Fighting Chance Fantasy's 2008 Quarterback Rankings
I can’t believe football season is almost here already. I can’t wait! Leagues are already forming, and we’ve got all the positional rankings you’ll need to make great decisions in your draft. This list covers the top 30 QB’s going into 2008. Complete with last year’s numbers. Stay tuned for rankings for RB, WR and TE. Here is the list…
Elite Options
Tom Brady, New England Patriots
398-578 4,807 yards, 50 TDs, 8 INT, eight 300 yard games, 2 Rushing TDs
Brady had a season for the ages last year, as he broke the single season touchdown record as he threw 50 on the season. The only player to really depart the machine that was the New England offense was Donte Stallworth, and he wasn’t really used all that much anyway. The Pats still have Randy Moss, they still have Wes Welker, Jabar Gaffney started coming on at the end of the year, and second year player Chad Jackson could be a sleeper in 2008. With all of those weapons many teams forget about Kevin Faulk, but Brady never does. He has an embarrassment of riches on the offensive side of the ball, and although you definitely shouldn’t expect a repeat of last year’s numbers, He still should be the number one quarterback on draft day, but I wouldn’t take him before near the end of the first round.
Peyton Manning, Indianapolis Colts
337-515 4,040 yards, 31 TDs, 14 INT, three 300 yard games, 3 Rushing TDs
Even without the services of Marvin Harrison for much of the season, Manning had another vintage Peyton season. I was expecting a bit of a step back after it seemed that he spent every second of the offseason filming commercials, but you just can’t go wrong when you have the talent and preparation that Manning puts into the game. Figuring that Harrison is healthy, and that pesky gun incident goes away, Peyton has three quality receivers with Marvin, Reggie “now an elite receiver” Wayne, and soon to be much more popular in fantasy Anthony Gonzalez. Just like Brady, Peyton is either a late first round, or early second round selection.
Tony Romo, Dallas Cowboys
335-520 4,211 yards, 36 TDs, 19 INT, seven 300 yard games, 2 Rushing TDs
Anyone who drafts Romo will undoubtedly hope that Jessica Simpson stays away from Cowboy games in 2008. Even though he has had serious troubles in the playoffs the past two seasons, fantasy football doesn’t go into the NFL playoffs, so you don’t have to worry about that. Romo took a big step forward from his first full season to his second,
