Fantasy Football Quarterbacks: Top 15 To Target In 2015

Tom Brady is still fighting with the NFL and Roger Goodell to get his 4 game suspension reduced or eliminated which makes him a risky pick if your draft comes before the decision comes from the courts to ultimately decide what his punishment will be.
Once Brady does make it out onto the field I think that he should be a pretty good fantasy quarterback this season. The last few seasons his fantasy numbers have seriously dipped and he has lost his elite status that he once had in the fantasy world of quarterbacks.
I think this is mostly due to the fact that he hasn’t had the receivers to throw to with Gronkowski injured and Randy Moss gone with no real replacement as a true number one receiver.
Now that Gronkowski is 100% (and if he can stay that way) I think Brady’s numbers will start to climb again and he should be at least an above average fantasy quarterback.
If his suspension is upheld, I believe he will slip in a lot of drafts, and if you think he is worth it as your quarterback, I wouldn’t avoid taking him if does indeed slip a bit.
Look for him to go in the middle to late rounds depending on the size of your leagues.
