2010 Green Bay Packers Fantasy Football Preview

What a perfect time to be doing my previews on this particular division! Favre and his inability to make a decision is finally not a nuisance… I am as shocked as you are.  This time yesterday this post was going to be about how the Packers were the only team that could upset the Vikings for the division title.  Now it is pretty much a coin flip as to whether they will be the front runners for the division.  Aaron Rodgers has matured to an elite Quarterback in this league and it should be fun to watch as he aims for super bowl rings.  As long as the defense can keep playing at a high level we should see the Packers make a serious playoff run (even with Favre still wearing purple on Sundays).  I love Packers players for fantasy this year because they are on a consistent offense that has all the tools it needs for success, there is very little risk.

Fantasy Relevant Players

Aaron Rodgers – This is my number one QB this year.  He will have similar passing stats to Brees but toss in a few rushing TD’s and a small handful of yardage to put Rodgers over the top.  I think you can wait on QBs till round 8 or so this year, but if he falls past the first couple of picks in the second round you’ve got to scoop him up!

Ryan Grant – I have seen him falling to early in the third round in some mock drafts.  This is a ridiculous bargain for a guy that should be top 10 in points at the end of the year.

Greg Jennings – Despite his streaky production last year, he is a value pick.  He is one of the best of the tier 2 wide outs this season and he really shouldn’t fall past the third round.
