It’s never also early to projection where the top fantasy performers should reside for the upcoming fantasy football game draft. ADF is providing our insight to where electrical flow players should live ranked every bit of today. This listing volition of course of written report live modified every bit the offseason continues to motion forward. Projections are based upon 2017 PPR formats.
TOP 25 Fantasy Quarterbacks:
Aaron Rodgers | GB | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 20.45 | Rank 1 Coming off a twelvemonth lost to injury may throw claim that Rodgers shouldn’t reside inwards the top seat for quarterbacks for the 2018 season. While unopen to may argue, ADF isn’t wavering i fight that Aaron volition render as well as regain his shape to the levels we’ve been accustomed too. Once the Packers signed Jimmy Graham to the club, Rodgers immediately rose to a higher identify all for top placement for quarterback rankings. Having a feasible tight halt on this criminal offense volition allow Aaron to live to a greater extent than explosive having a security blanket he tin can trust over the middle. On paper, this Packers criminal offense looks to live something particular inwards 2018 already.
Deshaun Watson | HOU | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 29.27 | Rank 2
Taking the NFL past times tempest was the electrical rookie from Clemson, Deshaun Watson. It’s really like shooting fish in a barrel to brand claim that Watson could live ranked every bit the top quarterback inwards fantasy football game for 2018, but, give away ii isn’t a bad consolation. Believing Watson volition have got no set-backs inwards his recovery as well as could regain his shape from where he left off lastly season; Watson should proceed his progression as well as tear upon the league. With that said, ADF would similar to encounter the Texans address the tight halt seat as well as add together broad receiver depth allowing for to a greater extent than options for this offense. Pieces added inwards the NFL draft volition confirm where Watson should live ranked. His injury does pose every bit a trouble organisation (red flag) as well as shouldn’t live overlooked.
Cam Newton | CAR | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 21.47 | Rank 3
Newton continues to make inwards his swell statistical career as well as should render top halt numbers in i trial once to a greater extent than inwards 2018. Always ranked higher inwards leagues alone because of his swell running ability, nosotros shouldn’t encounter a driblet off but a elevator going into this season. ADF is speculating that Newton volition practise goodness from the Panthers encephalon trust adding talent to this criminal offense inwards the shape of broad receivers as well as running backs. Newton has the back upwards from their spark plug Christian McCaffrey as well as the render of their star tight halt Greg Olsen, but genuinely requires a top flying receiving talent to circular out the core. Either way, Cam volition position upwards large numbers in i trial again.
Kirk Cousins | MIN | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 21.35 | Rank 4
The biggest riser on the quarterback listing is recent top gratuitous agent Kirk Cousins. Placing him every bit the 4th ranked quarterback may experience every bit a stretch for some, but ADF believes that inwards Minnesota he should flourish. Since becoming a starting quarterback inwards the NFL, Cousins hasn’t failed to make nether 4000 passing yards as well as 25 touchdowns alongside around reaching heights of 5000 passing yards as well as xxx touchdowns inwards his fourth dimension inwards Washington. Reviewing the weapons on the Vikings roster, it’s impossible to non acquire excited to the potential powerhouse this criminal offense could become. Building chemical scientific discipline as well as executing the playbook inwards twelvemonth i mightiness pose every bit the greatest feat, but if Case Keenum could position upwards career numbers, exactly recollect what Cousins could do.
Carson Wentz | PHI | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 26.60 | Rank 5
At this betoken Carson Wentz ranks 5th alongside the potential to increment his value every bit he progresses inwards his recovery shape ACL surgery. Having played masterfully lastly flavour earlier he went down, the only laid dorsum to the immature pin which could derail his ranking is when he really volition render to the field. Injuring his genu belatedly inwards the flavour around guarantees he won’t live create to commence the flavour nether center. The Eagles mightiness live the best squad inwards the NFL inwards damage of talent depth on this roster. With Nick Foles remaining every bit the backup it’s non out of the enquiry to encounter Wentz moved along slow missing perchance the foremost quarter of the twelvemonth every bit he continues to rehab. Wentz may observe himself falling downwards the listing every bit the months motion frontward until confirmation of total wellness is obtained.
