2012 Fantasy Football Rankings v1.2

It's Friday, and it feels like a good time to do another rankings update.  I guess at some point I might actually go to version 2.0, but for now these are all minor edits.  Some training camp notes and my own personal thoughts have me moving a few guys around, and once again I'm only going to add comments where someone has gone up or down (and a couple of notes here and there for guys who probably will move).  For previous comments, check my original rankings.


1. Arian Foster 
2. Ray Rice 
3. Calvin Johnson
4. Aaron Rodgers
5. LeSean McCoy
6. Tom Brady
7. Drew Brees
8. Chris Johnson
9. Maurice Jones-Drew: I don't like the holdout, and I also think CJ bounces back this year.
10.Ryan Mathews
11.Matthew Stafford
12.Larry Fitzgerald
13.Greg Jennings
14.Darren McFadden: Michael Bush is in Chicago now, so I switched McFadden and Forte.
15.Matt Forte
16.Jimmy Graham
17.Rob Gronkowski
18.Steven Jackson
19.Jamaal Charles
20.Ahmad Bradshaw: In the 2nd round, I think I'd rather have the proven RB over the rookie.
21.Trent Richardson
22.Brandon Marshall:  Might as well go all in with this guy.
23.DeMarco Murray
24.Roddie White
25.Frank Gore
26.Michael Turner
27.Adrian Peterson: Not sure he'll be ready Week 1.  I had him too high with that risk.
28.Wes Welker
29.Andre Johnson: Sounds crazy, but I almost feel like he fits in the guys I'll let someone else draft.
30.AJ Green
31.Julio Jones
32.Hakeem Nicks
33.Brandon Lloyd
34.Antonio Gates: With Gronk and Graham unavailable to me in my league, I move Gates up.
35.Mike Wallace: I don't like that Antonio Brown got paid and he didn't.
36.Victor Cruz
37.Jason Witten: Moving Witten up for the same reason as Gates.
38.Cam Newton
39.Michael Vick
40.Green-Ellis: Pretty solid feature back in a much better fantasy situation in Cincy.
41.Darren Sproles
42.Beanie Wells
43.Reggie Bush
44.Fred Jackson

54.Marques Colston
55.Demaryius Thomas
56.Percy Harvin
57.Dwayne Bowe
58.Steve Smith
59.Miles Austin

61.Jordy Nelson
62.Jeremy Maclin
63.Stevie Johnson
64.Vincent Jackson
65.James Starks

67.Eli Manning
68.Peyton Manning
69.Antonio Brown
70.Eric Decker
71.Torrey Smith
72.DeShaun Jackson: Getting personal and moving him down because he's a headcase.

103.Greg Little
104.Mike Williams(TB)
105.Jonathan Baldwin

110.Titus Young
111.David Nelson
112.Denarius Moore
113.Michael Floyd

137.Jay Cutler
138.Matt Schaub
139.Josh Freeman
140.Andrew Luck
141.Big Ben: News of a torn rotator cuff issue and will get sacked a ton.  No thanks.
142.Ronnie Brown: Note: This could change to Jackie Battle or someone else.
143.Mikel Leshoure: If Best out indefinitely, Leshoure could move up the board considerably.
144.Isaiah Pead: For now, he's just a backup running back.  Had him too high I think.
145.Alex Green
146.Tim Hightower
147.Rashad Jennings: Keep an eye on MJD holdout.  Jennings might have to move up.
148.Ronnie Hillman
149.Delone Carter
150.Bernard Scott
151.Dion Lewis
152.Bernard Pierce
153.Rashard Mendenhall: Could be Jonathan Dwyer if Mendenhall on regular season PUP list.
