Note that this is for Fantasy only, but Yahoo Sports picked us as the #1 Fantasy team:

Good stuff worth reading. I do believe me may come close or even surpass 30 points per game. This team is going to be sick when it comes to stats.

I guess I should add some choice quotes:

Rodgers passed for 4,434 yards and 30 TDs last season while delivering the NFL's lowest interception percentage (1.29). He has the arm strength to make any throw in the playbook, he's quick to read defenses, and his improvisational skills are terrific.



Tight end Jermichael Finley(notes) is going to be a star, period. No debate allowed. He's 23 years old and on the doorstep of a great career, assuming he can stay healthy. This guy is simply an impossible matchup. He's much too fast for any linebacker to cover, and he's too tall and athletic for basically any NFL defensive back. And he has excellent hands. In that August win over the Colts, Finley was peppered with targets, catching six balls for 85 yards and one TD. Late in the second quarter, Rodgers hit him down the seam for a 25-yard gain, throwing high into double coverage and letting Finley out-leap everyone on the field. At that moment, I was convinced that the only human capable of covering Finley would be well, maybe a Finley clone. But no one else.



In each of the past two seasons, Jennings and Donald Driver(notes) have finished with 1,000-plus receiving yards. Both of them are perfectly safe fantasy plays. There were a few health questions surrounding the 35-year-old Driver entering camp, but the preseason quieted those concerns. Jennings ranks as our No. 8 wide receiver for fantasy purposes, and no expert places him lower than ninth overall. He's coming off a moderately disappointing season (68-1113-4), but that's because Rodgers so effectively spread the wealth last season. Nine different Packers caught TD passes, and no individual player had more than six. Jennings is a big-play threat at all times, capable of getting deep, but also adept at turning short slants into long, game-changing scores. Driver is a PPR star, with seven 1,000-yard seasons to his credit.



Jones would be a No. 1 for several NFL teams, and he'll be a must-start fantasy asset if/when he gets a bump in the Green Bay receiver hierarchy.



I totally believe this one. Yes, he had the dropsies last year. A bad year. But he's a stud. He reminds me of Sterling Sharpe in some ways. He's tougher than most CBs and he can burn you deep as well.

Yahoo also gave props to Ryan Grant and our D (for fantasy purposes), then went on to praise Brandon Jackson but with all due respect, I'm not so sure that Jackson is as big a fantasy stud (if Grant misses a game) that Yahoo thinks he could be.

Good stuff though. Worth reading.

I won my league last year with Rodgers, Finley, Jennings, Grant, and the D. I didn't start out so Packers-heavy or even intend to become so, but the offensive guys just kept putting up points and the D wasn't losing any points.

Rodgers and the D were the key to me winning, for sure.

Rodgers is the ultimate fantasy player. I had Rodgers, Jennings, Grant, the D, and Crosby last year and I just missed out. They all did well but when the packers had a bad game it hurt my team too much. So this year I just snagged Rodgers in the first round. I would have loved to get Finley, Jennings, or the pack D this year again but they were all gone by the time it got around to my next picks. I know i'm a real fanboy homer but it's hard not to take them when they put up such great numbers.

I also dominated my league last year with the help of Rodgers, Jennings, the D and some Finley though those of us who picked Finley were probably a year too early! I also scouted some then unknowns and absolutely dominated.

Tragically my group of friends don't have a league this year :/
