Fantasy Football QB Rankings;

quarterback

QB; A productive QB can carry you through the injuries and busts on your squad. Drafting a QB is a delicate science, you need to avoid the run at the position while also securing a safe option, or you could end up with the likes of Brooks or Carr. I recommend taking QBS in the mid to later rounds over the top end. I'd rather get great position talent than QB. But if Carson or Donnie or anyone you feel will produce is slips or is a value on your board, then go for it. Just don't get caught thinking you need to take Daunte in the 4th, you can get Delhomme 30 picks later and build a better squad. Either way be aware of the value of a QB in your league, the drop off after the top 2 is steep, afther that it really isn't that dramatic. So have patience and select carefully.

"If you ask me how many TDs I'm gonna have one more time I'm gonna fuck you with this mic Todd."
Peyton Manning


1. Peyton; #1 with the resume to prove it. With the loss of Edge, Peyton is actually a stronger QB from a fantasy standpoint. The team will look to pass more in the red zone which should lead to 35+ TDs this year. With a major talent downgrade in the backfield, the passing game will be relied on heavily. Expect #1 production from both wide outs and even 8-10 TDs from the TE spot; Dallas Clark/Fletcher. A team can only stay in contention so long, and Peyton may have lost his chance at a ring in a year where he could have hosted Denver at home for the AFC chip. But he fucked that up, Vandernuts didn't exactly help either. I would project Peyton as a mid to late first round talent in fantasy.

2. Carson Palmer; Clearly the top fantasy QB last season, Carson faces major health questions heading into the 06 campaign. His goon surgeon retracted most of these comments about his injury, but they are scary nonetheless; "On a scale of 1 to 3, it was a 4," he said. "It was off the chart. It was pretty badly damaged, shredded is the better term." The Bengal’s offense has upgraded their talent level; the already deep receiving corps added underrated speedster Antonio Chatman. I believe Palmer will be ready to go full force on opening day (he looked sick on Monday night). Palmer is an early to mid third rounder right now, with the potential to be the top guy again.



McNabb looks sharp so far and is ready to prove haters wrong

3. McNabb; #5 faces a major crossroads in his career. His durability, toughness and leadership have all been questioned (mostly by TO). Philly only has so much more time to capitalize on his talent, and they needed to address his support in the skill positions immediately. Donte Stallworth helps as does the emergence of Reggie and Hank in the passing game. I still expect McNabb to produce regardless of his cast, he put up 27 total TDs in 2001 with the worst receivers that god has ever shit out of his epic ass. If you get McNabb in the 4th round you will reap the benefits of his talent, he knows what people are saying and is determined to prove them wrong, again.


"Tom remember that Christian youth group I was telling you about?"

4. Tom Brady; I was considering McNabb at this spot, but the loss of Owens coupled with his recent injury history, I simply couldn’t rationalize ranking him ahead of Brady. Brady will go for 4K yards and is always gonna give you 25-28 TDs. His team needs to draft an impact WR to help Brady out. The loss of Givens is greater than most think; his toughness and breakout ability will be missed. Brady is a solid late third to 4th round pick. With Branch in question consider downgrading Tom in your draft.


5. C-Pep; Daunte was out of my top 5 all summer. I needed to see him play some football (even preseason) to prove that he could physically return to form. Then there is also the factor that he sucked man meat last year when healthy. In Madden 07 they made him play like he’s Akili Smith not one of the most productive QBs of the last 10 years. If you land Daunte with your 5th pick you should reap the rewards. He could return to elite status, yet he could also flounder in recovery.


6. Drew Deadslow; I initially had Drew posted as the #5 QB in fantasy for 06-7. till Daunte proved to be healthy to play. He had flashes of his old self last season and proved that he still has a couple of years left. The Boys need to protect Bledsoe, the most sacked NFC QB of 2005. True, he is slower than corky, but the loss of Larry Allen and the lack of a consistent running game would put most QB's at risk. If healthy and protected, Bledsoe will connect with TO, Glenn and Witten often. He had 23 TDs last season, expect closer to 28, with his interceptions in the mid teens. With all that talent in the passing game it's hard to overlook this old head’s value.




The Rest; don’t be afraid to wait on a QB, there is talent past the top 5-6

Hassleback; he was a top three fantasy QB last year, and should probably be ranked higher here a little. Burleson is a good addition to the offense with Jax having knee issues and Stevens out for the first quarter of the year. Matt gives you steady numbers. Temper your expectations though; 24 and 13 sounds right.

Bulger; When healthy he's a stud, that when healthy. Not often. If he is he could have 26+ TDs and top yardage numbers. Take a good backup too.

Delhomme; with Key and Smith at wide out, Jake should put up 25 TDs easy; it’s just his interceptions that can bother you, but you’ll take it in the 6th round.

Eli Manning; last season proved he has the talent and potential to be great, he gained a true deep threat to bomb to in Moss. His regression worries me last year but his pedigree and skill set could produce great numbers.

Big Ben ; with the loss of goal line beast Bettis, Ben may have to put up 20+ TDs. His passing talent is underrated overall, and he could take over the offense if the running game isn’t as dominant as years past.

Brees; his shoulder has to be a concern (they really only gave him a one year 10 mil deal for a reason), but with a sleeper cast around him (Horn and Duece), a good new coach and this Bush character, he could put up nice numbers. Bush could become his favorite target early.

Warner; His receivers are sick but he just can't stay on the field. I can't understand why they don't have another veteran QB on staff. It's very likely in my opinion that we Leinart early. If I'm wrong then hey, good luck with Warner, that offense is loaded.

Trent Green solid real talent but inconsistent fantasy talent. Has had good seasons, but last year showed that the offense can move without his TDs. Larry is an imposing TD presence and could again zap Green of top starter status. 20 TDs is likely though.

McNair could prove very steady, Rivers should surprise, Plummer is a good backup, but I wouldnt want to star him weekly, same with Byron and Simms. Favre and Kitna are both later round backups to me, with Kitna being a sleeper for good TDs.

It's still worthless for any fantasy value, but I do still click occasionally for the tits

I thought that this would have been helpful this season. All promise and no product. You hyped this site up so much during ESPN mock drafts. Then followed it up with excuses. It is going into week 5 you this site has posted next to nothing. Is this a sports site or a cut and paste Tit shot site? If it weren't for the Tits this site would be totatly worthless. How do you expect to make it as a sports writer if you can't even keep your Blog updated.
