2016 Fantasy Football Quarterback Rankings

Our formula ranks fantasy football quarterbacks by analyzing the schedule and forecasting performance.

The big question this fantasy football season is should you draft Tom Brady? Brady is still facing a four game suspension to start the 2016 NFL season.  He’s still a top tier QB and if you want to win come playoff time, get Tom Brady.

We break down our QB rankings into tiers and you can see how they all stack up in ranking them all below.  We give you rankings along with the best and worst weeks for that QB in 2016 plus their bye week.