Tom Brady | NE | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 22.62 | Rank 6
Is this the twelvemonth nosotros encounter the inevitable spend upwards of the swell Tom Brady? It’s incredible to fathom how TB12 has been able to sustain the levels of success twelvemonth later twelvemonth going into his 40’s. As the Patriots human face to retool losses inwards gratuitous agency, they volition acquire dorsum Julian Edelman as well as add together offensive talent via the NFL draft. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 large enquiry grade for the outlook on Brady as well as his ranking is the Rob Gronkowski province of affairs as well as if he indeed intends on retiring from football. While Brady has played without Gronk inwards the lineup earlier as well as was however able to produce, the Patriots volition shape a system that volition live conducive to this criminal offense however beingness a top performer. So long every bit Brady doesn’t hitting the wall as well as commence his spend upwards early on, he volition however give his owners swell numbers.
Jared Goff | LAR | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 21.15 | Rank 7
As the Rams proceed to acquire amend adding talent to the roster, recent breaking intelligence that LA has acquired Brandin Cooks from the Patriots (via trade) could catapult Jared Goff into the top 5 of fantasy drafts. Having progressed fantastically lastly flavour nether rider vehicle McVay, having unopen to other twelvemonth nether his belt alongside the same cast should only improve his numbers for the upcoming season. It’s non out of the enquiry to believe that Goff could flirt alongside per game averages inwards the 23-25 PPG arrive at this year. The Rams are definitely on the rising as well as Goff could observe his way higher on the listing come upwards draft time.
Drew Brees | NWO | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 19.29 | Rank 8
Though Drew Brees looked to have got taken a measuring dorsum inwards 2017, ADF however believes inwards the powerfulness of the hereafter hall of famer. Keys to his success inwards seeing Brees regain his statistics from past times seasons would include; adding depth to the broad receiver as well as tight halt positions. While the running game remains strong as well as should proceed to live the principal focus of the offense, adding a feasible weapon to the receiving marrow to assist Michael Thomas encounter fewer double teams volition allow Brees to distribute the ball to a greater extent than evenly piece seeing his numbers increase. Drew is on the dorsum nine of his career but should acquire you lot through this flavour alongside top x numbers.
Russell Wilson | SEA | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 26.12 | Rank 9
Though this looks to live a shocking rate for Russell Wilson as well as his spectacular 26.12 fantasy points per game (2017), ADF has no alternative at this betoken to identify Wilson inwards the 9th spot. Russell is literally all lonely on this criminal offense every bit the Seahawks have got no existent playmakers to verbalise of alongside exception to Doug Baldwin. Seattle has no creatable running game as well as no secondary broad receiver talent that would brand defenses accept notice. Wilson took this squad on his dorsum lastly flavour every bit he ran for his life behind a subpar offensive line. As the Hawks human face to rebuild this lodge alongside a defense forcefulness that should encounter its portion of allow downs, Wilson could live a swell garbage fourth dimension producer this season. Red flags at this betoken for Russell Wilson beingness a consistent fantasy producer.
Matthew Stafford | DET | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 21.35 | Rank 10 Stafford continues to live overlooked inwards the fantasy Blue Planet but yet produces adept numbers as well as provides adept value for where he could live drafted. ADF is encouraged past times the authorities modify inwards Detroit every bit the Patriot disciple (Matt Patricia) could convey a winning civilization to the fold. With receiver talent however a enough as well as a running dorsum room looking on the ups later signing LeGarrette Blount, the NFL draft should circular out this unit of measurement making Stafford a potential top producer inwards 2018.
Philip Rivers | LAC | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 20.52 | Rank 11
The upside to Old Man River (pun intended) is inwards how the Chargers became a squad to fright every bit the 2017 flavour wore on. With Rivers agreement the offensive organisation as well as the defense forcefulness placing the criminal offense inwards swell positions, ADF fully expects Rivers to pick upwards where he left off. With a solid running game as well as a plethora of talent on the receiving core, the Chargers human face to live a squad that volition practise harm as well as position upwards large numbers. Rivers could live a giant steal inwards fantasy drafts this season.
