Look, Quarterbacks are the highest averaging players you can pick (some of them end up averaging over 20 points per game, which is alot!!).
So, you pick them early in the draft, right?
No.
Ok then, late in the draft?
No.
Middle?
Well sort of.
You don't want your quarterback to be your first pick because then there is a pretty good chance you won't be able to get two great running backs or wide receivers on your team ( very valuable to have 4 -> 2 great RB's & 2 great WR's). You don't want to pick one to late either because the chances will be a lot slimmer of you getting a great quarterback. This is because everyone takes them in like the 3rd or 4th round which is where you will be picking your RB's & WR's. If you can, I would draft a QB in the 5th round. Don't expect to be getting Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, Matt Ryan, or even Drew Brees. You'll have a better chance of getting someone like Derek Carr, Andrew Luck, and Ben Roethlisberger in these rounds.
So, Who should I pick?
Here are my EarlyTop 15 Fantasy QB's for 2017:
1.Tom Brady
2.Matt Ryan
3.Drew Brees
4.Aaron Rodgers
5.Derek Carr
6.Ben Roethlisberger
7.Cam Newton
8.Kirk Cousins
9. Andrew Luck
10.Dak Prescott
11.Jameis Winston
12.Matthew Stafford
13.Carson Palmer
14.Phillip Rivers
15.Eli Manning
There are a couple more QB's including Andy Dalton, Carson Wentz, and Marcus Mariota, Tony Romo (if he decides to play) who could do well this season too. I wouldn't be surprised if Carson Wentz had a break out season this year too with all the great offseason moves the Eagles have made, but I'll talk about that some other time.
Any of the QB's listed would be a decent draft pick for your fantasy team, especially if you got any of my top 4 in the 5th round. Otherwise, these guys could be fantastic backup QB's on your roster as well
