The quarterback position has been one of the deepest in the league in recent seasons, but one has to wonder … are we starting to see some erosion at the top? was plain dreadful over the final four weeks of the season, and he’ll be 39 when the 2015 campaign starts. won another for New England, but he’s no spring chicken either. In fact, he’ll be 38 in August. , 36, finished sixth in fantasy points among field generals and was unreliable at times. fans also endured disappointing numbers from younger veterans like , , , , and . While there is at least some promise in the potential of youngsters such as , , and , none of them are what the fantasy world would define as No. 1 quarterbacks. With that said, here’s a Ozzie Guillen Jersey look at my current top 10 quarterbacks heading into next season.You’ll find that it’s not as attractive as in recent seasons.1. , : In the dictionary under the word “consistent,” there’s a photo of Rodgers. Since 2009, he has finished no worse than second in fantasy points among quarterbacks five different times. The one season he failed to Adam Engel Jersey rank first or second was 2013, when he mi sed seven games due to a broken collarbone. Rodgers will be a first-round selection in 2015.2. , : Luck has increased his fantasy point production and rank among quarterbacks in each of his three NFL seasons. He broke out in 2014, putting up 4,761 pa sing yards, 43 total touchdowns and 351.74 fantasy points. At 25 and still not even in the prime of his career, the Stanford product is close in value to Rodgers and could join him as a first-round pick next season.3. , : Maybe I’m giving Brees the benefit of the doubt here, but he had a “bad” fantasy season in 2014 and still ranked sixth in fantasy points among quarterbacks. I also a sume the will look to improve their questionable offensive line in the offseason. Brees will have potential second-year breakout wideout back in his arsenal of offensive weapons, too. 4. , : I will a sume Manning’s return to the gridiron, and it’s hard not to keep him ranked among the five best players at his position. However, his drastic decline in the stat sheets in the final weeks of 2014 is cause for concern. He’ll also be 39 at the start of next season, so it’s hard to expect Manning to return to the sort of numbers he’s had in past campaigns.5. , : Wilson threw for a mere 20 touchdowns, but his 849 rushing yards and six rushing touchdowns catapulted him into the top three overall fantasy players last Carlton Fisk Jersey season. I’m projecting a rise in scoring pa ses and a decline in rushing yards for 2015, but Wilson will remain a valuable dual threat option at a position that has lost of bit of its luster among the top tiers.6. , : Brady was so bad in the first four weeks of last season that he was dropped in some leagues. Of course, we all know how things ended up … Brady went on to post 19-plus fantasy points in eight of his final 12 games and led the to a Jeff Keppinger Jersey title. If there’s one concern, however, it’s that Tom Terrific will be 38 years old when the 2015 campaign opens.7. , : Newton is coming off his worst statistical season at the pro level, but he had offseason ankle surgery and suffered multiple injuries during the regular season. He will be back at 100 percent in 2015, though, so I like his chances of moving back into the top 10 among fantasy quarterbacks. He has a chance to be one of the best fantasy draft bargains in the league.8. , : Ryan has failed to rank among the top-10 fantasy quarterbacks just once over the last five years, so he’s been consistent even if his numbers haven’t ranked him among the elite players at his position. The Boston College product is a solid target for those fantasy owners who decide to wait to select a field general until the middle rounds or later in their 2015 drafts.9. , : Did you know … Romo was the highest-scoring fantasy quarterback in the final four weeks of 2014? He’s almost always finished in the top 10 in points at his position, but he still doesn’t see the respect he deserves in fantasy circles. Owners should use that to their advantage in drafts, as Romo should fall into the middle to late rounds despite having starter’s value.10. , : Stafford’s numbers regre sed in 2014, as he finished behind the likes of and despite having some of the best weapons he’s had at the NFL level. Furthermore, he’s fallen out of the top two tiers among quarterbacks and will now enter 2015 as a risk-reward selection. Stafford is still a fantasy starter, but he’s not a must-start right now.Michael Fabiano is Ivan Nova Jersey an award-winning analyst on NFL.com and NFL Network and a member of the Sports Writers A sociation (FSWA) .
