Free Fantasy Football Player Rankings QB

Drafting a Quarterback can play a crucial role on the success of your fantasy football team. Perhaps even more importantly, where you draft him can make or break your fantasy football draft.

Once the top tier quarterbacks such as: Rodgers, Brees, Manning, and Brady have been taken, you may be much better off drafting another Wide Receiver or Running Back. There is little difference in value between the next tier of quarterbacks, so save your draft pick and create the foundation of your fantasy football lineup.

Rank #	QUARTERBACKS RUNNING BACKS WIDE RECIEVERS TIGHT ENDS KICKERS
1	Aaron Rodgers Green Bay Packers
	This silent fantasy stud of 2009, is no longer flying under the rader. The young Favre mentee has arrived on the superstar scene.
2	Michael Vick Philadelphia Eagles
	Vick has shown that he has gotten his quickness back, however he had ball control issues in preseason, with most drives leading to turnovers. Vick will get his first NFL start since his prison release in week 2.
3	Tom Brady New England Patriots
	Its hard to go wrong with Tom Brady. There are concerns that the Patriots have begun to lose their sparkle. Brady has gone as late as the 3rd round in mock drafts. Seems crazy that he gets out of the second round.
4	Drew Brees New Orleans Saints
	Hot from the Superbowl victory, Drew remains a fantasy football favorite. Many sources list him over Rodgers, but I think a hangovers coming to New Orleans.
5	Peyton Manning Indianapolis Colts
	Due to complications with the multiple neck surgeries, Peyton will miss the large majority of the 2011 NFL season.
6	Philip Rivers San Diego Chargers
	His best reciever has a suspension hanging over his head, this may impact Rivers' production. Still, he is ranked 6 on our QB list.
7	Tony Romo Dallas Cowboys
	He has a great new weapon at reciever and Jessica seems to be at a safe distance, good forth round QB.
8	Ben Roethlisberger Pittsburgh Steelers

9	Matt Ryan Atlanta Falcons

10	Matt Schaub Houston Texans
	The guy throws to Andre Johnson, the number one receiver in the league. You can't go wrong.
11	Josh Freeman Tampa Bay Buccaneers
	Josh Freeman is a big fan of his reciever Mike Williams. I expect they hook up even more this season, now that they have developed chemistry.
12	Joe Flacco Baltimore Ravens
	Although I usually consider Baltimore a running team, Joe really brought some offense to the team. He is quickly become a reliable QB option.
13	Matthew Stafford Detroit Lions
	Had some injury issues last year, but showed promise.
14	Eli Manning New York Giants
	He is no Peyton, but still a good Fantasy quarterback option. Drafting Eli will free up an earlier draft pick, which you should use to grab a solid WR or RB.
15	Sam Bradford St. Louis Rams

16	Jay Cutler Chicago Bears

17	Matt Cassel Kansas City Chiefs
	Still playing in the shadows of his New England days.
18	Kevin Kolb Arizona Cardinals
	Now with Arizona, Kevin has a chance to prove himself.
19	Mark Sanchez New York Jets
	The Jets appear serious about introducing a spark to the passing attack. Sanchez has a lot of new weapons.
20	Donovan Mcnabb Minnesota Vikings
	McNabb follows Legend Brett Favre in trying to take the Vikings to the next level.
21	Kyle Orton Denver Broncos
	Kyle will be looking over his shoulder all season, the Fans are behind Tebow, but Orton is the clear starter.
22	David Garrard Jacksonville Jaguars
	His play book consists of handing off to MJD to the left, right, and up the middle. Not a huge ROI from a fantasy football perspective, but an average bye week replacement if you need one.
23	Ryan Fitzpatrick Buffalo Bills

24	Chad Henne Miami Dolphins
	This guy has a cannon for an arm.
25	Alex Smith San Francisco 49ers
	We expect the 49ers to take the next step into the playoffs this season.
26	Jason Cambell Oakland Raiders
	Now on Oakland, he will experience many of the same problems he faced in Washington. He will need better protection and will have to learn to throw the ball away if he is under attack.
27	Matt Hasselbeck Tennessee Titans

28	Tarvaris Jackson Seattle Seahawks

29	Vince Young Philadelphia Eagles

30	Colt McCoy Cleveland Browns

100	Cam Newton Carolina Panthers

100	Kerry Collins Indianapolis Colts
	It will be a tall order filling the shoes of Peyton Manning. Kerry Collins will try to keep the Colts franchise alive.
