QuarterbackDollarCommentWide ReceiverDollarComment
      
1. Aaron Rodgers32We don't think he repeats that stellar performance of 2009. Although his rushing yards were very helpful, the 5 rushing TD was defiitely more than he'll see this year. 1. Andre Johnson44He's finished number 1 at WR the past two years, and the HOU situation is pretty much the same, so nothing standing in his way.
2. Drew Brees24Great year in 2009, and we would expect a similar performance in 2010. Very little in his situation has changed for 2010. 2. Randy Moss38Still one of the safest elite options out there. The Welker uncertainty plays in his favor.
3. Peyton Manning21He's the safest and most consistent QB on the board. And there are fewer questions surrounding his receiving corps this year, so we like him alot. 3. Miles Austin33If you prorate his catches over the games he started last year, he would have had over 100 catches. 90 should be attainable for Austin this year, even with Dez around.
4. Tony Romo18With Dez Bryant in the fold, and Miles Austin at his disposal, he's an attractive and consistent option on a potent offense. 4. Roddy White30The Falcons have a real nice sked against the pass with some weak D's on the docket. This bodes well for Roddy.
5. Tom Brady16Things seem to be clicking well with the NE passing game. The addition of the two athletic TE's gives him even more weapons, plus Welker seems healthy. 5. Calvin Johnson27Last season was a disappointment for sure, but with Burleson and Scheffler around to help keep D's honest he should resemble his 2008 form, minimally.
6. Matt Schaub15It would be difficult for him to outdo last year, in terms of production and his health, which is still a concern if you draft him. One healthy year isn't enough to shake the injury prone label. 6. Larry Fitzgerald26A shaky QB situation hurts him a bit, but anyway you slice it, he's almost a lock for double digit TDs
7. Jay Cutler14He should benefit from the Martz system, but if your league penalizes heavily for interceptions, keep that in mind. 7. Greg Jennings25Jennings is sure to improve on his meager 4 TD's from last years, but he can be frustrating at times so expect some up and down weeks.
8. Eli Manning13He's the opposite of Jay Cutler, in that he developed a nice chemistry with his corps of wideouts as the season wore on. That should carry over into this year. 8. Reggie Wayne24Still a receiving stud, but the presence of Collie and Garcon right out of the gate could chip away at his overall numbers.
9. Vince Young13What gives him value, obviously, is his rushing yardage. So long as he can keep it together, he should be a productive QB each week. 9. Brandon Marshall22Marshall won't see quite as many targets in Miami, but he should still get 1000 yards and 80-85 catches.
10. Philip Rivers13The potential ommission of VJax is an issue. Floyd and Nanee as your 1 and 2 could hurt. 10. Marques Colston22The big guy seems likely to haul in double digit TD's. He's a relatively safe choice for you in the high flying Saints O.
11. Kevin Kolb12At the end of the year, he'll have nice numbers, but with just a few real games under his belt, expect some clunkers against the tougher D's. 11. Steve (NYG) Smith20Smith is a PPR beast and one of our favorites for 2010. Might not catch 100 balls again, especially with Nicks emerging.
12. Matthew Stafford10He'll be exciting to watch but will still make his fair of mistakes. Burleson may help take some of the heat off Calvin (but we doubt it). Overall a better situation this year for Mr. Stafford. 12. Chad Ochocinco19He's certainly not a sleeper, but we think Chad improves upon his solid numbers from last year a little. They're still a run focused team, but the overall situation is improved from last year.
13. Donovan McNabb10He's not in a pass happy offense this year, so he's a low end number one QB. If you like passes in the dirt or behind the receiver, he's your guy. 13. Steve Smith19If you can get him at a discount given his broken arm, go for it. We still project him for 80 catches and 1000 yards.
14. Joe Flacco9He'll see a little bit more production than last year with his new weapons (Boldin/Stallworth),and has nice upside for more. 14. DeSean Jackson17It's all about the big play with DeSean, and he should still see a good bit of them with Kolb at QB. The Philly sked is loaded with high octane opponents, so Philly will be airing it out as usual.
15. Jason Campbell8This is a pretty good situation for Campbell. The Raiders receivers are a bit underrated mostly because they never had a QB that could utilize them. 15. Hines Ward17He's showing no signs of slowing down, but govern expectations a bit with Ben out a few games and Wallace around to eat away at some of his production. He may get off to a slower start than you like.
