Fantasy Football Rankings Week 1: Top 3 Must-Start Quarterbacks

The first Sunday of the 2011 NFL season is literally hours away, and it’s coming down to the wire for fantasy football junkies all across the world.

Final rosters are going to be set sooner than you think, so you best get all the information you can on what players are sure to go off and which ones look like they could bomb.

Obviously, quarterback has to be a huge point of interest for most fantasy owners, and knowing which ones to start and which ones to sit will be key.

The best way to figure that out though is to know which quarterbacks are must-starts, meaning that they are guaranteed to go off.

Here are three quarterbacks I can guarantee you will go off on the first NFL Sunday of the year.

Mark Sanchez, Jets

If you have Mark Sanchez on your roster, you need to start him this week.

I can’t be any more clear than that, so if you don’t do it, you cannot come back and blame me. Sanchez is going against a week defense that has already lost a starting corner and has the other one questionable.

If that’s not a recipe for a lot of passing points and touchdowns, then I don’t know what is! 

Matt Schaub, Texans

Simply put, the Indianapolis Colts are really hurting right now and the Texans are out for blood. Without Peyton Manning, the Colts have no chance, and I think the Schaub and the Texans wouldn’t mind kicking them while they are down.

The Colts defense is patchy and is susceptible to giving up tons of yards in the air. Schaub is a must-start this week.

Tom Brady, Patriots

This should almost be obvious, so if it’s not, shame on you.

Brady vs. the Dolphins is going to be money for your fantasy team. I love the Patriots new additions, and I think they are all ready to get out there and show the NFL what they are capable of.
