In order to save my brain from exploding, I’m going to post my weekly rankings in two sets: QB/WR/TE and then RB/K/DST. Most likely, these will be posted on Wednesdays and Thursdays respectively. It’s always a relatively frustrating endeavor that’s useless exactly four days later, but weekly rankings are a very important part to any owner, reader or website.
Normally, things won’t be this crazy, with me posting the rankings to RB/K/DST after one game is already played (DAL/NYG), but several factors really screwed up my week:
It’s the perfect storm to make these rankings late!
These rankings are for non-PPR leagues, with four points for passing TDs. Big thanks to the guys at Four-Downs.com for supplying the rankings tool! There are several teams with great passing matchups, like the Falcons, Panthers and Texans. And there are also several teams that are looking at stout pass defenses, like Bengals, Browns and Dolphins.
Just remember that you don’t necessarily want to sit your stars for someone with a great matchup. More often than not, gambles like that do not pay off.
By the way, you have to wonder if the Saints have some fire in them this season, much like the 2008 Patriots had in them after they got caught video-taping other teams. I like Drew Brees coming out big in the 2012 season opener.
And please check out our rankings for running backs, kickers and defense/special teams. After this week, things should be much easier and smoother!
You will need Flash in order to view the rankings, which means you may not be able to view it from your smartphone.

Nice Lions fan photo. Im a life long (suffering) fan. Raiders get a Darth Vader and Bane Mask. We get fuzzy toy lions and Pee-Wee shoulder pads. Thank god for M. Mayhew and Jim Schwartz. Has RG3 shown enough to be rated 7 ? Its full speed, go time now. No more Vannilla...
I usually go with your rankings for who to start/sit but your killing me with having my 2 QB's next to each other! Rivers or Cutler?
I REALLY like Cutler this week -- and Brandon Marshall. This could be a huge week for both of them.
New to your site and have been reading regularly. I can't help but think the Ravens are going to rattle Dalton and disrupt his connection with Green. Too bad, as Green as shown a real attraction to the leather. Thinking about putting Hillis in my flex position and starting Torrey Smith over Green.
Welcome aboard, Craig! I see what you're saying about Green, but sitting one of your top two/three picks in Week 1 is usually problematic. Give yourself the best chance to win. Get the best guys out there in Week 1, usually. That's my thought, at least. I wish you good luck! Come back and let me know how it works out, no matter what you choose to do. If you go against my opinion -- and you win, I'll be more than happy to congratulate you!
Yeah, I need to remind mysel of that. Green was my second pick, with Lynch not far behind. His back is giving me spasms.