16. Brett Favre7You have to temper your expectations here with Rice out and harvin going MIA at any time. 16. Wes Welker16Welker is getting a significant bump up in the rankings. He may start slow though. If you can secure Edelman cheap, go for it.
17. Chad Henne6He got into a nice rythm last year, and with Brandon Marshall in town, he's a quality later round pick. 17. Hakeem Nicks16We like Nicks, but think he is going a little bit too high in most drafts. There always seems to be one guy in every draft that loves him and reaches for him early.
18. David Garrard5He's an unexciting option with unexciting receivers. In 4 games he produced less than 10 points, so he may lay eggs for you. Sims-Walker has the talent, but is inconsistent. 18. Anquan Boldin15He won't be as active as he was in Arizona, but he's still a quality option for you in an improving offense that he should be a key part of.
19. Alex Smith4It's all about Ted Ginn! (Just Kidding) With Crabtree producing on a regular basis, and Vernon Davis staying solid, it's a well rounded offense that facilitate a nice (not great) year for Smith. 19. Michael Crabtree14Take his 2nd half numbers and multiply them by 2 to give you a baseline projection for this year. From there, he should improve as well, so we see 70/900/7
20. Matt Ryan3Not a deep receiving corps at his disposal, and they'll still be running quite a bit, so he's a high end #2 QB at best. 20. Percy Harvin12Percy is an exciting player to have on your team, but that excitement doesn't translate to consistent production. With the migraine issue, he could disappear on you at any time.
21. Carson Palmer2Some nice addition to his receiving corps in Bryant and Matt Jones, but Benson is still gonna be the focus. 21. Pierre Garcon10The talk of Gonzalez coming back doesn't bother us. Garcon showed what he is capable of and it would be silly not to keep him in there as the starter.
22. Matt Cassel1His receiving corps is full of question marks. We're not Chambers fans, Bowe is an underachiever, and McCluster is a wild card. And even with the talent there, Cassel fails to utilize it fully. 22. Dwayne Bowe10Things seem to be going much better for Bowe this year. So he could present a good value for you if you can grab him in the 7th or later.
23. Josh Freeman1His receiving crew is thin, so he'll need one of the two rookies (Benn or Williams) to make a significant contribution. Winslow can't do it himself, and Clayton is a waste. Freeman get rush yds though 23. Johnny Knox9The talk is big on Knox right now, supposedly zeroing in on a starting spot. If the rest of the guys in your league are drafting out of magazines, you could grab this guy late and steal him.
24. Derek Anderson1Leinart's demise is Anderson's fortune. We think he can pass for around 3000 and 20 TDs this year. 24. Santana Moss8McNabb should help bump up his TD's which is really the only thing that made him a disappointment last year.
25. Mark Sanchez1He simply won't be needed to air it out much, with a potentially smothering Defense keeping scores low, and a running game that looks to be potent. 25. Jeremy Maclin7Maclin makes a nice WR3 or Flex, but most of his production comes on very basic fly routes. He needs more tricks in his bag, and he shows a bit of softness in his game, easily nicked up.
26. Jake Delhomme0He's the starter at least. We expect him to be serviceable. 26. Eddie Royal6Royal is gaining some momentum. Based on talent alone, he is the best option for the Broncos, and that seems to be coming through inthe preseason.
27. Kyle Orton1When Jabar Gaffney is looking like your best option, times are tough. Royal should rebound a bit, but don't expect the great start of 2009. 27. Devin Hester5His production really tailed off at the end of this year. Hopefully Martz can get a little more consistency out of him this year. He'll likely end up 1 or 2 in catches on CHI.
28. Sam Bradford1It will be Bradford out of the gate, but best to take a wait and see approach before rostering him. 28. Mike Sims-Walker5We're not big fans of Walker. He's too inconsistent to be reliant upon week in and week out.
29. Matt Moore1He was decent, but Carolina is still a running team. Their receiving corps lacks an identity as of now, and will take shape over the course of the season. 29. Jabar Gaffney4Gaffney continues to look good, and catches nearly everything thrown at him. He's a very under the radar number 1.
30. Ben Roethlisberger1The six game suspension hurts, and the limited participation with the team doesn't help either. Maybe 2500 yards for him if things go well. 30. Braylon Edwards4He's a disappointment, but there are reasons to be optimistic. A winning team where he's not expected to carry the load, and a contract year as well. Who knows? Perhaps a true sleeper.