Dak Prescott | DAL | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 19.42 | Rank 12
ADF is firmly giving Dak Prescott the practise goodness of the incertitude as well as placing him every bit the 12th ranked quarterback every bit of today. This rate could definitely autumn in i trial nosotros empathize the Cowboys invention regarding their star receiver Dez Bryant. While the Dallas criminal offense revolves around Zeke Elliott, it became disturbingly clear when Elliott was forced to the sidelines due to his suspension that Dak couldn’t position the squad on his dorsum as well as make consistently. Prescott does have got talent that allows him to make alongside his legs, but it’s clear he relies on the run game a lilliputian also much. With Zeke dorsum inwards the mix, Dak should live able to make numbers comparable to those of his rookie year. Expect a possible tendency downwards if Bryant is released from the Cowboys.
Ben Roethlisberger | PIT | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 20.98 | Rank 13
While the Steelers however possess unopen to of the greater talent offensively compared to other teams inwards the NFL, Big-Ben should live seen every bit a potential to regress inwards 2018. The ground for this proffer is the changeover to the offensive coordinator from the difference of Todd Haley to the Browns. Learning a novel organisation mightiness accept the Steelers unopen to fourth dimension limiting Ben at the foremost of the season. It’s to a greater extent than than probable they volition right whatsoever shortcomings every bit the twelvemonth rolls on, every bit the amount of talent on the offensive side is far also vast to live affected for the long term. Still would have got a backup invention if Ben is your guy.
Alex Smith | WAS | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 23.28 | Rank 14
Having constitute swell success inwards his lastly flavour inwards Kansas City, Smith constitute himself atop the leaderboards inwards damage of total fantasy points as well as points per game. Moving to Washington to accept over for the departed Kirk Cousins, it’s hard for ADF to envision Smith generating stats to fit his 2017 season. Any quarterback entering a novel organisation volition inevitably accept a measuring dorsum every bit the learning bend as well as edifice of chemical scientific discipline should accept fourth dimension to develop. The manlike mortal monarch of the banking company check downwards should live on display on a squad that supports no high halt receiving talent but a cast of adept supporting pieces at the position.
Jimmy Garoppolo | SF | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 16.92 | Rank 15
Rounding out the top fifteen, ADF makes claim that Jimmy G volition have got a adept to swell foremost flavour every bit the 49ers truthful give away i starter. The concerns facing Jimmy are the lack of superstar talents at the broad receiver seat currently on the San Fran roster. The 49ers did convey speedster Jerick Mckinnon to the mix to assist elevate plays from the backfield inwards damage of having a solid top catching back. The tutelage received from Tom Brady as well as the fantastic functioning from Garoppolo to halt the 2017 flavour screams high potential for the immature pin to brand waves. His value continues to tendency upward as well as should proceed later the NFL draft.
Jamies Winston | TB | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 19.36 | Rank 16
While ADF likes the skillset of the Bucs Jamies Winston, he hasn’t been able to consistently make inwards his fourth dimension inwards the NFL. Being surrounded alongside talent all over this offense, the 2017 flavour was a monster allow downwards thence the middle of the pack ranking for Winston. Jamies could live a swell bench quarterback alongside high potential yet again.
Patrick Mahomes | KC | 2017 Fantasy PPG: N/A | Rank 17
Perhaps i of ADF’s biggest early sleeper candidates going into the 2018 flavour belongs to the immature Patrick Mahomes. Under quarterback educating Guru Andy Reid, nosotros fully human face the Chiefs to create a organisation conducive inwards helping the immature cannon armed thrower succeed inwards his foremost flavour every bit the starter. The weapons surrounding Mahomes as well as the improver of Sammy Watkins to the club, nosotros could encounter fireworks inwards the Kansas City all year. Great value as well as a high riser for ADF!
Andrew Luck | IND | 2017 Fantasy PPG: N/A | Rank 18
ADF has fallen off the Andrew Luck educate as well as would withdraw a multitude of anything encouraging to acquire dorsum on. Speculation has been made that Luck has begun throwing as well as looks to live improving on a daily basis, we’re non convinced. Any quarterback coming off surgical operation to his throwing shoulder removing him for an entire flavour is extremely concerning. Luck is extremely talented but won’t observe his way upwards our board until nosotros encounter the lite at the halt of the tunnel. Huge ruby-red flags on Luck remain.
