1. Drew Brees: Brees was simply the best quarterback in the NFL last year, and he's a superstar. Especially when it comes to fantasy leagues. Brees had a handful of monster games last season, and it's safe to say that this season should be no different. Bonus points when you factor in Colston's return.
2. Tom Brady - QB - New England Patriots: 7/11, 72 Yards, 0 TD's, 0 INT's, 0 300 YD Games: Tom Brady missed almost all of last season. As you can see by his numbers. But in Brady's last full season he was absolutely unstoppable. He threw for 50 touchdowns. With a receiving core that has only gotten better, Brady will once again have another dominate year.
3. Peyton Manning - QB - Indianapolis Colts: 371/555, 4,002 Yards, 27 TD's, 12 INT's, 4 300 YD Games: Peyton Manning has always been a very consistent QB and also a very consistent Fantasy QB. Manning will once again have another Peyton type year including: 4,000 Yards and 25+ TD's. He is the easy choice for the number 3 QB.
4. Aaron Rodgers - QB - Green Bay Packers: 341/546, 4,038 Yards, 28 TD's, 13 INT's, 4 300 YD Games: Rodgers had a very impressive first year in 2008. He had more Yards, TD's, and less throws than Peyton Manning. Rodgers also had 4 Rushing Touchdowns, which is really impressive for a QB. He was one of the only Quarterbacks to rush for 200 yards. Rodgers returns his to favorite targets in Greg Jennings and Donald Driver. Also the Packers running game should be much more effective than last year.
5. Philip Rivers: With a dangerous arsenal of talented receivers and great running backs, the San Diego Chargers offense is a well oiled machine. Rivers is an extremely talented quarterback and should lead his team to some big victories.
6. Kurt Warner. Who knew the old man still had it? What an amazing 2008 it was for Warner. He has the best two receivers in football by his side, and they do some amazing things - partly because they have such a talented quarterback throwing them the ball. Still, he's a risk to get injured at his age.
7. Tony Romo: So he may choke in the playoffs, but who really cares? It's all about the regular season, and Romo knows how to light up a football field. He's lost Terrell Owens, but who knows, maybe it's for the better. Roy Williams, Miles Austin, and Jason Witten will do their best to fill the gaps for Romo, who'd otherwise be ranked top 3 with the presence of Owens.
8. Jay Cutler. Talk about a QB who loves to pass the ball. Cutler looked solid in Denver last season, and finds a new home in Chicago. The biggest concern is the fact that his receivers this season are less talented than they were in Denver. Time will tell if this makes a difference.