31. Matt Hasselbeck1Hasselbeck doesn't look to be in store for a productive year, though Tate or Deon Butler could surprise. Forsett and Leon Washington will facilitate significant dink and dunk. 31. Laurent Robinson3He's the new number 1 receiver with the Avery injury.
32. Trent Edwards0This guy is still the QB? WTF? At least they won't be yanking the offensive coordinator just before the season starts this year. He's still a weak option, and so are his wideouts. 32. Mike Wallace3Better in a standard scoring league, as he doesn't haul in large quantities. And with Ben out, he too could be somewhat quiet early on.
   33. Lee Evans2Such talent wasting away in Buffalo. With Owens gone, he should get 800 yards regardless.
   34. Derrick Mason2Images of that playoff TD bouncing off his facemask still haunt us. Will he show his age in ? Boldin and Stallworth in town, his targets may drop a bit, but he'll still be a decent PPR flex option.
   35. Malcom Floyd1Floyd is getting a lot of love with V Jax on the hold out trail. Don't overpay for him though.
   36. Bernard Berrian1With the injury to Rice, Berrian's role will increase. So he's a decent 4 or possibly 3 wideout.
   37. Donald Driver1We;re applying the appropriate amount of depreciation to Mr. Drivers's projections given his mature age. Mojo says 63/820/5
   38. Steve Breaston1He's the number 2 option now, and we like him a little more with Leinart out of the picture.
   39. Terrell Owens1In Cincy, he'll have to share with OchoCinco. It will be interesting to see how this plays out, but we think he'll end up with around 60/800/6
   40. Robert Meachem1He's very streaky, but can put up a monster game at any time. Kind of like Dev Henderson, you throw him in the lineup and pray. We don't think he'll do too much beyond last years numbers.
   41. Devin Aromashodu0The word is good on his progress, and they speak of him in starter terms. He was Cutler's fav target at the end of last year.
   42. Jerricho Cotchery0In our opinion, Cotchery is still the most reliable option on the Jets. But the picture is now crowded with many other options. He'll be a decent #3 or flex in any given week.
   43. Mohamed Massaquoi0Delhomme could potentially be decent enough to make Mass a semi productive player for you. There's not a lot behind him, so if having a #1 will make you happy, go for it.
   44. Kenny Britt0Not a lot of passing going on in TEN, but should be the primary target.
   45. Devery Henderson0We highly recommend him (in a draftmaster league). He'll have a few big games, but his inconsistency makes him a puzzling start each week.
   46. Mario Manningham0Expect him to accomplish what he did last year, with some nice upside in an offense that benefits the wideouts. Could be big if there's an injury in front of him.
   47. Mike Thomas0Thomas is an intriguing option. He'll likely start, SimsWalker we have questions about, and the Jack sked is pretty friendly. Pick him up real late as a wild card and a viable bye week starter.
   48. Nate Burleson0If he were playing on some other team, we'd be more optimistic. He's a nice talent, but the Detroit sked makes it tough to have high expectations for Burleson.
   49. Josh Morgan0Morgan is everyone's favorite preseason sleeper (every year). This could be the year though. The SF sked is soft, and Alex Smith and Crabtree will provide a stable environment.
   50. Jacoby Jones0He seems to be passing Walter on the depth chart, and if AJ goes down, he's arguably a #2 receiver.
   51. Joshua Cribbs0His multi faceted talents make him especially valuable in leagues that give individual points to players that score on special teams.
   52. Davone Bess0Bess is underappreciated. This year, again, he is getting dissed. We're a little higher on him than most, and still think he can grab around 60 balls this year.
   53. Jason Avant0Avant is a very capable receiver, and has great hands. Last year he caught 70% of the balls thrown his way. If Maclin of DeSean goes down, he'll be a VERY hot property.
   54. Louis Murphy0Murphy looks like the top receiver now for the Raiders. Zach Miller is still the top overall passing option though.
   55. Dexter McCluster0A lot of parallels being draw between Dexter and Percy Harvin. Sadly, Favre isn't QBing, and AP isn't in the backfield. These are the Chiefs. He will be exciting, but his opportunities limited.
   56. Austin Collie0Fives a crowd (when you factor in Clark and A-Gonzo). A nice bye week fill in for you .
   57. Dez Bryant0The preseason injury will stunt his growth this year. But he seems to be over that initial injury. Expect a bit of a slow start to the season.
