Backs | Wide Receivers | Tight Ends | Kickers | Team Defenses
Pre-season is almost here, and for the next few months your whole mission in life is to find an edge for your fantasy football draft. We give a lot of knowledge across this site, but these cheat sheets are the distilled essence of it all.
Hey, the freaks know that you shouldn't take someone's cheat sheet as the word of god. We know it's just an opinion, and that's why we give you five opinions from experienced and diverse viewpoints.
We rank on a straight performance scoring system, so you TD-only and TD-distance leaguers might want to take this with a grain of salt. For the rest, read on.

1 |
Jeff Wilkins |
Explosive offense and easy
schedule. |
|
2 |
Jason Elam |
Ability to kick field goals
from 50+ is why he is ranked so high. |
|
3 |
Adam Vinatieri |
Don't forget about him when
all other owners will. Consistent and the offense is solid. |
|
4 |
Ryan Longwell |
Packers will be in a tone of
high scoring games. |
|
5 |
Mike Vanderjagt |
Being the kicker on the best
offense in the league has it’s advantages but the Colts score too many
touchdowns. |
|
6 |
John Hall |
Joe Gibbs kickers are always
worth owning since they move ball but have a tendency of getting stuck
in the red zone. |
|
7 |
Sebastian Janikowski |
New offensive weapons means
many more opportunities. |
|
8 |
Jeff Reed |
Offense is solid and Reed is
very accurate. |
|
9 |
Josh Brown |
Seahawks are solid in the
red zone but Brown makes a lot of fields from outside the 30. |
|
10 |
Mike Nugent |
Nugent is one of the most
accurate kickers ever to come out of college. |
