Every year, thousands of websites display their personal rankings and cheat sheets. I’m just not a fan. Does it really matter where I have DeSean Jackson ranked on my cheat sheet? I’m not touching him in drafts, since I’d have to take him way earlier than I want to. So why even bother ranking him? Personally, I’d rather make predictions that are much more tangible. After reading the following predictions, you can tell me how much of an idiot I am, proclaim me as a genius, or ask back the 10 minutes of your time that I just wasted. The choice is yours. But without further ado, I bring you the 2010 Fantasy Football bold predictions….