   58. Julian Edelman0He'll be hard to keep off the field given his dynamic ability.
   59. James Jones0It's gotta happen soon, right? The changing of the guard in GB with Driver passing the torch? You'll want to be holding Jones as this transition occurs. It should happen this year.
   60. Mike Williams0Williams is emerging from the pack and looks like a lock to start and be productive as well.
   61. Santonio Holmes0With the suspension and the run focused offense, 48 catches is the call for 580 yards.
   62. Nate Washington0In that offense, he's just too spotty of a producer to count on as a starter on your team. Maybe in a Draftmasters league he's viable, since he's likely have 2 or 3 big games. See Devery Henderson.
   63. Devin Thomas0He teased you last year with a couple big games. He should be more consistent this year and is a guy with upside. But in our opinion, not worth reaching for in drafts.
   64. Mike Williams0Williams has found a new home in Seattle, and is starting. Worth a shot as a late draft pick.
   65. Chris Chambers0His productivity in KC was truly astonishing after being MIA in San Diego. They have more dynamic options in KC though, so his production last year likely represents a ceiling of what he'll do in 2010
   66. Roy Williams0With Austin's continuing ascent to prominence, and Dez Bryants arrival, we doubt Williams experiences any kind of renaissance this year. But he may be more active early with Bryant hurting.
   67. Kevin Walter0Walter was a bit of a disappointment last year, and this year, Jacoby Jones is pushing him for the #2 spot.
   68. Sidney Rice0He's likely out for half the season with hip surgery
   69. Early Doucet0Doucet came on nicely late last year, and with Leinart out of the picture, his chances to be a factor just got better.
   70. Golden Tate0We think Tate makes more of an impact on special teams. Though Housh may be limited, that doesn't mean Tate gets those targets. Deon Butler could still easily outcatch Tate.
   71. Darrius Heyward-Bey0Inital reports this year are positive, and he has a capable QB throwing the ball, so he should at least be respectable in this offense.
   72. Lance Moore0With the continuing issues Meachem is having with injury, Moore is is a position to make a nice comeback here.
   73. Brian Hartline0He could very well end up as the #2 receiver in Miami, but we like Bess better in a PPR.
   74. Legedu Naanee0Technically (while VJax is in limbo) he's the #2 wideout in a high powered SD offense. Certainly worth a gander in deep leagues.
   75. Anthony Gonzalez0We think Gonzalez does return this year, but won't be starting. Still if one of the other guys gets hurt, then we may have the same situation as last year, but he emerges instead.
   76. Arrelious Benn0Benn is progressing slowly, as Williams continues to emerge in the wideout competition.
   77. Vincent Jackson0Until the situation between Jackson and the Chargers shows some signs of resolution we're putting him down for about a third of a seasons worth of production.
   78. Demaryius Thomas0Demaryius has suffered some setbacks in preseason, and looks to be a role player at best this year.
    
    
Running BackDollarCommentTight EndDollarComment
    
1. Chris Johnson73Expecting another season like 2009 would be irresponsible, but 1600-1700 yards seems reasonable. His receiving totals may get a boost as he did better in that area when Young was QB. 1. Dallas Clark15We don't expect him to catch 100 balls again, but he's still the #1 option in our opinion.
2. Adrian Peterson69With so much drama at the wideout position going on, the Vikings could lean on Peterson even more. 2. Antonio Gates12With VJax likely out, you would think Gates would pick up more targets. On the other hand, he's still having foot issues, but he always seems to work through them so don't get too discouraged by that.
3. Maurice Jones-Drew66Not much has changed about his situation which is good and bad. He'll still be productive, but looking at the JAC schedule, his better games might not come until the second half. 3. Vernon Davis8Initially this offseason, we were skeptical about his chances to repeat his great 2009 performance. But after looking at the SF schedule, it seems like a very real possibility.
4. Frank Gore63If Gore could stay healthy all 16 games, he would be a top 3 pick. SF is a team on the rise, gets to play a lot of softees, and will run the ball. If he does play 16, LOOK OUT! 4. Jason Witten6Witten is being passed over by many this year at the TE position. But he caught only 2 TD's last year. Had he caught 5 or 6, people would be drafting him #1.
5. Ray Rice61We like Rice, but he may not reach the levels of last year. McGahee and Boldin concern us. With improved receiving options this year, Rice's skills there may be less necessary. 5. Brent Celek3The secret is out on Celek. We see him being drafted as high as the No. 4 TE in drafts.
