Quarterback Rank: #3
Overall: #36
Manning started last season slow, recovering from knee surgery. He looked like a shell of his former self. But he put his slow start behind him and had another MVP season. Manning didn't hit the 30-touchdown mark for the first time in four years, but had his fifth straight 4,000-yard season. Manning has been in the league a while, but is just 33 so he has several good years left. The Colts still have a very high-powered offense with weapons like Reggie Wayne, Dallas Clark and Anthony Gonzalez at his disposal. Manning doesn't have a huge arm, but is extremely accurate and cerebral. He knows the Colts offense forwards and backwards.

| When it comes to fantasy QBs, Manning is as consistent as it gets. He is good for 4,000 yards and around 30 scores every season. Expect much of the same this coming season. He can actually improve on last year since he started slow because of his knee problems. Manning is a top-three fantasy quarterback. |
