I post my rankings every year prior to the season kickoff due to numerous requests. I also obviously enjoy the strategy discussion. This year I’m creating a separate thread for each position as I’m adding my basic strategy for each of the positions.
Some points to consider when taking a look at these rankings.
a) These are rankings based on where I’d draft players, not projection rankings like what FBG puts out. Most people requesting my rankings want to know the order in which I’d draft players. These rankings are vastly different than my projection rankings as I put an increased emphasis on ppg and playoff schedule.
b) Rankings are based on the WCOFF scoring format, but are not based on the WCOFF playoff format. I put emphasis on weeks 14-16 for playoffs. Basic WCOFF format is PPR, flex RB/WR position, deep roster, H2H.
c) Rankings are for expert/veteran leagues, not guppy leagues
d) Players should be drafted right before their ADP, NOT where I have them ranked. Read this line twice if you don’t get it.
Players to Target: Palmer, Plummer, Bledsoe, Warner, Leftwich
Why: All will have ppg’s that will outperform their ADP
Overall Strategy: Wait on QB while taking RB/WR early unless Palmer slides. Try to land a combination of the above players. Make sure your combo covers playoff weeks 14-16.

26. Collins
27. Leinart - suggested handcuff
28. Carr
29. Griese
30. Schaub
31. Romo - suggested handcuff
32. Garrard - suggested handcuff
Don’t waste valuable roster spots on QBs not on this list.
