Fantasy Football – Strength of Schedule

An often overlooked item for fantasy drafts is strength of schedule for each player. Though difficult to predict in August one can make a keen judgement on how teams should fair in the season, understanding value that not many see.


Value #1
Ranking the weakest opponents for fantasy playoffs is a great technique when drafting your team. This shouldn’t be the main reason you choose players in the draft, but if you have a difficult choice and the clock is ticking this is a great idea to potentially help get you over the hump come December. I have used this tactic many times with great success and now is a fixture within my draft kits.

Value #2
From the opposite perspective viewing your player schedules come week 10 you will undoubtedly see the trend of a difficult schedule. Take advantage of this. Some players preform far better when playoff hopes are on the line or when their competition is tougher. Understanding the player and his skill set based on the team’s doable aspirations at that time, might provide more value than if they were playing a weaker opponent with no relevance to making a push for the post season.

I won’t lie to you, sometimes this can get frustrating as there is no rhyme or reason for certain things to happen, but I am a big supporter of finding the best match-ups. Having good players is only half the battle, understanding how each player preforms in certain situations is very important. Never just follow your league site projections of match-ups, Do your homework! Better yet let me do that for you!

Stay tuned during the season, I’ll get you to the promise land!
