I’ve been playing Fantasy Football for over 20 years now, and I still have magazines dating back to the early ’90s. Here are the 1992 Fantasy Football Rankings from the 1992 Fantasy Football Index Magazine that I got at a local grocery store back then. I thought I’d start posting these old rankings and cheatsheets …

Before we get into our 2018 Rookie Quarterback Rankings, we want to look back at the best Fantasy Football rookie quarterbacks ever, just to give the new first-year phenoms something to be measured against.

The 2016 Fantasy quarterback rankings are littered with players that should have big years, players that could have big years and players whose big years are likely far behind them. Last year, we thought Andrew Luck would replace Peyton Manning as a top-three quarterback for the next decade.
This week, we start our big Fantasy breakout series, looking at the players we expect to post better Fantasy production than their current ADP might indicate.

The NFL announced Monday that New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady's suspension will be for four games to start the 2015 NFL season for his part in #DeflateGate -- the controversy surrounding the deflated balls in the 2014 AFC Championship Game. It wasn’t as shocking as some of the NFL’s other recent announcements, including both …
The 2015 Quarterback rankings look a little different this season than in years past, but your Fantasy Football league won’t suddenly see more quarterbacks taken in the early rounds.

So many. Yes, I am referring to the teams on bye-weeks the last two weeks. Hopefully, you survived.

Unfortunately, the NFL season has flown by, and we’re very …
Over the past two weeks, 12 teams have gone on bye weeks, which means you’ve had 12 fewer quarterbacks to choose from for your starting lineup. While there are still four more teams going on a bye in Week 11, the Week 11 QB rankings look better stocked than they have in a while. And …
Six quarterbacks are coming off of bye weeks and six quarterbacks are going on bye weeks, which means there are difficult decisions to make – and these Week 10 QB rankings prove that to be true. I just wrote my Week 10 Waiver Wire column for SI.com, and I suggested picking up Mark Sanchez, Kyle …

Did you survive Bye-mageddon, as Bob Harris of FootballDiehards.com called it? Six teams had early byes in Week 4, and teams had to scramble to fill their lineups. Our Week 5 QB rankings brings back Peyton Manning and Russell Wilson into the fold. But then again, with two teams on byes this week, so you’ll …

We're going to examine the best and worst Fantasy Football strength of schedules at quarterback. Consider the tips and bits of advice as …
The first week of the NFL season is like a present someone just handed you. There’s no doubt it’s going to be awesome, but will you get exactly what you were hoping for?

A few months ago, after a softball game and during several beers at Maguires, our local pub, SI.com’s Eric Mack and I started talking about doing a Fantasy podcast together. After months of putting it off, thinking we’d never get our act together, and thousands of chicken wings, we finally held our first “Fantasy Fatcast” …
The key component to any NFL franchise these days is the quarterback. Look at all of the past 10 Super Bowl champions; they all had Super Bowl-caliber quarterbacks. The teams I’ll be discussing are not Super Bowl-caliber teams. However, these quarterbacks are crucial for Fantasy production for numerous other players. I hope to clear up …
Most Fantasy Strength of Schedule (SOS) rankings utilize data points from the previous seasons defensive fantasy points allowed to determine who will have the easy or hard schedule in the upcoming season.
