2014 Fantasy Football + ‘Nauty Babes Guide
Quarterback Rankings 2014
1. Peyton Manning, Denver Broncos
Manning broke two NFL records in 2013 with 55 passing touchdowns and 5,477 passing yards, and
has no choice but to continue his success with powerful receiving options Demaryius Thomas and
Julius Thomas in the backfield.
2. Drew Brees, New Orleans Saints
Brees has thrown for over 5,000 yards in his last three consecutive seasons, accompanied by a total of 128 passing touchdowns during this period of time; not to mention he has the No. 1 ranked tight
end, Jimmy Graham to play catch with.
Olivia Munn, WAG of Aaron Rodgers
3. Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers
Armed with one of the top receiving duos in Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb, Rodgers remains a top
three-ranked quarterback and is in his prime.
8. Colin Kaepernick, San Francisco 49ers Kaepernick, who is not shy to run the ball in for a
touchdown himself, has many weapons on the receiving side also, in the likes of tight end Vernon
Davis and wide receivers Michael Crabtree and Anquan Boldin.
4. Cam Newton, Carolina Panthers Entering his fourth NFL season, Newton offers both mobility and expert passing skills, earning him a ranking among the elite NFL quarterbacks
9. Tony Romo, Dallas Cowboys Romo can always be counted on for plenty of
passing yards and touchdowns per season, and has top-ranked wide receiver, Dez Bryant and tight
end Jason Witten as red zone threats
5. Andrew Luck, Indianapolis Colts Making his way into top-five quarterback status in his second NFL year, Luck entering his third season
should continue to thrive in 2014
10. Nick Foles, Philadelphia Eagles Never missing a beat, Foles threw 27 passing
touchdowns, and only one interceptions in the 10 games he started for his team last season, and
should continue to be productive in 2014.
6. Matthew Stafford, Detroit Lions Stafford has one of the strongest arms in the NFL and he should continue to throw upwards of 5,000 yards per season, especially with the top-ranked
wide receiver, Calvin Johnson at his disposal.
11. Russell Wilson, Seattle Seahawks Entering his third season in the NFL, Wilson, who is also mobile, will continue to grow along with his
young offense, and top-ranked defensive to keep him protected.
7. Tom Brady, New England Patriots No matter the circumstances, Brady remains a solid
option at quarterback, averaging 4,540 passing yards and 32 per year over his past five seasons.
12. Robert Griffin III, Washington Redskins Look for RGIII, who should be completely healthy
as he starts 2014, to rebound with a new head coach, and the addition of wide receiver DeSean Jackson to work in tandem with Pierre Garcon.
13. Matt Ryan, Atlanta Falcons
14. Philip Rivers, San Diego Chargers
15. Jay Cutler, Chicago Bears
16. Ben Roethlisberger, Pittsburgh Steelers
17. Andy Dalton, Cincinnati Bengals
18. Eli Manning, New York Giants
19. Josh McCown, Buccaneers
20. Ryan Tannehill, Miami Dolphins
21. Joe Flacco, Baltimore Ravens
22. Alex Smith, Kansas City Chiefs
23. Carson Palmer, Arizona Cardinals
Lauren Tannehill, Wife of Ryan Tannehill
Lauren Tannehill, Wife of Ryan Tannehill
24. Geno Smith/Michael Vick, New York Jets
(competing for start)
25. E.J. Manuel, Buffalo Bills
26. Jake Locker, Tennessee Titans
27. Brian Hoyer/Johnny Manziel, Cleveland
Browns (competing for start)
28. Ryan Fitzpatrick, Houston Texans
29. Matt Cassel/Teddy Bridgewater,
Minnesota Vikings (competing for start)
30. Chad Henne/Blake Bortles, Jacksonville
Jaguars (competing for start)
31. Sam Bradford, St. Louis Rams
32. Matt Schaub, Oakland Raiders
Running Back Rankings 2014
1. Jamaal Charles, Kansas City Chiefs With 1980 total yards, and 19 rushing and receiving touchdowns, on a run-first team, Charles will be a
force to stop in 2014.
