Fantasy Football Big Board 2017 61–80

61. Latavius Murray, RB, Vikings

Murray will be competing with Dalvin Cook for the starting running back spot in Minnesota. Even if he does not win it, Murray should still get a decent amount of touches, especially in the red zone.

62. Andrew Luck, QB, Colts

Luck is an incredibly talented player with a very good offense around him. If his offensive line can hold up, look for him to put up monster numbers.

63. Matt Ryan, QB, Falcons

Ryan, coming off of a super bowl loss, is sure to play with a fire lit under him. Ryan should have a multitude of big games this season.

64. Drew Brees, QB, Saints

At age 38, Drew Brees is still going strong. He still has a very good offense filled with talent surrounding him, and will consistently put up big points.

65. Frank Gore, RB, Colts

Gore like the player above him, is not letting father time affect him. Gore is the primary back for the Colts, and is good for 15+ carries a game. Gore is a good option for a consistent RB2 or Flex.

66. Brandon Marshall, WR, Giants

Marshall adds another weapon to the already very talented Giants offense. Marshall can use his big frame to catch a lot of touchdowns in the end zone. The threat of Odell Beckham will open up one on ones for Marshall

67. Danny Woodhead, RB, Ravens

The shifty scat back signed with the Baltimore Ravens, and will most likely take the 3rd down snaps. Woodhead is an excellent receiving threat, making him extra valuable in PPR formats.

68. Theo Riddick, RB, Lions

Riddick will be the main back for the lions, and should take most of the 1st and 2nd down carries, splitting the rest with Ameer Abdullah.

69. Kelvin Benjamin, WR, Panthers

Benjamin is a big time receiver who has not been the same since his injury in 2015. He is a huge threat, and uses his 6–5 frame to bully defenders. Benjamin could be a huge value pick here if he plays well this season.

70. Jonathan Stewart, RB, Panthers

As Stewart ages, he will most likely be taking a back seat to dynamic rookie Christian McCaffrey. Stewart is still worth picking though; he will get goal line carries, and will get more carries in the beginning of the season as McCaffrey accustoms to the NFL.

71. Jimmy Graham, TE, Seahawks

Graham is an insanely talented tight end who has not been able to play as well as he did in New Orleans, but still is productive nonetheless. Graham has the talent to break out for a huge game at any moment.

72. Adrian Peterson, RB, Saints

Peterson will be competing for the starting spot in the backfield along with Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara. Peterson is not the player he was a few years ago, but is still a valuable asset. He very well may end up becoming the starter for the Saints if he can perform.

73. Tyler Eifert, TE, Bengals

The injury prone Eifert is entering his contract season, and will need to prove himself to get paid big money. If he can stay healthy, Eifert certainly has the talent to do so, and is worth a higher pick than this.

74. Eric Decker, WR, Jets

With Marshall on the Giants, Decker will be the primary target for whoever ends up playing quarterback for the Jets. He is the only decent receiver on the roster, and is a decent bet to put up big numbers.

75. Tevin Coleman, RB, Falcons

Coleman is the primary receiving back for the Falcons, and gets a decent number of touches for being the secondary back in such a talented offense. He is best suited as a Flex player or a borderline RB2.

76. Rishard Matthews, WR, Titans

Matthews will be the primary wideout for Mariota until he can develop some more chemistry with rookie Corey Davis. He has good WR3 potential.

77. Jordan Matthews, WR, Eagles

Matthews should see his production drop with the signing of Alshon Jeffery, but will still get some catches. He is best suited as a WR3 or a low tier WR2

78. Tyreek Hill, WR, Chiefs

Via ftw.usatoday.com

The electrifying playmaker made most of his money last season on special teams, but his dynamic speed gives him good receiving potential. Hill’s role as a pass catcher should increase this season.

79. Desean Jackson, WR, Buccaneers

Jackson was brought in to take some pressure off of Mike Evans, and to add another weapon to the already loaded Bucs offense. He will be a monster in the slot and on catch and runs.

80. Willie Snead, WR, Saints

Snead broke on to the scene last season, proving himself as a legit player in the league. Snead is a player who has the potential to break out for 20+ points during any game.
