Fantasy Football: The Top 10 Quarterbacks You Should Target

1) Drew Brees, New Orleans. In most leagues, passing yards and touchdowns are the two most important stats for quarterbacks. Sure, it is nice to have a rushing quarterback but I would not trade 1,000 or more passing yards for 600 or so rushing yards. I want my quarterbacks to put up big numbers on a consistent basis, and Drew Brees does just that. Brees has over 5,000 yards passing in each of the last two seasons and over 40 touchdowns as well. The Saints’ running game could be better but Sean Payton and Brees pretty much like to run off the pass instead of the other way around. It seems sometimes the Saints only rush the ball when they have to.  The only worrisome thing with Drew Brees is some of his receivers are gone, but he still has Marques Colston, Lance Moore, and Jimmy Graham, so it isn’t that huge of a worry. This is the QB I want.
