As our Fantasy Football Drafts are rapidly approaching, I thought I’d share my lists of top 10 players for the upcoming season. This list will change, slightly, as rosters are finalized by the end of the pre-season.
| QB Drew Brees Peyton Manning Tom Brady Kurt Warner Tony Romo Phillip Rivers Carson Palmer Aaron Rogers Matt Schaub Matt Ryan |
RB Adrian Peterson Matt Forte Michael Turner Chris Johnson Steven Jackson Maurice Jones-Drew Deangelo Williams Ladainian Tomlinson Frank Gore Steve Slaton |
WR Larry Fitzgerald Andre Johnson Randy Moss Calvin Johnson Reggie Wayne Roddy White Steve Smith Anquan Boldin Greg Jennings Roy E. Williams |
| TE Jason Witten Dallas Clark Antonio Gates Tony Gonzalez Chris Cooley Kellen Winslow Greg Olsen John Carlson Owen Daniels Tony Scheffler |
K Stephen Gostkowski Rob Bironas Mason Crosby Neil Rackers Nick Folk Jason Elam Robbie Gould Adam Vinatieri Garrett Hartley Ryan Longwell |
DST Steelers Vikings Ravens Giants Titans Jets Eagles Cowboys Patriots Dolphins |
For rookie Fantasy teams, it’s a good idea to look at the experts’ views on where players are projected to be drafted, then make your own educated guess on where your final ranking should be for your league’s draft.
If you are using NFL.com’s free Fantasy Football league, (very popular and easy to use) you can look at where the default rankings are and move them around to your liking. This feature is located on your team page in the upper right hand corner where it says “Don’t forget to rank your players”. Once you click on this, the default is the Expert’s Rankings. It also gives you the option to rank players according to position or in a single list.
You can also practice your drafting techniques by joining mock Fantasy Drafts. My favorite is located on CBS Sports where it will store your drafts so you can study them later when you might have more time for analysis.
If all of this is just mumbo-jumbo, but you don’t want to be left out of the fun, here is a great link that explains the basics of Fantasy Football and should give you the confidence you need to enter the exciting world of Fantasy Football:

glad to see so many fantasy football freaks on here…lol…cmon you guys….good Lord…
Football fans are hiding me thinks!

Great job!
thanks kelly.:)
Hey Ninja: Not a bad start up list, but if you really want to help the people new to Fantasy Football you need to come up with at least a top 250 list. The list above will only help for about 3 rnds at the most since kickers and Def’s should never be picked before rnds 15,16 etc. by the 2nd rnd every RB you listed will be long gone…and they won’t have a clue who to pick. Sorry really don’t mean to sound pushy or bitchy just trying to help since I have played for 20 years And Love it. LOL
Go Cowboys…