2. LeSean McCoy, Philadelphia Eagles McCoy remains a top running back in 2014 coming
off of 314 touches and over 2,000 combined rushing and receiving yards.
3. Adrian Peterson, Minnesota Vikings
Peterson, who is loaded with talent, is to be involved in the passing game this season, which
only adds to his fantasy stock.
Charmaine Glock, WAG of Marshall Lynch
4. Matt Forte, Chicago Bears Averaging over 1,000 rush yards per year in his past six seasons, and being a key player in the
passing game, Forte will continue to be a valuable asset to fantasy teams.
9. Arian Foster, Houston Texans Foster has the ability to make great plays both
rushing and receiving, and should be fresh and ready after healing from his back surgery to tear up the
field once again for his team.
5. Marshawn Lynch, Seattle Seahawks Lynch has been in true beast-mode for his last
three seasons with the Seahawks, and he is incredible in the end zone, averaging 11.7
touchdowns per game.
10. Alfred Morris, Washington Redskins Morris continues to impress with RB1 numbers,
rushing for 1,000-plus yards since his rookie season in 2012, and is ready to be involved in the passing
game this year.
7. DeMarco Murray, Dallas Cowboys Murray remains a solid fantasy option as the lead
back for the Cowboys, coming off of his best season yet nearly 1,400 total yards and 10
touchdowns.
11. Zac Stacy, St. Louis Rams Stacy, with 973 rush yards and seven touchdowns,
quickly dominated the lead back duties for the Rams last season in his rookie year, so there’s no reason to
believe anything should change in 2014
8. Doug Martin, Tampa Bay Buccaneers Entering his third year in the NFL, Martin who is healed from his 2013 shoulder injury is ready to
resume the lead role for his team, and is definitely capable of repeating the RB1 numbers of his
rookie season.
12. Le’Veon Bell, Pittsburgh Steelers Making his rookie debut for the Steelers in 2013, Bell
proved his worth to the team with 860 rush yards and eight touchdowns during the 13 games he
started, deeming a worthy fantasy option for 2014.
13. Montee Ball, Denver Broncos
14. Giovani Bernard, Cincinnati Bengals
15. Reggie Bush, Detroit Lions
16. Ryan Mathews, San Diego Chargers
17. Frank Gore, San Francisco 49ers
18. C.J. Spiller, Buffalo Bills
19. Andre Ellington, Arizona Cardinals
20. Ben Tate, Cleveland Browns
21. Rashad Jennings, New York Giants
22. Shane Vereen, New England Patriots
Lilit Avagyan, WAG of Reggie Bush

23. Knowshon Moreno, Miami Dolphins
24. Trent Richardson, Indianapolis Colts
25. Ray Rice, Baltimore Ravens
26. Chris Johnson, New York Jets
27. Steven Jackson, Atlanta Falcons
28. Fred Jackson Spiller, Buffalo Bills
29. Joique Bell, Detroit Lions
30. Bishop Sankey, Tennessee Titans
31. Pierre Thomas, New Orleans Saints
32. Stevan Ridley, New England Patriots
Wide Receiver Rankings 2014
1. Calvin Johnson, Detroit Lions Year after year, Johnson, otherwise known as “Megatron”, puts up monster numbers, clearly earning his title as the best wide receiver in the NFL, which should remain par for the course this
season.
2. Demaryius Thomas, Denver Broncos Catching from the top quarterback in the NFL,
secures Thomas’s role as an elite wide receiver, who will no doubt repeat his stellar productivity of
his past two seasons.
3. A.J. Green, Cincinnati Bengals Averaging 1,277 yards per season over his first
three years in the NFL, is incredibly impressive, and there’s no reason to believe 2014 will be any
different.
4. Julio Jones, Atlanta Falcons Jones, when ready to resume his duties in full this
season should be back on track for another 1,000-plus yard season as he begins just his fourth
year in the NFL.