6. Steven Jackson58Feeley and Bradford won't reduce the reliance on Jackson, and it's still a bad team. With the beating he's been taking, and his back surgery, he poses risk. He'll def have more than 4 TD's though. 6. Jermichael Finley2His production can be up and down a bit, as there are so many receiving options in GB, however his TD's will be huge.
7. Rashard Mendenhall56Things in Pittsburgh are still a little shaky, but Mendenhall seems to be a bright spot amidst the uncertainty. 7. Zach Miller1Amazing that he caught 66 balls last year with that situation at QB. We think he can snag 80 passes this year.
8. Michael Turner54Turner has apparently avoided McDonalds in the offseason, so he is at a nice fighting weight. In his absence, the Falcons discovered Snelling, so Turner will still do great, but may be spelled. 8. Kellen Winslow0He's the most reliable passing target on the team, with two young wideouts. He clicks well with Freeman, so he's looking attractive in 2010.
9. Ryan Grant52Grant redeemed himself last year, and in the high powered GB offense, he's in a good position to succeed. His success can be greatly attributed to that. 9. Tony Gonzalez0He's certainly not a guy to target at TE. But if he's hanging around a little later than he should, he's worth having as he should still end up with 75 catches and 7+ TD's.
10. DeAngelo Williams50There's plenty of RB production to go around in Carolina, but it could be so much more for DeAngelo, and we think Stewart gets more touches this year. 10. Visanthe Shiancoe0Favre is going to need receiving options and with Rice out for a while and Harvin a weekly wildcard, he could easily put up big numbers.
11. Jamaal Charles48We were alot more excited about Charles BEFORE Thomas Jones arrived. They likely don't want him carrying the load that he did at the end of last year, so don't expect many of those in 2010. 11. John Carlson0Carlson is a nice guy to target if you want to hold off on your TE. They have a nice schedule and their WR receiving options are shaky with Housh's hernia surgery, no Burleson, and young wideouts.
12. Joseph Addai46In 2009 he made us look bad by staying relatively healthy.But there's always 2010! Donald Brown, though he did nothing great last year, still impacts Joey, who can get a BooBoo at any time. 12. Chris Cooley0Cooley should be back to normal, and if the chemistry is good with McNabb (so far it is), he should really come up big. He's their best receiver.
13. Ryan Mathews43It's a great situation for Mathews. It's a good offense, he's the featured back (Sproles not a worry),and their schedule is awesome. Only injury would keep him from a 1000+ yd rookie season. 13. Heath Miller0With Roethlisberger out a few games, and then working his way back into the lineup, we think the passing numbers will be down across the board, and so will Miller's.
14. Tim Hightower41Hightowers true value is in PPR leagues. Last year he caught 63 passes. That's huge, and 2nd overall amongst RB's. This year we will see more Beanie, but Hightower is a fav in short yardage and 3rd dn 14. Owen Daniels0We're a little leary of Daniels coming off the ACL.The fact that his team isn't going out of their way to commit to him with a contract is telling.
15. Shonn Greene40We really like what we saw with Greene late last year. LT is less of a threat to his productivity than most think, as his tank is near empty. The Jets will protect plenty of leads too. 15. Greg Olsen0The general concensus is that he won't be featured in the Mike Martz offense. But that doesn't mean he won't have a big game or two, so don't ignore him completely.
16. Pierre Thomas37Reggie Bush is still around, and Lynell will likely vulture some TD's, but you can count on Pierre for double digit points just about every week ina PPR. 16. Jeremy Shockey0Make sure you have depth at TE if you draft Shockey. He's a nice TE, but injury prone, and not the most consistent.
17. Cedric Benson36We're bumping up his catch numbers, just a tad, though they are still low overall. Cincy looks poised for a strong year. 17. Tony Scheffler0Scheffler is officially a sleeper TE. He's got great hands, and the Lions will throw. Pettigrew's ability to return this year is still hazy.
18. Matt Forte31Forte didn't live up to the hype in 09, but he is a ball catching machine, and he should continue that with Martz around. A great Buy Low candidate for 2010. 18. Dustin Keller0There's not a lot of passes to go around in the Jets, but he should certainly do better than 2 TD's this year.
