Bold Prediction: 2010′s Best NFL Fantasy Lineups

With the fantasy season right around the corner, it’s time to throw out some bold predictions on what we’ll see in 2010.

Every season brings us some surprises, and this next one will certainly be no different. While it would be easy to just stick in the top rated players at every position, it simply never turns out that way.

Let’s get the elephant out of the room first.

These predictions will not exactly match the rankings we have for competing teams here at dynastyleaguefootball.com for two reasons.

First, this article is written from one person’s perspective. Our rankings are compiled with several opinions factored in.

More importantly, the competing team rankings we have are NOT simply for this season, they’re for a team competing in the next two or three seasons as well.

With that out of the way, let’s take a look at what the best lineup of 2010 could look like.

2 RB
3 WR
