Fantasy Fox: Way-too-early look at the Top 80 playmakers for '15
At first blush, it seems like a needless exercise to project the 2015 fantasy rankings on the same day the 2014 regular season closes.
But hey, we'll do anything to fill that ho-hum 12-day window that comprises the Monday night game from Week 16 (when many fantasy championships are won and lost) ... and the first day of Wild Card Weekend (postseason fantasy leagues!).
To wit, the Fantasy Fox offers his way-too-early look at the Top 80 playmakers for the 2015 fantasy season, excluding kickers, defenses and special teams. And for obvious reasons, the list doesn't include any prospective rookies from next year's NFL draft class -- particularly the bonanza bumper of stars-in-waiting at tailback (Melvin Gordon, Duke Johnson, Tevin Coleman, Todd Gurley, Jeremy Langford).
