Positions: QBs | RBs | WRs | TEs

Here are the cumulative results of the voting that took place at the FF Today board in August. The Geeks were asked to rank their top 20 QBs. The rankings are calculated using traditional polling measures so that a board consensus can be reached. A big thank you goes to Kirk Hollis for his help on this feature.

Very easy to see the tiers of value for this position as 1-2, 3-5, and 7-9 being definite tiers with McNair really being a tier of his own at #6. There is very much a consensus top twelve and then value drops off sharply as we get into fantasy "back-ups".

Beyond the top 25, there doesn't appear to be much value according to the votes. Surprises: Vick falling to #5 surprised me some what... I thought we would rank him higher based upon potential, but the hype didn't really make an impact in his case. The only other mild surprise was Josh McCown getting the votes he did with so many injuries in Arizona. Overall, a great job, guys! Hope this proves to be a helpful resource for your drafts.
