Silva's Best-Ball QB Rankings
Quarterback Rankings
1. Aaron Rodgers – Has finished No. 1 or 2 among fantasy quarterbacks in 7 of the past 10 years.
2. Tom Brady – Entering his age-41 season. Led NFL in passing yards per game (286.1) at age 40.
3. Russell Wilson – Top-3 fantasy QB in 3 of last 4 years. Led NFL in touchdown passes (34) in ’17.
4. Drew Brees – Ceiling lowered in 2017, but still led NFL in completion rate (72.0) and YPA (8.1).
5. Cam Newton – Top-4 fantasy QB in 5-of-7 seasons. How will Norv Turner fare as Newton’s OC?
6. Deshaun Watson – In Weeks 2-8, outscored all QBs by 6.0 PPG (!). Has torn ACL twice since ‘14.
7. Carson Wentz – Last year’s overall QB2 before Week 15 ACL/LCL tear. Questionable for Week 1.
8. Marcus Mariota – Easy bounce-back QB under Matt LaFleur with positive TD regression coming.
9. Matthew Stafford – Top-10 fantasy QB in 4 of last 5 years with arrow up on pass-catcher corps.
10. Jimmy Garoppolo – Was QB7 in Weeks 13-17 with little help. Shredded Bears, Jags, and Rams.
11. Ben Roethlisberger – Ben has quietly been a top-8 fantasy QB just once in the last ten years.
12. Jared Goff – Broke out as last year’s QB12 with room for growth in year two with Sean McVay.
13. Philip Rivers – High-floor option has finished as a top-12 fantasy QB in 8 of the last 10 seasons.
14. Matt Ryan – Good LRQB bounce-back bet after getting hit hard by 2016-to-2017 regression.
15. Kirk Cousins – Landing spot is everything. Best-case scenario: Minnesota with Thielen & Diggs.

The Jared Goff train needs to pump the brakes a bit, methinks. I like him.....but its not like he was unreal and the Sophomore Slump is a real thing. And lol that Jimmy G is already a top 10 QB.
The sports media and their hyperbole. I think Kirk can be a top 12 QB with Minnesota, JMO.
any list that has Newton top 5 isnt worth the screen its written on
This needs to be included in the OP.
* These rankings are fluid and subject to significant change as NFL transactions affect player outlooks and I do more research and alter projections.
* These rankings have a 0.5 PPR lean and are presently intended for best-ball leagues.
* These rankings are better used as a rough draft or guideline than a bible.
