Rank	Player	Team	Comment
1	Adrian Peterson	MIN
2	Arian Foster	HOU
3	Doug Martin	TB
4	Calvin Johnson	DET
5	C.J. Spiller	BUF	show
[Jun 10th] Ryan Hester says: If Spiller isn't the focal point of Buffalo's offense, something is wrong. Combine that with Head Coach Doug Marrone's rumored fast-paced offense, and Spiller will have plenty have opportunities to showcase his game-break talents. He has fantasy star written all over him.

7	Dez Bryant	DAL
8	Brandon Marshall	CHI
9	LeSean McCoy	PHI
10	Julio Jones	ATL
11	Percy Harvin	SEA
12	Jamaal Charles	KC
13	Ray Rice	BAL
14	Jimmy Graham	NO	show
[Jun 10th] Ryan Hester says: Graham is match-up proof. He's an every week, no-doubt-about-it starter. My low ranking of him relative to the other staffers is an indication of the lack of value I place on the tight end position. The delta between TE1 and TE8 (replacement level) in 2012 was 44 total points (2.75 per game). The delta between RB11 (the RB rank where Graham is being selected) and RB34 (the RB rank where TE8 is going off the board) was 103 points (6.4 per game). Take the running back early and wait on tight end. (hide this)

44	Dennis Pitta	BAL
45	Alfred Morris	WAS
46	Stevan Ridley	NE
47	Colin Kaepernick	SF	show
[Jun 18th] Ryan Hester says: I obviously had Kaepernick ranked higher before Michael Crabtree's injury. Even without his top receiver, Kaepernick will have a full offseason to acquainted with his other targets. His running ability alone makes him a threat to be a top-five fantasy perform in any given week. Any player that can put up the totals that he did against Green Bay in last year's playoffs is high on my list. I prefer leaning towards the high-ceiling players, and Kaepernick fits that bill.

48	DeMarco Murray	DAL
49	Frank Gore	SF	show
[Jun 10th] Ryan Hester says: Gore is part of a loaded backfield in San Francisco. A capable backup in Kendall Hunter, a lighting-fast change-of-pace guy in LaMichael James, and perhaps the best running quarterback in the league will all cut into his touches. Gore is valuable to this team, but they have postseason aspirations again in 2013, which means Gore won't be overused at this stage of his career. (hide this)
