The fantasy NASCAR season is almost underway. To help you draft this year, here are five fantasy NASCAR stars who will bounce back in 2015.

Kahne started the year with three top-15 finishes in his first first four full races of the 2014 season. Unfortunately, he ended the year poorly by posting a meager three top-15 finishes in the final 11 races of the year. Kahne showed glimpses of superstardom last year, though, and I fully expect him to take another step forward in 2015.

4. Carl Edwards

After posting back-to-back top-five finishes in 2010 and 2011, Edwards has finished outside the top-eight in three straight seasons. He hasn't won more than two races since 2008 and the veteran tends to disappear on certain tracks. However, he is still one of the most established drivers on the circuit and he should easily find a spot among the top-five when it is all said and done.

3. Kyle Busch

Bush was a popular fantasy option week after week last year, but he finished 10th in points and racked up just one win on the year. For a guy that has dominated certain tracks throughout his career, KB should be much better in 2015.

2. Brad Keselowski

After winning the 2012 championship, Keselowski has not finished outside the top-four in back-to-back seasons. However, he still posted 17 top-five finishes and won a circuit-high six races. Look for him to be even better this year and easily crack the top-three in 2015.

Much like Keselowski, Johnson had an uncharacteristic year by his standards. Sure, he registered four wins and 20 top-10 finishes, but he finished in 11th place in points on the circuit. The five-time Champ won't have back-to-back poor performances, so look for him to bounce back in a big way in 2015.
