The fantasy football 2014 season is starting up and that means fantasy owners are looking for the best team names, including options for funny team names as well as pop culture picks and names that play off of NFL player names and while they aren't all winners, we have a list of options for fantasy owners below and more will be coming this summer.
The fantasy football season in 2014 has some major questions, but at the top of the draft things should be fairly easy for owners, as Peyton Manning, Drew Brees and Aaron Rodgers are three quarterbacks expected to have big seasons. Players like Jamaal Charles, Matt Forte and Adrian Peterson are also strong choices, but the way the league is going, Brees and Manning likely will put up more points than anyone this year.
Calvin Johnson and Brandon Marshall are two big names to watch at WR and Demaryius Thomas and Alshon Jeffery also could be putting in big seasons once again. Anyone watching the Giants should snag Victor Cruz, as he could clean up in PPR leagues with the new offense for the Giants and so could Rueben Randle. Odell Beckham is a wild card and he could be a solid sleeper option once he gets healthy.
David Wilson has retired and that makes Andre Williams and Rashad Jennings strong draft options for the Giants. Jennings led the Raiders in rushing last season and with the new offense likely having a ton of screen passes, those backs could rack up points. Jamaal Charles and Matt Forte are the best backs in PPR leagues and Arian Foster should have a good season after coming back from being injured.
The Broncos likely will be the highest scoring team along with the Saints and some options are WR deeper in drafts includes Sammy Watkins and Brandin Cooks as rookies. Those players could put up big numbers this season, especially Cooks, who was the most productive wideout in college last year and now he is playing with Brees.
Johnny Manziel is not a player to draft yet, as the Browns have shown that they want him to start as the backup, but in deeper leagues or keeper leagues he could be a nice option. Jimmy Graham is the top tight end and Rob Gronkowski is also expected back healthy. If Gronk can play a full season he could be the best TE of the group and Tom Brady is hoping he can do it. The team has Danny Amendola looking to rebound from a so-so season and Brady is hoping he has all his weapons healthy this year.
