Cam Newton Fantasy Football Rankings, 2019 Projections, Analysis, More

Targeting quarterbacks who are recovering from offseason shoulder surgery isn't usually recommended, despite Andrew Luck's success in 2018. Still, Newton's ability to heavily influence games on the ground, combined with a plethora of playmakers capable of thriving in Carolina's quick-hitting passing game, could make him a huge fantasy football bargain.

Plus, his ridiculous rushing ability will always be an issue for defenses, and he's a problem that's nearly impossible to solve when he's also at his best as a passer. — Ian Hartitz