Miranda Brooke, WAG of A.J Green
5. Brandon Marshall, Chicago Bears Marshall, who has topped 1,000 receiving yards in his last seven seasons with the NFL, just signed a
new contract, which should keep him plenty motivated to prove his worth in 2014.
9. Antonio Brown, Pittsburgh Steelers Brown had a fabulous season last year with 1,499
yards and eight touchdowns, so don’t look for him to stop putting up WR1 numbers anytime soon.
6. Dez Bryant, Dallas Cowboys
Entering his prime and out to prove his value on a contract year is Bryant, has averaged 1,181 yards
and 4.3 touchdowns per game in his past three seasons.
10. Vincent Jackson, Tampa Bay Buccaneers Jackson continues to be reliable each year, totaling
over 2,600 yards and 15 touchdowns in his past two seasons with the Buccaneers, and the signing
of quarterback Josh McCown should do nothing to hurt his stock.
7. Jordy Nelson, Green Bay Packers Nelson should remain a top fantasy option at the
hands of Aaron Rodgers, and a 1,000 or more yards, with double-digit touchdowns is easily
within sight for 2014.
11. Alshon Jeffery, Chicago Bears Jeffery is just emerging as a serious threat to
opposing teams, and is primed to put up numbers similar to last season’s 1,421 yards and seven
touchdowns.
8. Josh Gordon, Cleveland Browns (suspension pending)
A season-long suspension is still looming overhead but if Gordon can fight it and return in 2014, he’s more than capable of WR1 numbers, considering he had 1,646 yards under multiple quarterbacks in
just 14 games last year.
12. Randall Cobb, Green Bay Packers Skilled in both kick returns and receiving, Cobb is a
key asset to the team, and with a healthy Aaron Rodgers returning, he should be ready for another
productive fantasy season.
13. Andre Johnson, Houston Texans
14. Larry Fitzgerald, Arizona Cardinals
15. DeSean Jackson, Washington Redskins
16. Keenan Allen, San Diego Chargers
17. Victor Cruz, New York Giants
18. Pierre Garcon, Washington Redskins

Tight End Rankings 2014
1. Jimmy Graham, New Orleans Saints
Graham was targeted a whopping 136 times last season. He caught 63 percent of the passes thrown
his way, putting up over 1,200 yards and 16 touchdowns.
2. Julius Thomas, Denver Broncos
Thomas was most definitely a product of Peyton Manning last season. He put up highs in catches (65), yards (788) and touchdowns (12). With Eric Decker out of the mix, Thomas should see an
increase in targets
3. Vernon Davis, San Francisco 49ers Davis averaged a whopping 16.3 yards per
reception in 2013 and tallied a total every four times he caught the ball.
4. Rob Gronkowski, New England Patriots
He's missed 14 games over the past two seasons, but is averaging a whopping 79.7 yards and about one touchdown per outing since the start of the
2011 season.
Erin Heatherton, WAG of Jordan Cameron
5. Jordan Cameron, Cleveland Browns He was a dynamic playmaker for the multitude of
quarterbacks thrown out there last season, catching 80 passes and posting a ridiculous 73.4
reception percentage.
9. Jordan Reed, Washington Redskins Reed got off to a tremendous start last season as
a rookie before going down with an injury. He tallied 45 receptions for 499 yards and three
scores in nine games.
6. Jason Witten, Dallas Cowboys Always a constant, Witten will consistently find himself among the top five or six fantasy tight
ends in a given season. He has put up at least 850 receiving yards in each of the last seven seasons.
10. Kyle Rudolph, Minnesota Vikings If Teddy Bridgewater wins the starting job, we can
expect this Notre Dame product to have a huge season.
7. Greg Olsen, Carolina Panthers Iit appears Cam Newton will have to rely a tad
more on Olsen in 2014. He caught over 71 percent of the passes thrown to him for 816 yards and six
scores in 2013.
