A healthy Larry Johnson is looking to reclaim his status among the top running backs, but he'll be one of the few Chiefs with a high fantasy value. See which draft tier some of his teammates will be slotted, in this fantasy depth chart summary.

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS FANTASY DEPTH CHART

Key:

PTR= Position Tier Rank. This is the tier level where the player should be slotted in drafts.

1 = Elite Player

2 = Solid Performer

3 = Backend starter/Bench fill-in

4 = Roster filler or long-term prospect

0 = No value

ITR = In The Rotation

PB = Position Battle

S = Starter

QB                                     PTR
Brodie Croyle - S                  3
Damon Huard                       4
Tyler Thigpen                       0
Summary: The Chiefs organization has wanted to instill Croyle as the starter since last season, but he has failed to take advantage of the opportunity.  He was unimpressive as the starter in 2007, posting just 6 TDs with 6 INTs, with a 70% QB rating.  Damon Huard is not the answer either, as he was inconsistent and erratic in his starts (11 TDs, 13 INTS).   Croyle needs to step up big this season or else the Chiefs will look for other options.  He has weapons in Bowe and Gonzalez, and for that alone he can be considered as a backend starter on you bench, possibly used when your main QB is on the bye.  No need to worry about him being taken early, as he'll be drafted in the final quarter of the 32 starting QBs.
