Suggestion for FBG (1 Viewer)

[WildGeneral]

I don't think that I'm the only guy who waits forever to draft a defense and I am also one of the guys who waits until late to draft a QB. Ultimately, I end up getting a decent QB (Vick/Favre in 2 different leagues this year), but my defense is always questionable from week-to-week.

Every year, then, I find myself looking at the matchups for weeks 14-16 for my QB's and defenses in advance. I try to find good matchups for defenses (& QB's) that I wouldn't have had on my roster otherwise. I then try to make moves according to those matchups in advance, so that I have a decent match-up when the waivers clear, etc.

It would be more work (initially) for FBG, but I can't imagine that I'm the only one doing this every year. ...and while I ultimately make my own decisions on roster management, it's always nice to have that 2nd opinion on the team/player that I'm picking up for the following week--this is where it would be helpful to have FBG's come in.

Anybody else might be interested in such a service? I'm guessing it would only have to 'kick-in' after, say, week 12 (or so)...

what you'e looking for has been a part of FBG's for a long time now and it's called Strength of Schedule by Gray and I find it one of the best tools on FBG's. I use it the exact way you described for the entire season. The tool becomes more accurate after a number of weeks since the sample size becomes larger and defenses strengths and weaknesses become better known.