19. Reggie Bush29Bush is maddening to own. His number of touches is very limited, and though he seems to make the most of them, you can't make that assumption. He's feast of famine. Tough to start on a weekly basis. 19. Todd Heap0Heap experience a bit of a renaissance last year, but we're not counting on him to repeat. There are some younger TE's in Baltimore that will see time.
20. LeSean McCoy28He failed to rush for 100 in any game last year, and he's no sure bet at the goal. He's good for 8-15 fantasy point in PPR each week though. 20. Kevin Boss0Can't get too excited about Boss, but he's a decent fill in starter. We expect the NYG passing game to thrive this year.
21. Jonathan Stewart28His overall numbers last year were a bit inflated by his late season heroics. When DeAngelo is playing, Stewart's production is spotty, but we think he'll still see more carries this year than last. 21. Fred Davis0It's a TE friendly system (and QB with McNabb) in Washington. Davis has some upside, especially if Cooley experiences a set back, in which case he'd be huge.
22. Arian Foster24Bumping his numbers way up with the serious injury to Ben Tate. 22. Bo Scaife0People are excited about Jared Cook, but Scaife has done nothing to merit a demotion. He clicks well with Young.
23. Ahmad Bradshaw23He is looking good and the supposed starter, but we're not counting out Jacobs completely. They may be trying to light a fire under his ass. 23. Marcedes Lewis0Lewis doesn't have tremendous upside (that would be the other Zach Miller),so he's not really a guy you target to draft, except maybe in a draftmasters league.
24. Knowshon Moreno23The preseason injury will hinder him early on in the season. But perhaps you can grab him at a discount for the playoff run. 24. Jermaine Gresham0TE's do not thrive in the Cincy offense, and to expect a rookie one to have much success would be unreasonable.
25. Justin Forsett2With the release of Julius Jones, Forsett likely gets his lead back role secured.    
26. Marion Barber22He'll be one head on a 3 headed monster, but we think he resumes his old role of 3rd down back / goal line man.    
27. Jerome Harrison19A slight bump with the Hardesty injury as he could take a firm grasp on the lead RB job.    
28. C.J. Spiller18With the Jackson injury, the opportunity is there for Spiller. He's certainly dynamic. But beware of that run schedule.    
29. Jahvid Best17Best likely carries the load this year. We like the overall upgrade in offense which should help. In general whoever the DET back is in a given week has been nicely productive.    
30. Beanie Wells11Beanie's production gained momentum late in the year, and they'll want that to carry over in 2010 as they will need a run game to take the heat off their substandard QB's.    
31. Darren McFadden11We're upgrading him with the Bush injury, but he's been in this position before and has been unspectacular.    
32. Ronnie Brown11For now, it looks like he's a go for the start of the year. He'll still split time with Ricky, but don't think he hits more than 800 yards this year.    
33. Cadillac Williams9Cadillac refuses to go away, and after Ward sh*t the bed in 2009, no reason he won't do similar things in TB (which are unexciting given that team).    
34. Ricky Williams6Though Brown is coming back, Ricky looks to have some upside as he potentially stands to benefit by any Brown setbacks.    
35. Fred Jackson5We're bumping down his numbers a tad with the hand injury. How much that cuts into his overall production and gives way to more time to Spiller remains to be seen.    
36. Darren Sproles5Sproles will remain a change of pace guy, with perhaps a bit more work earlier in the year as Mathews gets going.    
37. Larry Johnson4Larry Johnson has a shot to produce in Washington. Portis can break at any time, and FWP is not a factor any more. If they sign Westbrook though, our outlook will change.    
38. Felix Jones3As part of a committee, we feel he has the most upside since he can take it to the house any time he touches the ball. The other two are more limited in that respect.    
39. Sleve Slaton1With the Tate injury, Slaton will have the opportunity for significant time share, but we like Foster better.    
40. LaDainian Tomlinson1We're not as excited about LT as some others. He's in a situation that favors RB's, but his skills aren't all that anymore. We would expect his production to trend downard as the season progresses.    
41. Thomas Jones0Jones has a lot left in the tank, and it looks like a thunder and lightning situation here in KC. This guy ran for 1400 yards last year, yet we're seeing him drafted in rounds 7-9.    
42. Clinton Portis0Another crowded backfield, but we like Portis just a tad more than Larry Johnson, and much more than Willie Parker. He's likely to break down at some point, but he's still a good buy low candidate.    
43. Leon Washington0Washington is looking like the best back as of now, surprisingly. However, you have to be concerned about his durability here. He does pose some risk coming off the injury.    
