Here is a good fantasy article on rookie RB’s we ran across. Forte of the Bears is somone we really like. You’ll also notice that Ryan Torain is mentioned. Lots of fantasy players, especially in keeper leagues, looking out for the return of Torain.

Q&A QB: Which Rookie Running Backs Are Worth Drafting?

That means he’ll be worth something in fantasy. He’s barely worth a RB3 spot right now, but taking him as a backup RB could end up being a smart move when Detroit faces weak run defenses. R…   Read more…

A guy we like ourselves is Forte from the Bears. He is a very talented runner and receiver. Do not be surprised if he ends up being the leading rusher out of all the rookie RB’s.

This is our first article on the Denver Bronco players we think will have a big impact on fantasy football this year.

Last year Cutler actually had a decent year as a fantasy player but this year he looks as though he could be a top five fantasty QB.

In any fantasy draft you have to look at the BIG TWO when drafting a QB and that is no different this year. Tom Brady and Peyton Manning are usually the top two QB’s you are going to look at, but this year there are a number of QB’s that could put up really big numbers. Since this site is about the Denver Broncos we will focus on our QB, Jay Cutler.

Last year Cutler threw for 20 TD’s, had one rushing TD, 3497 passing yards, and had 14 interceptions. Not a bad season, especially for a first year starter. And when you consider the injuries the Broncos had, Cutler’s season was even more impressive. But what is really amazing is that he played most, if not all, of the season with Type 1 Diabetes, which was NOT diagnosed. The fact that he could even play football without treatment is incredible.

So why do we think he has a chance to be a top five fantasy QB? Well first of all it is NOT because we are Bronco fans. It is because he has the talent, he has the talent around him, and the Broncos look like they are going to be much more aggressive in the passing game this year.

Let’s take a look at the talent Cutler has. He has a tremendous arm and can make EVERY throw. He is very accurate. He is tough and reads defenses well. On top of that he is very mobile so you can expect two to four rushing TD’s by Cutler this year.

Now let’s look at the talent around him. It starts first with Brandon Marshall, one of the top young receivers in football. Marshall is almost impossible to cover. He has exceptional hands, he runs GREAT after the catch, and he is determined to prove he is one of the NFL’s best. He will not play for at least the first two games… unless the NFL reduces his suspension. With Marshall in the game the Broncos have someone that defenses have no answer for.

But having one good WR is not the key. You need more than that. The Broncos have a number of playmakers. One of them being the young rookie Eddie Royal. He is going to cause defenses a lot of problems this year. Besides Royal Denver also has Stokely at the slot and two terrific receiving TE’s. Both Nate Jackson and Tony Scheffler are going to be difficult matchups for defenses this year. Look for Denver to throw a lot out of their two TE formation.

And maybe the biggest reason Cutler is set to have a great year is because Denver is going to throw the ball. When you have the talent that Cutler has, weapons to throw to like Marshall, Royal, Stokely, Nate Jackson, and Scheffler you have some serious receiving talent. Mike Shanahan will run the ball, but look for Denver to be extremely aggressive with the passing attack.

If Cutler stays healthy look for 25 to 30 TD passes, 3800 to 4200 passing yards, two to four rushing TD’s, and around 12 to 15 interceptions. Those numbers should be enough to put Cutler in the top five or close to it at the QB position.
