This list is for fantasy football players who like to laugh in the face of danger and wait to draft quarterbacks. Spend the first four or five rounds drafting highly productive fantasy stars then meet these quarterbacks as they slide in drafts all around America.
Tony Romo [Dallas Cowboys]: Romo is the go to late round fantasy quarterback. For years Romo has been relegated to the back of the fantasy pack of quarterbacks but statistically in fantasy and in real life Romo is a top 5 quarterback. If Romo is staring at you in any round past the fourth and you have managed to not take a quarterback, then Romo is your guy.
Phillip Rivers [San Diego Chargers]: Rivers is another underappreciated guy who should be undrafted late into fantasy drafts. Rivers never really has excellent targets and the Chargers are not specifically known for their receiving core but Rivers gets the job done every season. He is a solid fantasy quarterback especially if you have used your first few picks on productive players. Rivers will be an unexpected surprise, expect him to be taken between the fifth and seventh rounds.
Matt Ryan [Atlanta Falcons]: Ryan has one very solid target in Julio Jones and very dependable back up wide receivers. Ryan struggled last year thanks to a poor offensive line however I fully expect the Falcons to get it together in 2015. Ryan should be drafted between the fifth and seventh rounds.
Ben Roethlisberger [Pittsburgh Steelers]: Big Ben will most likely go earlier than this; his stats from the 2014 season were off the charts. If he does fall I doubt it will be out of the sixth round so if you start seeing the quarterbacks start to go grab him while you can. Big Ben should go between the fourth and sixth round.
Joe Flacco [Baltimore Ravens]: Flacco has been very solid for a number of seasons, plus he has led the Ravens to the post season every year since his extension. Flacco often gets overlooked when drafting but he should be a solid addition to any fantasy team. Expect him to go in your drafts late quarterback gold rush around the fifth or sixth round.
