Goff's 21.2 PPG and favorable schedule make him a strong trade target for QB2 managers.

Goff is scoring 21.2 fantasy PPG despite very limited rushing totals (15 yards) because he's one of the league's best pocket throwers with a 70.6% completion rate and at least two touchdown passes in all three games. He's a rhythm passer in an offense scoring 31.0 PPG (third most), and the Detroit defense is allowing a league-worst 31.7 PPG, which can lead to more shootouts. The source recommends targeting Goff in trades from managers in 10- or 12-team leagues who drafted him as QB2, noting his upcoming schedule (@CAR, @ARI, BYE, GB) looks really good and he can be used as a matchup-based starter capable of 16-18 points per week.