44. Michael Bush0Gotta downgrade him significantly with the thumb injury. That's too bad as he was looking good.    
45. Brandon Jacobs0He didn't exactly live up to the lofty expectations last year. So this year he may actually represent some value based on his current ADP, but the talk is ALL Bradshaw for now.    
46. Correll Buckhalter0Buckhalter was amazing productive given the amount of touches he had. But even if he gets the same workload, it would be tough to repeat that 5.3 YPC number.    
47. Willis McGahee0His performance in 2009 was a pleasant surprise, and though he'll still be a significant factor in the BAL running game this year, we don't think he sees double digit TD's again.    
48. Chester Taylor0Though exciting Taylor lands in the Mike Martz offense, we still expect him to serve a complementary role. Forte is a decent receiver himself, so Chester's numbers may still be meager.    
49. Sammy Morris0Morris looked pretty good last year when he was healthy. If he can achieve that this year, he's a decent fill in, and a good player for depth. We're not Maroney fans.    
50. Laurence Maroney0Maroney is an enigma. There are no signs to indicate he will have much success, yet our gut intincts tell us he will eventually lead the pack here in NE.    
51. Donald Brown0Wow, all the Addai bashing we did last year, and Brown turned out to be the injury prone one. Unless Addai gets hurt (it's likely),Brown's impact is minimal.    
52. Kevin Faulk0He has value in PPR leagues as he catches enough ball in any given week to make him a low end flex option that you can use in a pinch.    
53. Bernard Scott0With the injury to Brian Leonard, Scott finds himself in a nice spot. He definitely has value as a complimentary back to Benson, and if Benson goes down, he would be a top 15 back.    
54. Peyton Hillis0Hillis has been very productive in the past when given the chance, and opportunity has presented itself in Cleveland. He's worth a draft pick in deeper leagues.    
55. Tashard Choice0Choice is a nice talent, and it's a lock that either Barber or Felix Jones will go down at some point. When that happens, it will be nice to have Choice on your team, as his value will be high.    
56. Brian Westbrook0We don't see Westbrook as a handcuff for Gore. He'll be a situational back whether its Gore, Dixon, or Robinson. He's not built for a lead role any longer.    
57. Toby Gerhart0Expecting Gerhart to fill in and produce the numbers that Chester Taylor did is irresponsible. He's no more than a handcuff to AP, and will mostly get some garbage time action when the Vikes lead big.    
58. Kareem Huggins0The backup to Carnell Williams is always a worthwhile handcuff. Worth a flier in deeper leagues, or if you own Carnell Williams.    
59. Joe McKnight0Mcknight is one of those grab and stash guys at draft time. If something happens to Shonn Greene, we think McKnight gets a shot. We don't think that LT can handle the feature role if needed.    
60. Kevin Smith0It's really too early to make a call on Smith. We'd szy he opens the season on IR, but may be a factor mid season some time. Buyer beware if you are drafting early.    
61. Jerious Norwood0The emergence of Jason Snelling last year has cut into the limited production Norwood was already resigned to, so it would take an injury to one of the other two to make Norwood relevant.    
62. Javon Ringer0He's the clear handcuff to Chris Johnson, and they will likely spell Johnson more this year anyway, so Ringer is relevant. If you get Johnson, get Ringer.    
63. Jason Snelling0Snelling mostly has value in the event that Turner and/or Norwood go down again. Otherwise he's a bit player. If you own Turner, he's the logical choice as handcuff.    
64. Derrick Ward0With RB's dropping like flies in Houston, Ward may end up doing something of note at some point, but that's no reason to draft him.    
65. Anthony Dixon0With Coffee retiring, he suddently becomes relevant. He has looked good in preseason.    
66. Rock Cartwright0Cartwright is worth pointing out, as the 3rd back in production does have some relevance given their history of being somewhat fickle with their backs. Bush and McFadden aren't the most stable pair.    
67. Jonathan Dwyer0He is underachieveing in camp. Don't draft him.    
68. Julius Jones0The Julius experiment is over in Seattle. We'll reassign a value to him IF he signs elsewhere.

1. NYJ12 1. Garrett Hartley4Great team, in a dome, and very accurate.
2. MIN8 2. Stephen Gostkowski3The Pats move the chains as well as anyone, so Gostkowski will be in a position to boot em all year long.
