WooHoo!! Football time is here and that means so is Fantasy Football! Lets start off with (As long as these guys make it out of the preseason healthy) they will be the Top 5 QB's to Draft in the 1st Round:
As you will see I have taken Cam Newton out of my top 5! I am feeling he will have the 2nd year slumps.
1) Tom Brady (NE) - Indeed he is getting older and certainly you can't train an old dog new tricks, but who needs to learn new tricks when the coach and owner keep buying you new toys to play with. The new additions to offense and the returning stud TE's make Tom (if I do dare to speak of him on a first name basis) the happiest old dog on the block and primed to be the top passer this year!
2) Aaron Rodgers (GB) - A disappointing loss last year has Aaron strapped in to the driver seat and ready to make some noise. Some of the defenses around the league may know how to stop him, but I still think the pathetic run game will keep Aaron in the top 5 for passing this year.
3) Drew Brees (NO) - Sure he is missing his head coach, but he still has some big time players on offense and with so many defensive players departures he will be on the field more and that means more passing from 6 foot pocket passer. His ability to through TD's and keep the INT's to a minimum will make him a Fantasy Saint!!
4) Matthew Stafford (DET) - Yes, I say Matthew Stafford should be a late 1st round pick for most leagues. He tossed 41 TD's last year and had over 5,000 yards through the air. He is young, has a if not the top WR in the game and again another team with a bad run game means he will throw the ball "A LOT!!!"
5) Peyton Manning (DEN) - Too much success in prior years to leave him out of the Top 5. He has a young team and two well respected TE's. I suspect Peyton will struggle, but his production will be a solid 35 TD's 13 INT's and 4125 yards passing. Although, these number seem inflated for a guy who has not played a regular season game in 16+ months, I do not think the Denver run game will be as great as it was last year; implying he will have to throw the ball.
Tomorrow checkout our top 5 RB's for this year!!ss
