Pre-season Rankings 2012 (#3-4)

3. Rainbow Warriors

QB
Aaron Rodgers
RB
Adrian Peterson
Frank Gore
Rashad Jennings
Toby Gerhart
Ryan Williams
Isaac Redman
WR
Brandon Lloyd
Antonio Brown
DeSean Jackson
Denarius Moore
Kenny Britt
TE/K/DEF
Rob Gronkowski
Sebastian Janikowski
Houston Defense

Jeff makes a smart move and makes his first pick count with Rodgers.  With QBs scoring such ridiculous numbers in fantasy now, Rodgers was definitely the best player on the board at pick number 1.  He's even smarter not to have a backup QB to waste a spot on his roster.  But having chosen Gronk so early left him with few RB choices to work with.  Peterson and Gore have big question marks next to them - they do have potential, though.  Having Jennings helps, as well as a few sleeper RBs, but he's making some big gambles at that position for the sake of an awesome QB.  I'm guessing at least one of those gambles will pay off.  Also, I'm sure Rodgers will make up for any lack-of-scoring the rest of his team might pull.  His WRs are pretty well-rounded - nothing flashy, but solid.


4. Spider Pig

QB
Tom Brady
Peyton Manning
RB
Jamaal Charles
Darren Sproles
DeAngelo Williams
Kevin Smith
WR
Larry Fitzgerald
Mike Wallace
Miles Austin
Pierre Garcon
Greg Little
Anquan Boldin
TE/K/DEF
Vernon Davis
Matt Bryant
Chicago Defense

Luke's got the best QB duo in our league, but as David Li learned last year, a QB on the bench won't get you any points.  And while his WRs are strong, propelling his team up in the rankings, his RBs are suspect, preventing it from going much higher.  Jamaal Charles is questionable due to injury, Darren Sproles doesn't have much upside, DeAngelo will be splitting time with Stewart, and who knows what the Lions' RB situation will be.  If his RB situation turns around and proves to be productive, he can definitely be a threat.  Especially with pretty boy Brady.
