Roethlisberger iffy in third preseason game versus Eagles

by Eric McQuillen | Thu, Aug 21st 11:37pm EDT

Roethlisberger went 15 of 24 passing for 157 yards with one touchdown and one interception. The first-team offense clearly wasn't clicking as a whole. Roethlisberger had a few missed passes coupled with some poor routes by the receivers. His lone score was thrown to Heath Miller. (Yahoo)

Fantasy Impact:

It's just a preseason game so there is not much to worry about. This year is a year to wait on QBs in fantasy drafts, especially if/when the elite guys are gone and Roethlisberger offers a lot of upside because he can be had at a very good value. He is currently rated as the the 107th best player overall and the 16th best QB in fantasypros.com ECR (Expert Consensus Rankings) despite finishing last season ninth in yards passing and seventh in passing touchdowns. Expect even more this year with a deeper set of weapons at his fingertips.
