Round One

1. LeSean McCoy -- Centerpiece of NFL's top rushing attack. 26 in July.
2. Adrian Peterson -- Expect heavy volume as Vikings break in rookie QB.
3. Jamaal Charles -- Splitting hairs between McCoy-AP-Charles at the top.
4. Matt Forte -- Slippery all-purpose bellcow runner in top-three offense.
5. Eddie Lacy -- Fat Eddie's TDs should rise with Aaron Rodgers healthy.
6. Marshawn Lynch -- Including playoffs, has 1,002 carries last three years.
7. Jimmy Graham -- Premier difference maker at fantasy's weakest position.
8. Calvin Johnson -- First, first, third in wideout scoring past three seasons.
9. Dez Bryant -- New pass-happy OC Linehan could vault Dez past Calvin.
10. DeMarco Murray -- Perfect fit for wide-open Linehan O. Will crush in PPR.
11. Demaryius Thomas -- Another serious candidate to be 2014's top WR1.
12. Julio Jones -- Expect big bounce-back season for Falcons skill players.

Round Two

13. A.J. Green -- 14th, fourth, fourth in receiver scoring since entering NFL.
14. Montee Ball -- 4.7 YPC as rookie. Set for 20 touches/game in Peyton O.
15. Le'Veon Bell -- Three-down volume RB with high TD & reception ceilings.
16. Julius Thomas -- Expect Julius' role to further expand post-Eric Decker.
17. Arian Foster -- Good bet to bounce back after injury-shortened season.
18. Zac Stacy -- Bellcow back on St. Louis team committing to run game.
19. Keenan Allen -- Philip Rivers' clear No. 1 target. 100-reception candidate.
20. Jordy Nelson -- My WR7, but top-five upside with Aaron Rodgers healthy.
21. Brandon Marshall -- Jay Cutler continued to force feed Marshall in 2013.
22. Alshon Jeffery -- Room for TD growth after managing 7 in breakout year.
23. Peyton Manning -- Regression likely but still favorite to be 2014's top QB.
24. Aaron Rodgers -- Should be biggest threat to Peyton with health restored.

Round Three

25. Drew Brees -- Top-two fantasy quarterback in five of his last six seasons.
26. Doug Martin -- Lovie Smith is a run-game believer. Martin is his best back.
27. Andre Johnson -- Going on 33, but enough left to flirt with top-10 WR1 stats.
28. Randall Cobb -- Was on pace for 112/1,547/11 before he got hurt last year.
29. C.J. Spiller -- Game breaker averaged 4.62 YPC despite playing hurt in '13.
30. Antonio Brown -- Fairly volume dependent, but should remain 100-catch guy.
31. Giovani Bernard -- Will get vultured at goal line, but touch total should soar.
32. Rob Gronkowski -- Will rise or fall in these rankings based on health reports.
33. Pierre Garcon -- Receptions will drop but TDs (5) & YPR (11.9) should rise.
34. Larry Fitzgerald -- Has lost upside for various reasons, but still strong WR2.
35. Matthew Stafford -- May lose volume post-Linehan, but should gain efficiency.
36. Ryan Mathews -- Chargers seem intent on limiting usage to keep him fresh.
