Looking at the list of the top fantasy performers so far this season, there are many unexpected names at the top of the list (and noticeably absent names that we were expecting). I guess what you’re looking for when you’re drafting your team is consistency though. And maybe the great players (like L.T.) will be back on top of the stats here soon, but after two weeks it hasn’t happened yet. Take a look at the top 5 at each position and tell me what you think (points in my league in parentheses). Expected top 5 in bold:
QB
Carson Palmer (65)
Tony Romo (58)
Tom Brady (52)
Jake Delhomme (50)
Derek Anderson (50)
Edgerrin James (28)
Marion Barber (28)
Frank Gore (27)
Lamont Jordan (25)
Joseph Addai (25)
WR
Steve Smith (41)
Chad Johnson (37)
Randy Moss (37)
Andre Johnson (35)
Plaxico Burress (35)
TE
Antonio Gates (24)
Kellen Winslow (17)
Benjamin Watson (15)
Jason Witten (14)
Dallas Clark (13)

I drafted Tom Brady 11th overall (my 2nd pick) because dude puts up solid 4,000+ yards every year. I also factored in Randy Moss and the other receiver additions.
So far I’m pretty happy, with the touchdowns being an added bonus!
With the exception of Derek Anderson, who won’t be on that list for many more weeks, I would have to say Edge is the shocker on that list.
Yeah, I have Romo, Gore and Gates that I drafted high, but I didn’t guess right on any of my fliers so far (I guess Romo could be a flyer but he was ranked pretty high though).
Well at least I’m 2-0. I do hate Anderson this week since he beat my Bengals though (they have no D).
