Filling Out Your Fantasy Football Cheat Sheets

Fantasy football cheat sheets are a key part to a fantasy football draft, and need to be filled out with care and careful research. It's with the use of these fantasy football cheat sheets that two major things are accomplished: You will not be caught off guard at your draft, and you will not annoy people by taking too long to make your pick.

The fantasy football cheat sheets for quarterback should be pretty familiar to even the most casual NFL fan. The Indianapolis Colts' Peyton Manning, the New Orleans Saints' Drew Brees and the New England Patriots' Tom Brady will probably be the top three quarterbacks taken in fantasy football drafts. After that trio, the second level of quarterbacks on your fantasy football cheat sheets might include the following: the Chiefs' Trent Green, the Seahawks' Matt Hasselbeck and the Cowboys' Tony Romo.

Fantasy football cheat sheets for running backs should also feature some familiar names, such as the San Diego Chargers' LaDainian Tomlinson, the Kansas City Chiefs' Larry Johnson and the San Francisco 49ers' Frank Gore. But after those top three, there are a lot of running backs that should make the top 10 of any fantasy football cheat sheets, players such as the Rams' Steven Jackson, the Steelers' Willie Parker and the Eagles' Brian Westbrook. One running back who might be pushing the top three is the New Orleans Saints' Reggie Bush. The USC alum did not rush for 1,000 yards, but his rushing and receiving skills make him a high pick and at the top of many fantasy football cheat sheets.

Figuring out which receivers to put at the top of your fantasy football cheat sheets is always difficult for a couple of reasons. Unlike running backs and quarterbacks, receivers are at the mercy of the flow of the game when it comes to stats. If a defense is double-teaming a top receiver, the quarterback will look elsewhere. Still, there are some locks for the top of most fantasy football cheat sheets: the Colts' Marvin Harrison, the Bengals' Chad Johnson and the Carolina Panthers' Steven Smith. There are a lot of other good receivers to add to your top 10 of fantasy football cheat sheets as well, including the Colts' Reggie Wayne and Green Bay's Donald Driver.
