Fantasy Football QB Draft Rankings

Ranking Quarterbacks this year might be one of the hardest things to do. In all honesty, I can see at least 20 QB’s that could end up in the top 10. It might really come down to which QB’s play in all 16 games. Miss one game this year and you might fall outside the top 10. The moral of the story is that because QB’s are so deep unless you get one of the top 4 for a steal, I might not bother with a QB until like the 9th or 10th round.

1Cam NewtonQBCAR7Even if he regresses he could easily still be number 1
2Andrew LuckQBIND10My pick for comeback player of the year.
3Aaron RodgersQBGB4Healthy weapons should mean a better year.
4Ben RoethlisbergerQBPIT8Can Brown get 200 receptions if Ben plays all 16.
5Russell WilsonQBSEA5Better NFL QB than Fantasy QB. 34 TD's might be hard to repeat.
6Eli ManningQBNYG8He might throw more this year than any other, and he might have his best weapons this year.
7Blake BortlesQBJAC5High powered offense from top to bottom.
8Drew BreesQBNO5Never count this guy out.
9Carson PalmerQBARI9Tons of weapons equals tons of points.
10Derek CarrQBOAK10Things are coming together for this team and Carr is leading the way.
11Matt StaffordQBDET10Marvin Jones is no Megatron, but Matt can flat out throw the ball.
12Andy DaltonQBCIN9This man gets no respect. He was top 5 before injury last season.
13Philip RiversQBSD11Just like Stafford this guy can flat out throw too.
14Ryan TannehillQBMIA8If Parker lives up to hype he might have the top WR duo.
15Kirk CousinsQBWAS9Truth be told I never really like that.
16Tyrod TaylorQBBUF10Run first team and star receiver struggles to stay healthy
17Tom BradyQBNE9This low only because everyone has a 4 game head start on him
18Jameis WinstonQBTB6Made progress as last season progressed, but needs Evans to catch the ball.
19Marcus MariotaQBTEN13The team is better, but he can he stay healthy for 16?
20Robert GriffinQBCLE13Browns will be behind often forcing a ton a passes and the deep ball is his best.
21Matt RyanQBATL11Red zone turnovers and really tough schedule will hurt him.
22Ryan FitzpatrickQBNYJ11Don be fooled by 2 top 15 WR, they were just about the only 2 he threw to.
23Tony RomoQBDAL7I have no faith he can play 6 games.
24Jay CutlerQBCHI9If White and Jeffery both play all year, this could be a very bad ranking for me.
25Teddy BridgewaterQBMIN6I think he is trending up, but he will always be limited as long as AP is there.
26Joe FlaccoQBBAL8Before his injury he was pressing and making bad decisions. If he stops that he could move up a lot.
27Alex SmithQBKC5Super reliable, problem is the reliable number from him is not very high.
28Brock OsweilerQBHOU9Has a lot to prove before I move him up.
29Jared GoffQBLA8I just don't think he will be asked to do much this year.
30Sam BradfordQBPHI4Every mistake Philly fans thinks he makes they will call for Wentz.
31Blain GabbertQBSF8I actually like Gabbert a lot, but who is he going to throw to?
32Mark SanchezQBDEN11I think Sanchez is Denver's best chance at winning, but with that D and their running game, they might not need a QB.
33Trevor SiemianQBDEN11
34Paxton LynchQBDEN11
35Colin KaepernickQBSF8
36Nick FolesQBKC5
37Carson WentzQBPHI4
38Josh McCownQBCLE13
39Case KeenumQBLA8
40Geno SmithQBNYJ11

The Professor

I have been playing fantasy football since 1991. My first draft I had the first pick and the first player I ever drafted was Randall Cunningham. I remember that because he broke his leg in the first half of the season. Since then I have been hooked on fantasy football and I have not and will not ever draft a QB in the first round again.
