big fan of ESPN’s Mike Clay over the last couple years. He has consistently been a fan of the Chargers, in fantasy and in real life, and continually has picked them to not only make the playoffs in ‘17 and ‘18, but to also challenge for a title.
Although the hype he gave the team did not come to fruition last season, the attention he gave to the Chargers’ players in fantasy football was right on the money. In ESPN leagues (PPR scoring), here’s how the the Bolts’ players fared:
Melvin Gordon - RB
284 Carries
1,105 Rushing Yards
8 Rushing Touchdowns
58 Catches on 83 Targets
476 Receiving Yards
4 Receiving Touchdowns
Finished the year as RB5
Keenan Allen - WR
102 Catches on 159 targets
1,393 Receiving Yards
6 Receiving Touchdowns
2 Carries
9 Rushing Yards
Finished the year as WR3
Philip Rivers - QB
Completed 360/575 Passes
4,515 Passing Yards
28 Passing Touchdowns
10 Interceptions
