Positions: QBs | RBs | WRs | TEs

Here are the cumulative results of the voting that took place at the FF Today board August 13th -15th. 234 lists were compiled to formulate this year's Consensus Rankings. The FF Today Board members were asked to rank their top 20 QBs. The rankings are calculated using traditional polling measures so that a consensus can be reached. A big thank you to Kirk Hollis for his help on this feature.

Analysis: After the top two, the next three QBs (Brees, Bulger, & Brady) are almost interchangeable. It will come down to personal preference on those three, so study the differences in those guys carefully. The Geeks were a little higher on Tony Romo than I expected, and a bit cool on Vince Young - also a surprise. Big drop-offs after Favre and Grossman, so that's worth paying attention to. When looking for one of the better backup QBs, the choice between Roethlisberger, Cutler, and Favre is also going to be a tough one. A deep group of QBs this year.
