Fantasy NASCAR Rankings for the FoodCity 500
Andrew Weber-US PRESSWIRE

By Adam McGill

The fantasy NASCAR season has really been shocking this year.  Tony Stewart and Jimmie Johnson do not look like themselves, while Dale Earnhardt Jr. is having a career season.  There is still months left to race for, so anything can happen in the coming weeks.  Below are my fantasy NASCAR rankings for the FoodCity 500:

1. Carl Edwards – Edwards has four top-ten finishes this season and he is due for a win one of these weeks.

2. Jeff Gordon – Gordan finally gets to begin in a decent spot (fourth) and is a great pickup this weekend.

3. Greg Biffle – Biffle continues to impress with 4 top-five finishes in a row.

4.   Ryan Newman – Newman has an amazing qualifying at 125..158 MPH and his #39 car is running perfectly right now.

5. Brad Keselowski – Keselowski may have struggled last week with s 32nd place finish, but it is hard to mess up a fifth place start.

6. Kyle Bush – Bush has 3 top-ten finishes already, including winning the Bud Shootout to open the year.

7. Kevin Harvick – Harvick is a great sleeper this weekend; after finishing eleventh, second, second, and seventh in the last four races.

8. Dale Earnhardt Jr. – “Junior” is driving great this year; with 2 second places finishes in the last four weeks.

9. Jimmie Johnson – “Double J” is not the driver he was last year, but he still is worth a late pick in any first round.

10. Martin Truex Jr. – Truex Jr. continues to surprise, as he has seemingly placed in every race year.