Matt Ryan | ATL | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 17.13 | Rank 19
Matt Ryan saw unopen to of his worst numbers since his 2010 flavour frustrating his owners greatly lastly year. Ryan has struggled inwards the past times when a novel organisation is implemented much similar nosotros witnessed nether offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian. ADF however holds out organized faith that Ryan volition have got a bounce dorsum flavour inwards twelvemonth ii nether the electrical flow organisation every bit the Falcons however possess top flying talent on that side of the ball. Without enquiry Ryan volition improve on his terrible touchdown charge per unit of measurement provided Sarkisian understands how to exercise the swell Julio Jones. The value on where Matty Ice could live drafted to what levels he volition make is high as well as ADF would definitely accept unopen to other peril on Ryan.
Derek Carr | OAK | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 16.83 | Rank 20
Another quarterback that saw extreme regression from his previous flavour was the Raiders Derek Carr. The wheels completely experience off lastly flavour as well as nosotros firmly believe they volition live position dorsum on nether novel rider vehicle Jon Gruden. Gruden comes from a coaching tree that is swell at exploiting the talents of quarterbacks piece instituting a westward coast mode that may elevate Carr’s progression. The value on Carr sitting on your bench beingness drafted at the twentieth rate for quarterbacks holds swell value as well as upside. We fully human face Derek to improve as well as create off his 2016 flavour leaving 2017 inwards his rear-view.
Tyrod Taylor | CLE | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 16.98 | Rank 21
The motion to Cleveland makes Tyrod Taylor as well as extremely interesting bench quarterback alongside swell matchup potential. While the jury has come upwards dorsum as well as shown what Taylor is really capable of, his province of affairs alongside the Browns volition finally bear witness what type of purpose instrumentalist he tin can be. Playing alongside fantastic talents inwards Jarvis Landry & Josh Gordon, as well as inwards a organisation nether offensive coordinator Todd Haley, it’s non inconceivable to encounter the long ball used alongside regularity this season. Tyrod should have got always chance to brand plays alongside his legs every bit opposing defenses volition have got to honour the deep ball leaving fewer stacked boxes.
Marcus Mariota | TEN | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 15.90 | Rank 22
ADF didn’t sing the praises of Mariota going into lastly flavour as well as in i trial to a greater extent than won’t give a gleaming endorsement. Marcus volition in i trial to a greater extent than live forced to acquire unopen to other organisation alongside adept but express talent depth around him making it hard to envision much of whatsoever swell improvement inwards 2018. With that said, ADF does honey the skillset as well as the potential of Mariota, but can’t observe ground to have got him ranked higher.
Blake Bortles | JAX | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 18.23 | Rank 23
While the Jags have got an abundance of talent on the offensive side of the ball, Bortles however screams game managing director alongside lilliputian upside from what nosotros saw inwards 2017. The criminal offense volition in i trial to a greater extent than favor the run game leaving opportunities for Blake to make off play action. We’re however non able to endorse Bortles inwards fantasy football game as well as he would best serve every bit a matchup purpose instrumentalist at most.
Mitchell Trubisky | CHI | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 16.79 | Rank 24
With a novel caput rider vehicle to run the exhibit inwards Chicago as well as signing a surplus of talent to assist their immature pin progress as well as potentially excel, ADF is somewhat smitten alongside what Trubisky could really be. He has adept talent as well as showed signs of improvement lastly flavour placing him inwards a theatre conversation every bit a bench stash quarterback alongside hopes of much improved production. Mitchell could easily observe himself inwards the 20 PPG give-and-take inwards 2018.
Case Keenum | DEN | 2017 Fantasy PPG: 18.79 | Rank 25
Case Keenum finds himself inwards the top 20 5 exactly because he volition commence the twelvemonth every bit the Broncos starting quarterback. ADF isn’t convinced that Case tin can replicate his success from lastly flavour every bit the Vikings organisation as well as talent lifted him to human face amend than he really is. Still have got to give him unopen to honour every bit he could render unopen to adept matchup play appeal.
