Those are all first tier in my book. Any one of the guys listed above could finish the year number 1. I'd put Rivers at the bottom of that tier, but I think he's first tier.

It seems like Rivers is going to be a steal this year. I don't think the drop off without VJ is going to be as big as people are expecting. Last year the Chargers ranked 31st in the run. Obviously no one was going to respect them beating them with the run so they were game planning to defend the pass and he still did really well. This year with a legit RB threat defenses won't be so lucky.I'm very concerned about this. I'm in a 6pt per TD, QB heavy scoring league and I originally was going to take Romo in the 2nd round. If the pass protection doesn't get better in the next two preseason games I may have to reconsider.
Just reported on Rotoworld...Cowboys LG Kyle Kosier is expected to miss 4-6 weeks with a sprained MCL.
Certainly a concern.What's the word on the HOU or NE offensive lines? Homer info will be much appreciated.
I don't really disagree with this other than to point out that while Rivers has less impressive WRs, it is somewhat offset by Gates and Sproles. Romo's weapons are collectively better, but I don't think that is true of Brady and Schaub.
i agree with this. romo is my target fwiw bc he has more of a track record than schaub. its really splitting hairs to separate any of these guys except rivers, who is just slightly worse off. still tremendous value.
I'm in that same boat with pick 7/10 and 6 pts/TD. I think I will take either Romo or Schaub with my pick at 2.4. Otherwise I know I'll be stuck with the last starting QB selected.
This is how I feel I have 8 Qb's I really like and won't take a Qb no matter where I am in the draft until atleast 5 of them are gone. If i miss out on my 8 then go with a good committee type as a back up plan.
Agreed. I can actually see Rivers slipping to the 5th if someone jumps on Kolb, Cutler, Eli or Favre ahead of him, and he represents tremendous value that late. Regardless of the WR corps, the guy has a floor of 3800 yards and 24 TDs, and I expect about 4000 and 28. Unfortunately I don't think he has the upside of the Brady/Romo/Schaub tier, as any of these guys could go off for 4800 and 40+. But unless I were absolutely sold that one of these 3 were going to go off, you probably get the same production out of Rivers a few rounds later.
Me too (except for the part about Flacco and Ryan, who IMO despite talent and receivers, are in too conservative offenses to likely enter the top 10). The top 8 aren't different enough in opportunity and potential for me to take a top ranked guy as early as I would have to, unless someone slips significantly. At APD, I think waiting until 2 or 3 are left and taking the one you like there offers the most value. A guy you get in the 4th might turn out to be as good as the best. And that's a lot of extra RB/WR value for free.
