Philip Rivers QB 2008 Fantasy Football Preview

Posted by webmaster on August 2nd, 2008

Philip Rivers is a guy you can take a look at in the later rounds and still get a quality starter. Rivers will be one of the top 10 quarterbacks this season. He won’t be number 1, or even number 5 for that matter, but he will turn in a solid season and is truly a low risk selection. If you are waiting to grab a could quarterbacks late, look his way. He won’t be a glamorous pick, but he will get the job done holding down the fort at QB for you, while your other studs light it up.

Aaron Rogers QB 2008 Fantasy Football Preview

Aaron Rogers will be an excellent pickup this season. Don’t expect him to lose his starting job, he is the man in Green Bay, and will be come the start of the season. He has inherited an excellent offensive team, with top notch receivers. Additionally, they found a running game last year, and have an outstanding defense.

I don’t see Rogers going off the board until around the 10th round. To grab a potential top 10 QB in the 10th round puts him into sleeper status for us. If your game plan is to wait on a quarterback, Rogers is worth keeping an eye on. Be sure to draft another capable quarterback to go with Rogers to hedge your bet, but I think by midseason, Rogers is going to find his stride and be putting up big numbers. Remember, he played very well in the one game against the Cowboys last season, that was not a fluke!

Felix Jones RB 2008 Fantasy Football Profile

Felix Jones is a rookie who will stay under the radar for a little while, but will get playing time and put up some decent numbers. Expect him to play a role similar to the role of Julius Jones, and share carries with Barber.

Jones will be a good late round pickup this season, with big upside if Marion Barber gets injured. He’s worth a flyer pick in all leagues, a must draft for the guy who used a first round pick on Barber.

Jeremy Shockey TE 2008 Fantasy Football Preview

Jeremy Shockey moved up our rankings here with a change of scenery to New Orleans. Reunited with the man whom he had his best season for, and stepping into a high powered offense looking to get their tight end more involved, Shockey has huge potential coming into this season. He hasn’t had this much potential since he came into the league.

I like Shockey a lot, and think the trade will pay off big for the Saints. Shockey presents a true number one option at tight end, with some big games to come. You can probably nab him in the middle rounds somewhere this year, maybe into the 7th or 8th rounds. He’s an excellent pick there, and sure to deliver this season.

Lamont Jordan RB 2008 Fantasy Football Rankings

LaMont Jordan is a bit of a late round sleeper pick this year. Going to New England added tremendous value to Jordan. He will get some carries every game, and if the injury bug hits the running backs of New England again, Jordan could step into an excellent starting position. Take a look at Jordan with a late round flyer.