11. Martellus Bennett, Chicago Bears Bennett broke out big time with Josh McCown and
Jay Cutler last season. He put up career highs in receptions (65), yards (759) and tied a career high
with five touchdowns.
8. Dennis Pitta, Baltimore Ravens Pitta's injury handcuffed the Ravens big time last season. Now fully healthy, expect him to continue
to be a consistent option.
12. Delanie Walker, Tennessee Titans Walker was always overshadowed by in San
Francisco, but it was apparent that he would make an impact when given the chance to start. That happened last season with Tennessee. Walker
caught 60 passes for 571 yards and six touchdowns.
13. Charles Clay, Miami Dolphins
14. Antonio Gates, San Diego Chargers
15. Heath Miller, Pittsburgh Steelers
16. Ladarius Green, San Diego Chargers
17. Zach Ertz, Philadelphia Eagles
18. Coby Fleener, Indianapolis Colts
19. Dwayne Allen, Indianapolis Colts
20. Eric Ebron, Detroit Lions
21. Owen Daniels, Baltimore Ravens

23. Garrett Graham, Houston Texans
24. Jared Cook, St. Louis Rams
25. Austin Seferian-Jenkins, Tampa Bay
Buccaneers
26. Jace Amaro, New York Jets
27. Scott Chandler, Buffalo Bills
28. Jermichael Finley, Free Agent
29. Andrew Quarless, Green Bay Packers
30. Jermaine Gresham, Cincinnati Bengals
Defense Rankings 2014
1. Seattle Seahawks This is a no-brainer. Seattle gave up an average of
just 14.4 points per game last season.
2. Carolina Panthers The Panthers have two elite defensive ends in
Greg Hardy and Charles Johnson who combined for 26 sacks in 2013.
3. San Francisco 49ers
Their value depends on the outcome of Aldon Smith situation. They allowed the third-fewest points in the NFL last season, but ranked in the
bottom half of the league in sacks.
4. Denver Broncos WIth Von Miller back in the mix and the addition of DeMarcus Ware, Denver's defense is going to be a major threat. They immediately become one of the
best pass-rushing tandems in the league.
5. Cincinnati Bengals They put up the 10th-most sacks in the NFL and ranked fifth in scoring defense last season. This came despite Geno Atkins injury. The addition of Darqueze Dennard will also help Cincinnati's pass
defense.
6. Arizona Cardinals The losses of Dansby and Washington indicates that Arizona might take a step back in defense. Also John Abraham is getting older. Arizona still boasts one of the top secondaries in the game.
Erin Heatherton, WAG of Jordan Cameron (Cleveland Browns)
7. Kansas City Chiefs It's all going to depend on continued pressure
from pass-rush threats Justin Houston and Tamba Hali, who combined for 22 sacks a season ago. A
lot of their success will depend on cornerback Brandon Flowers.
10. New England Patriots The Patriots ranked in the top 10 in scoring
defense last year and put up the fifth-most sacks in the league. Chandler Jones led all Patriots with
11.5 sacks. The addition of Darrelle Revis at cornerback will also help New England's defense.
8. St. Louis Rams They picked up Aaron Donald at the 2014 NFL
draft. He's going to team up with Robert Quinn, Chris Long and Michael Brockers to form a
dominating defensive front.
11. Tampa Bay Buccaneers If the Buccaneers can get a decent pass-rushthey
will be in a good position. That's where the addition of Michael Johnson comes into play. He's
two years removed from putting up 11.5 sacks.
9. Buffalo Bills Mario Williams is an asset to this team. Williams tallied 13 sacks and led a trio with Jerry Hughes and Kyle Williams who put up double-digit sacks
each in 2013. Overall, Buffalo ranked second in the NFL with 57 sacks last year.
12. New Orleans Saints Rob Ryan has done a tremendous job building a defense and the Saints should be rewarded for
that in 2014.
13. Houston Texans
14. Baltimore Ravens
15. Cleveland Browns
16. Pittsburgh Steelers
17. New York Giants
18. Philadelphia Eagles
19. Detroit Lions
