I refuse to rank at the top of the list a QB who's been out of the game over a year and whose knee status is uncertain. If he turns out to be pleasant surprise, fine, but I'm not going to bank on such a dicey proposition.

Circular Arguments: They are a heck of an annoyance

According to our local paper, Rodgers was the top fantasy-points earner in the entire league last year, though I find that hard to believe. That would obviously vary by how points were awarded in any given league. But for a fantasy draft projection, it makes complete sense that Rodgers would go at #2.

After all, does anyone seriously believe Brady will return to his pre-injury form his first year back?

Actually it's true. Most fantasy leagues award more points for rushing yards. Considering Rodgers scored a lot on quarterback sneaks and was very mobile ahead of the line of scrimmage, it attributed to a whole lot of bonus points.

According to www.pro-football-reference.com, Aaron Rodgers was 3rd in Fantasy. Drew Brees was first and Rivers was 2nd.

Their website follows a pretty "standard" fantasy rulebook, but as some folks have mentioned, different leagues go by different fantasy rules.

Just in case you're wondering, here is Aaron compared to the other two:

Drew      5039   34   17
Philip      4009   34   11
Aaron     4038   28   13

In '09, Mike McCarthy needs to be more aggressive in our opponent's Red Zone. Aaron would be driving the ball, then Mike McCarthy will decide to put the game in Ryan Grant's hands. Bad idea. So we'd end up with FGs instead of TDs.
Mike McCarthy seems to learn from his mistakes. I think we'll see a more aggressive O in '09, and don't be surprised to see Aaron with 30+ TDs. The yards may be around the same as will the INTs.

Brees' year was a statistical aberration. The odds of him having another year like that in '09 are very low. Possible? Yes. But likely? No.

The yards were a little high but honestly I believe he'll have pretty much an identical season, look at his career stats:

2006 - 4418 Pass yds, 26 TD
2007 - 4423 Pass yds, 28 TD
2008 - 5069 Pass yds, 34 TD

Sure he was better last year, but I still think he's a top 3 fantasy QB this year.

    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
    beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
