LA Rams: Ranking NFC West WRs for fantasy football draft
By Larry Brake
LA Rams fans looking to stockpile receivers in their fantasy football draft, here’s a guide for NFC West WRs
LA Rams fans have been blessed with some good WR play. But those who take part in Fantasy Football know that a good team player in the NFL is not always the best FF player for your team. And the Fantasy football drafts are just around the corner. In recent seasons, good wide receivers have become as valuable as good running backs. Since the NFL is embracing a more passing type of game, you should take a look to see how the LA Rams receiving corps ranks with their fellow NFC West counterparts.
Of course, the passing game begins elsewhere. Quarterback play is just as important. It’s up to the quarterback to get the ball to the receiver in a timely manner and placement. Most of all, the receiver has to consistently catch the ball.
Go West, FF owner
Inside the NFC West, age does not appear to be a major factor at wide receiver. There is the ageless one in Arizona, Larry Fitzgerald. There are young speedsters in Seattle and everyone else in between.
You should thoroughly study the scoring rules for your fantasy league. Receivers score points differently from league to league. For example, bonus points are given for long receiving touchdowns or points are given per reception. Be sure to maximize your scoring potential.
Also, plug into your line up as many receivers as your league rules allow. There is great talent out West to build your receiving corps. Be careful about drafting players with the same bye week!
Here is a quick look at drafting WRs for your fantasy league.
