Week 1 of the NFL season is nearly here, which means it's time for fantasy drafts everywhere to start taking place.
Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor
Last year's highest scoring player, Taylor remains the lead back on a Colts offense that should lean heavily on him for offense. Matt Ryan isn't the stellar quarterback that he used to be, and Taylor had a whopping 333 fantasy points last year, and just two games under 10 fantasy points. That kind of consistency should make him the top overall selection in almost every fantasy league.

Los Angeles Chargers RB Austin Ekeler
Ekeler was surprisingly the 2nd overall finisher among running backs in points for the 2021 season. He ended the year with over 273 fantasy points and he remains in an elite Chargers offense. Justin Herbert might throw a lot, but Ekeler catches a ton of passes and is still an elite option for the 2022 season.
