High-level fantasy production in both 2017 and 2018 led to Jared Goff having some hype as a potential top five fantasy QB in 2019, but it just didn't fall that way for a variety of reasons. Many will argue that the Rams' offense coached by Sean McVay has been "figured out" by NFL defenses and while that certainly may be contributing to the steep scoring decline that the team saw from 2018 to 2019, it should also be noted that the team was banged up and the offensive line continues to crumble in front of Goff. Still, some of the blame for the Rams scoring 133 fewer points in 2019 than they did in 2018 has to fall on Goff himself and the sudden spike up to 16 interceptions that he threw.
On a positive note, Goff did lead the entire NFL with 626 pass attempts in 2019 and he was able to salvage a top-12 fantasy QB season on sheer volume alone as he eclipsed 4,600 passing yards for the second straight season. While we shouldn't project him to throw the ball that much again this season, the Rams offense will likely still be built on a high play per minute ratio, which should lead to Goff again being near the top of the league in pass attempts. He will, however, be without Brandin Cooks and the team really did not bring in any sort of significant replacement for him, so don't look for the offense to be constructed the same way that it was in McVay's first few seasons with the Rams. We saw in 2019 some of what we should be expecting this season with fewer downfield pass attempts and more underneath throws to possession receivers and tight ends.
Goff lacks the rushing credentials to be a truly elite fantasy quarterback in today's game, but he's currently being selected outside the top 20 quarterbacks in many drafts. There's very little chance that he finishes below his ADP right now which should make him an ideal target as an ideal later-round QB2 in two-QB or superflex formats.

Lions ship Matthew Stafford to the Rams Lions Get Goff and two first-round picks By: Mike Krueger | Sat Jan 30, 11:30 pm

| | More on the first - but not the last - major QB moves of 2021: Matthew Stafford to the Rams in exchange for Jared Goff, a 2021 third-round pick, and 2022 and 2023 first-round picks: (Adam Schefter on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: Our first big move of the off-season is a blockbuster. The price seems steep for the 32 year-old quarterback but getting rid of Goff's contract was going to come at a high price. The Lions are in a rebuilding mode and this move doesn't bode well for the fantasy prospects of Kenny Golladay. However, Cooper Kupp, Robert Woods and Cam Akers will be valuable targets in 2021 redraft leagues.

| John Wolford ruled out, Jared Goff to start Thumb injury for Goff By: Mike Krueger | Thu Jan 14, 2:40 pm

| | Rams QB John Wolford has been ruled out for Saturday, per Sean McVay, but will still travel with the team. So Jared Goff will start against Green Bay, backed up by Blake Bortles. (Jourdan Rodrigue on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: Wolford suffered a neck injury in the Rams wildcard game against the Seahawks. Goff (thumb) is most definitely going to be less than 100 percent against the Packers but could a serviceable fantasy QB if the Rams get behind early.

| Rams optimistic Cooper Kupp will play Bursitis in his knee By: Mike Krueger | Mon Jan 11, 7:00 am

| | Defensive tackle Aaron Donald has a rib injury, wide receiver Cooper Kupp has bursitis in his knee, quarterback John Wolford has a stinger and quarterback Jared Goff is continuing to recover from thumb surgery that he underwent on Dec. 28. Rams coach Sean McVay expressed optimism Sunday evening that Donald and Kupp can return for next Saturday's contest, but the quarterback situation remains unclear. (ESPN)
FFToday's Take: McVay isn't likely to name a starting quarterback anytime soon but the smart money is on Goff getting the start after he stepped in for the injured Wolford in the first quarter of the Rams Wildcard game against the Seahawks. McVay did acknowledge that Goff's thumb injury did hamper the QBs play. Kupp will likely be limited in practice this week but should suit up.

| Cooper Kupp expected to practice Wednesday COVID-19 list By: Mike Krueger | Tue Jan 5, 6:11 pm

| | Sean McVay confirms both would be back this week, with Cooper Kupp returning tomorrow. Brockers can come back a little later in the week provided both continue to be asymptomatic. (Jourdan Rodrigue on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: Kupp missed Week 17 after being placed on the COVID-19 list. It's still unclear who the Rams quarterback will be this week against the Seahawks. Jared Goff (thumb) is expected to get some practice time in this week. John Wolford had a mediocre showing in Week 17 (22-38, 231-0-1; 6-56) against the Cardinals.

| Christian Kirk lands on COVID-19 list Arizona limping into Week 17 By: Mike Krueger | Sat Jan 2, 11:30 pm

| | We have placed WR Christian Kirk on the Reserve/COVID-19 list. (Arizona Cardinals on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: With Kirk down, Kyler Murray nursing a leg injury and Chase Edmonds battling a hip issue the Cardinals will be at less than 100 percent when the face the Rams in Week 17. Edmonds is a gametime decision but their is optimism he will play. The Rams will be without Cooper Kupp and Jared Goff.

| Cooper Kupp out for Week 17 COVID-19 list By: Mike Krueger | Wed Dec 30, 11:40 am

| | #Rams WR Cooper Kupp was placed on the COVID-19 reserve list because of a positive test and he’s out for Sunday, source said. So, no Jared Goff and no Cooper Kupp vs. the #AZCardinals. (Ian Rapoport on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: The Rams still need a win to clinch a playoff birth but will now be down Jared Goff, Darrell Henderson and Cooper Kupp. John Wolford will be starting at QB and will have Robert Woods and Josh Reynolds as his main weapons outside. Malcolm Brown should see the bulk of the work at running back unless Cam Akers is able to make a return from his sprained ankle.

| Jared Goff undergoes thumb surgery Unlikely to play Week 17 By: Doug Orth | Mon Dec 28, 7:25 pm

| | Rams’ QB Jared Goff underwent surgery today on his broken right thumb in LA and is unlikely to play Sunday vs. Arizona, sources tell ESPN. If he can’t play Sunday, Goff could return for the playoffs if Rams advance there. John Wolford is Goff’s backup and now in line to start. (ESPN - Adam Schefter)
FFToday's Take: Goff hasn't struggled for long stretches of this season, so it's hard to imagine he'd be overly effective in the off chance he plays in Week 17. Even if he is cleared in time for a potential playoff - which is not a given for the Rams - it's hard to be overly excited about Cooper Kupp or Robert Woods either. Wolford enjoyed success in the AAF last year but obviously needs to be viewed as a downgrade until he proves otherwise.

| Jared Goff's status uncertain for Week 17 Surgery on broken thumb likely at some point By: Mike Krueger | Mon Dec 28, 9:54 am

| | From @GMFB: The status of #Rams QB Jared Goff is in doubt because of a broken and dislocated thumb... but he's still hoping to play. (Ian Rapoport on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: Goff played through a broken thumb during the 4th quarter of the Rams' loss to Seattle. If he can't go this week we could get a start from backup John Wolford who has yet to appear in an NFL game.
