Fantasy Football Quarterbacks: Top 15 To Target In 2015

Russell Wilson was surprisingly (to me) good last season when it came to fantasy production. He finished as one of the top quarterbacks in fantasy football last season and owners were really rewarded for his ability to get out of the pocket and make plays.
Wilson will have all his targets back this season and will also add Pro Bowl tight end Jimmy Graham to the offense, which should spike Wilson’s passing numbers and the Seahawks offense.
Graham provides a large, fast target that Russell has never had so far in his career, and I think Wilson will be able to take the next step in his game with the utilization of Graham and another year in the NFL in the same offense.
Add Graham to a running game headlined by Marshawn Lynch and you could have a pretty dangerous offense to add to what may be one of the best defenses in NFL history.
Look for Wilson to continue to improve this season and his passing numbers to spike. I like him as a top-5 fantasy quarterback that should be taken around round 3 in standard leagues.
