However, those games were against teams that went a combined 30-55, three of which were among the worst pass defenses in the league. Fantasy drafters should consider Shough as a mid-QB2 with the potential to deliver low-end QB1 value, at least when he's facing lower-tier passing defenses. But a significant step forward isn't required for the Saints' offense to improve, and an improved offense might rely on Shough less rather than more, capping his potential value.
