Flick's Top 10 Fantasy Quarterback's

The rankings are based on a standard scoring system as follows:

• Touchdown - 6 points
• Passing Yards - 1 point for every 25/50 yards
• Two-Point Conversion - 2 points

1. Drew Brees - New Orleans
*Brees threw for 5,069 yards and 34 touchdowns last year and there's no reason to think he won't put up similar numbers in '09 with no major personnel changes*

2008 stats: 16 games 413 comp 635 att 5,069 yds 34 TD 17 INT

2. Tom Brady - New England
*There's still some questions about his return from a serious knee injury, but it's very hard to discount a three-time Super Bowl winner especially when he's throwing to Randy Moss and had 50 touchdowns in 2007*

2008 stats: DNP - Injury

3. Kurt Warner - Arizona
*Some have Warner ranked lower on their top quarterback lists which totally mystifies me. His 30 touchdowns last year was second in the league and he's still throwing to the likes of Fitzgerald, Boldin, and Breaston with very little running game*

2008 stats: 16 games 402 comp 599 att 4,582 yds 30 TD 14 INT

4. Phillip Rivers - San Diego
*Rivers quietly led the league in TD passes (along with Brees) with 34 in 2008. With Tomlinson and Sprowles returning to the backfield Rivers may not air it out like some other QB's but will still get his fantasy owners major points*

2008 stats: 16 games 312 comp 478 att 4,004 yds 34 TD 11 INT

5. Peyton Manning - Indianapolis
* Losing his long-time wide reciever Marvin Harrison won't slow Manning down much with Reggie Wayne and emerging receiver Anthony Gonzalez returning*

2008 stats: 16 games 371 comp 555 att 4,002 yds 27 TD 12 INT

6. Aaron Rodgers - Green Bay
*After an impressive first season as a NFL starter in which he threw for over 4,000 yards and 28 TD's, Rodgers will be looking to improve on those lofty numbers*

2008 stats: 16 games 341 comp 536 att 4,038 yds 28 TD 13 INT

7. Donovan McNabb - Philadelphia
*McNabb is still without a major big-play receiver but has a strong underrated group to work with. It remains to be seen if Michael Vick will have an impact in the offense.*

2008 stats: 16 games 345 comp 571 att 3,916 yds 23 TD 11 INT

8. Tony Romo - Dallas
*He lost T.O. but that may be a good thing. Now that he won't be forcing balls his way, Romo can spread it around to Roy Williams, Patrick Crayton, and Jason Witten*

2008 stats: 13 games 276 comp 451 att 3,448 yds 26 TD 14 INT

9. Matt Schaub - Houston
*When your throwing to the likes of Andre Johnson and Steve Slayton, Schaub may be a solid pick this year.*

2008 stats: 11 games 251 comp 380 att 3,043 yds 15 TD 10 INT

10. Jay Cutler - Chicago
*After the dramatic crybaby forced Denver to trade him to the Bears, Cutler's value to fantasy owners is kind of a question mark He threw for over 4500 yards last year but with Devin Hester being his number one option to start the season, I'd be a big skeptical to take Cutler unless he can make his receivers better which is possible. *

2008 stats: 16 games 384 comp 616 att 4,525 yds 25 TD 18 INT
