Will be the value of this years QB class.

With an ADP around 100, this is the guy I am targeting.

Will have a great year.



Thoughts and or comments encouraged.

seems to be every analysts "trendy" pick, so by the time your draft rolls around his ADP will be about where it should be, if not over valued.

You will be disappointed. He will be a low end fantasy #1, like 11th or 12th.

Rodgers
Luck
Brees
Romo
Peyton
Brady
Wilson
Big Ben
Stafford
Ryan

That's 11 guys that I would take over him...probably Cam and Rivers too.

I liked him coming out of college and he has some nice weapons around him, but I don't think he finishes above most of those guys.

He has STRUGGLED to stretch the field and be accurate downfield. He was very good for a stretch last year where he would throw for a couple of TDs and rush for 50-60 yards. I don't think you can rely on those rushing yards week to week. He'll have his moments in 2015, but will burn you more weeks than you'd like out of your starting QB.

if you go QBBC he's a solid guy to pair with say Eli.

I don't think one should target Ryan Tannehill. He may be the lesser of two evils in round 10, but not a QB I'd feel comfy making a ship run.

I'll look into using him some in daily leagues. Last year I can remember a week where I really thought hard about using him in a big cash tournament (the Dolphins were playing the Vikings at home) but backed off the night before the game and settled on Drew Brees who was taking on the ATL Falcons at the Dome.

well, Tannehill threw for like over 400 yards and I don't know how many TD's. He was the top scorer at QB for the week and my lineup did well except Brees.

it was a shitty weekend all around.

my thought process in taking Tannehill was that maybe he'd blow up since they were playing a team that wasn't all that familiar with them.

sucks.

Everyone wants to get in on a steal so much that it ceases to be a steal. Hype machine burns every year.

I'm thinking about grabbing him myself. This is his third year going with the new OC book I believe? Could be solid this year... could also suck... but taking him in the 6/7th is worth it. Should leave you with some stout first 2-3 picks.

I go QB in about the 5th round usually. Unless someone like Luck or Rodgers is there are the end of the 2nd, early 3rd or something.

I want to get 3 studs at RB/WR spots to start

Carson Palmer/Teddy Bridgewater would be a better bet.

Slim pickings after the 3rd round.

Palmer was a top 10 QB before his injury last season. They improved their offensive line and have a good core of WRs to throw to. If he can avoid injury, he's a steal late in the draft.

Not sure why you think it's funny, he's got a ton of upside for his ADP

He's old and can't stay healthy.

Just not a guy I want. He is not worth the risk, better QB's available at his ADP. Why risk it?

But I think Bridgewater is gonna be a dark horse and a solid
pick.

Let's play a game, match these QBs with their point total from last year, without looking.

The QBs are: Matt Ryan, Ryan Tannehill, Tom Brady, Tony Romo, Phillip Rivers, Eli Manning.


344
340
334
333
329
327

Risk? What risk?

Dude is get to drafted near the 20th QB off the board. He's not even a top 100 player. There's certainly no risk involved for a QB you can draft as your backup and plug in as a starter week to week. Late picks are about potential and Palmer still has the potential to be a top 10-12 QB