3. SF6 3. Ryan Longwell3Another guys who's accurate, plays on a good offensive team, and kicks in a dome.
4. BAL4 4. Mason Crosby2Not the most accurate, but they're not afraid to let him try the long ones. An of course, its the Packers here.
5. PHI4 5. David Akers2One of the best in the game, and if the Eagles O struggles just a bit, that could translate into even more FG opportunities.
6. PIT3 6. Nate Kaeding2Mr. Finkle...I mean Kaeding did lead all kickers last year, but we think the Chargers O could take a slight step back this year.
7. DAL3 7. Rob Bironas2Just a solid guy year in and year out. The past two years he's hit the 20 point mark in games, so he's an explosive kicker as well
8. NO2 8. Robbie Gould2The Martz effect is so cliche at this point, but there should be more sustained drives (instead of ones killed by Cutler INT''s). This bodes well for the Penn State alum.
9. GB2 9. Sebastian Janikowski2We think all the Oakland players improve this year based on the competent QB play they should get. This helps SeaBass as well.
10. MIA2 10. Neil Rackers2Rackers is the man for Houston, and its a high scoring offense.
11. CHI2 11. Lawrence Tynes2The Giants offense continues to trend upwards as their young players mature. Tynnes' success should continue.
12. SD2 12. Matt Prater2The Denver kicker is always a decent bet as that thin air favors them. Prater gets plenty of long attempts as a result.
13. CIN2 13. Dan Carpenter2The Miami offensive situation should be better this year, and Carpenter is a pretty steady performer, knocking in multiple field goals most weeks.
14. NYG2 14. Nick Folk2He's a bit shaky in our opinion, but the Jets offense is one of those that we can see stalling quite a bit with the young Sanchez leading the way. He'll be in a position to be a top 5 K so that's good
15. NE2 15. David Buehler1Buehler seems to have locked up the job. Now if he can effectively make the transition to field goal kicker, he could be very productive in this offense.
16. TEN1 16. Adam Vinatieri1He's not the kicker that he used to be, but he's on a top 3 offensive team, and kicks mostly in a dome.
17. IND1 17. Jeff Reed1Reed isn't the most flash name at Kicker, but he's reliable , and in a year where there seems to be a lot of uncertainty at K, that's comforting.
18. CAR1 18. Ryan succop1Succop was very reliable last season, and the Chiefs schedule this year is soft, so he has a chance to build on last year.
19. DEN1 19. Joe Nedney1Nedney is a blah selection at Kicker, but the job is his, and the team should be much improved this year, plus their easy schedule helps.
20. ARI1 20. Jay Feely1Feely gets little respect. With the questions surrounding how the Cardinals will fare this year sans Warner, Feely's success is similarly in question.
21. HOU0 21. John Kasay0Kasay's been slacking the last few years, but with Matt Moore leading the way, perhaps the situation stabilizes which makes Kasay at least more consistent.
22. ATL0 22. Rian Lindell0The Buffalo situation is still gloomy. But Lindell has been surprisingly good, despite the overall team situation.
23. WAS0 23. Olindo Mare0His last two years haven't been that bad. He's worth considering based on the favorable schedule Seattle has this year.
24. SEA0 24. Graham Gano0With little track record to go on, he's a tough call. But McNabb should at least keep the ball moving, which means Gano could have some potential as a guy you can grab real late.
25. OAK0 25. Phil Dawson0Dawson is a sneaky play as his numbers were low due to injury. When he did play, he produced well, even in this offense.
26. CLE0 26. Billy Cundiff0He's won the starting job for Baltimore, but just a mediocre option a kicker
27. TB0 27. Josh Scobee0Scobee was off the mark last year with his field goal percentage. Leave him on the waiver wire if possible.
28. BUF0 28. Josh Brown0Josh Brown is a great kicker, sadly the team he kicks for is not. But if you think the Rams can turn it around this year, go for it. He's a reliable option in that event.
29. STL0 29. Jason Hanson0His job is secure, but that's about all the positives we can come up with. Still, if you're in a real deep league, you can grab him late.
30. JAC0 30. Matt Bryant0Bryant would seemingly be the favorite to win the kicking job over Haushka.
31. DET0 31. Mike Nugent0Nugent has some competition with Dave Rayner for the Cincy job, but he should pull it out.
32. KC0 32. Connor Barth0In last place, we have the Tampa kicker Connor Barth,and even then there seems to be some competition with Hunter Lawrence.
