QB Draft Kit week continues today with our ranks and writeups. We are also taking a look into our crystal ball and with our 2010 stat projections. There was much debate here at Fantasy Football Brothers surrounding our combined ranks. There always is when you have five guys with five different opinions. We took each of our five individual ranks and combined them to come up with this rank. We will continuously update these ranks and projections as the NFL gets into full swing. 1) Drew Brees - NOR - QB CMP ATT PYDS PTD INT RUSH ATT RUSH YDS RUSH TD 399 585 4790 35 12 25 36 2 The reigning Super Bowl MVP enters 2010 as our #1 signal caller. After four straight 4,000 yard seasons it would be a crime not to rank Brees #1. The Saints offense comes back virtually intact so we can expect him to pass for more gaudy passing numbers in'10. The only thing hurting... read more

We’re kicking off our FREE 2010 Draft Kit with the most important position in football and arguably all of sports. Quarterback’s are the most important players on the football field and are far and away the most crucial to a teams overall success. (Disclaimer: I am the QB guru here, so I am a little biased on the position)The NFL has evolved into a pass first league, as the league has changed the rules that cater to the offense. More teams are spreading the field and throwing at least as much or more than they ever have before. This trend will continue to grow, and is the reason why front office personnel around the league will do almost anything to secure a top signal caller. Teams know that without a strong quarterback there's a good chance you can kiss your playoff hopes goodbye. The same is true... read more

The veteran's of college fantasy football have been aware of a trend that is just now rearing its' head in the NFL landscape of fantasy football. That would be the importance of quarterbacks and that going against the traditional RB-RB draft scenario can be rewarding. College Fantasy Football is built on and around the signal callers, especially the dual threat quartebacks that can air it out as well as run the rock. These players can be found far and wide in college football, but one has to look in the right places, such as Middle Tennesee St. or Nevada, both of which boasted 1,000 yard rushers in Dwight Dasher and Colin Kaepernick. The gun-slingers also put up a ton of fantasy points and none are better than Houston's Case Keenum.Keenum was absolutely silly last season and put up a stat line of 492-700 for 5,671 yards and... read more

The quarterback position is typically the most important player on the football field. 99% of the time QB play is crucial to a teams overall success. Over time the NFL has evolved into a pass first league. Sure, you'll always find a few teams that run the ball 35-40 times a game, but the majority are spreading out the field and throwing as much or more than they run the ball. It's a trend that will continue and is the reason why front office personnel around the league will almost always do anything to secure a top signal caller. Teams know that without a strong quarterback there's a good chance you can kiss your playoff hopes goodbye. The same can be said with fantasy football. Often without a top echelon quarterback leading your team, there is a decent chance you’ll miss the playoffs. Nine out of... read more

This week the Brotherhood will be releasing our 1st LOOK at the 2010 dynasty rankings. We know the season isn't technically over, but we also know how important it is to stay ahead of the competition. There is nothing wrong with starting your prep work a little early. We're going to kick off this week with the quarterbacks. This is how I would rank and value these players if I had to select my keepers today. These rankings will change throughout the off-season. Some teams are going to improve through the draft and free agency and others are going to lose key players. Philip Rivers is a good example of a player who could find himself losing several key members of the Chargers offense. The San Diego front office has a lot of decisions to make this off-season. Do they resign Vincent Jackson, Malcom Floyd and LaDainian Tomlinson? If they... read more

With the wild card round in the rear view mirror now, we're left with eight teams battling for divisional supremacy. The eight teams left leave us with a healthy batch of quarterbacks entering different paths in their careers. As many as four are destined for the hall of fame and will look to continue building there legacy. Two are striving to take the next step in an attempt to move into the top tier while the last two guys are simply out to make a name for themselves. We should take a moment and reflect on how special this group of quarterbacks truly is. We'll start at the top with Warner and Favre. Both are sure bets to make the hall and could be playing in their last games respectively. Warner is... read more

The regular season of Fantasy Football is over, but that doesn't mean the season is over. Fantasy Football Brothers takes a look at the Quarterback rankings for 2009 Playoff Leagues and these rankings are done by a last man standing type rules. This of course means the highest ranked players we believe will go the furthest in the NFL Playoffs. If you own Peyton Manning and the Colts are knocked out, you are done with scoring points from the Quarterback position. While we don't think this will be the case, you never know, anything can happen in the post-season. Playoff Leagues draft only one player at a position and no moves are allowed, again your player gets knocked out and he is done, that is where the last man standing comes in. Leagues usually run with the basic 1-QB<--->2-RB<--->2-WR<--->1-RB/WR<--->1-TE<--->1-K<--->1-D/ST type roster. Have a... read more

Week 17 is upon us. The final week of the NFL regular season inevitably signals the end of the 2009 Fantasy season. If your reading this then your probably playing for a title. I'm not a fan of the week 17 playoff format and will never play in a league that extends until this week. I feel like it takes away from everything owner's did throughout the year. To many teams rest players this week and I'm actually ok with it. I'm not ok with what the Colts did last weekend, but that's a separate rant all together. If you rode Peyton and Co. this far they either burned you last week or have you scrambling this week. The key is to find players who have something to play for, but at this point in the season, it's... read more

Fantasy Football Brothers goes into Week 16 with our ears pinned back and our hair on fire. This is the week we have been looking forward to the whole season. This is it, the big one, the one where you collect your title and reap the rewards as you bask in the glory of fantasy greatness. Week 16 offers alot of good matchups in the NFL as teams are scrambling to fill the last playoff spots. Some of the more notable games this week are the San Diego Chargers at Tennessee Titans, Baltimore Ravens at Pittsburgh Steelers, Houston Texans at Miami Dolphins, New York Jets at Indianapolis Colts, Denver Broncos at Philadelphia Eagles. One of the games flying under the radar this week is the Jacksonville Jaguars taking on the New England Patriots in Foxboro. The Patriots have been offensively challenged their last four games and have... read more

If your reading this then you're either playing for a championship or you're a week away from fantasy glory. This is the week to pay attention to what the coaches are saying. We need to know if certain players are going to rest or play sparingly. Check your waivers and look for those free agents who have solid match ups this week and could help your team in a pinch. We're not sure how the Colts are going to use Peyton Manning, if you own him have a backup plan in place just in case. The Colts have locked up everything in the AFC, unless they're shooting for perfection this could very well be the week Manning only plays a half. It's worth noting that some of our top QB's have very friendly match ups. Brees, Brady, Rodgers, Warner, Rivers and Schaub... read more
