Which RB's have cake playoff schedules? (1 Viewer)

[TheFanatic]

Last year, I targeted Rudi Johnson in the offseason because he had a cake playoff schedule. Well, Rudi dogged it last year but I was able to trade him for Jamal Lewis who had an equally cake playoff schedule and in the end I won the title.

So who has the cake playoff schedule this year in weeks 14-16 (or 17 if you go that far)

Indy has a pretty nice run from Weeks 13-15 of @Cle, Cin, Det but then they go into Jax for week 16.

ADP has a sweet playoff schedule - @Det, @Arz, ATL

Those were just a couple off the top of my head.

Also the inverse. Who has really bad playoff matchups?

I believe in this, but a little early, no?

Why? We could wait till preseason but that won't tell us anything on who can stop the run. We can wait till a few games into the season but then you're looking at targeting guys in trades and not in the draft or auction. We can readjust this during the season as we get a better idea of who used to stop the run but can't now and who used to get run all over but now can stop the run...I have a Free Agent bidding night in a month and an initial startup dynasty draft coming soon too. This will help make decisions in both....

A few to consider:

Steven Jackson (Ari/Sea/SF)

Ronnie Brown (Buf/SF/KC)

Lawrence Maroney (Sea/Oak/Ari)

LT has an unreal regular season schedule (nearly the best possible based on last years rush defenses) and has a nice playoff schedule. Only 4 teams in the top 1/2 rush defense wise Pitt (4), NE (10), NO (13) and Indy (15). Buff (25), Atl (26), KC (28) x2, Jets (29), Den (30) x2, Oak (31) x2, and Miami (32) that's 10 of his 16 games vs. the bottom 1/6th of the league. That's sick for the reigning #1 RB.

The playoff sched. is...

Oak (31)

KC (28)

TB (17)

(last years' rank)

I looked at Maroney but there is only one problem with him. The games against Seattle and Oakland are both on the road in back to back weeks. The Pats are going to be draggin and it might linger into the Cardinal game week 16.

I think Oak and KC could easily have 2 of the most improved run Ds in 2008. Not like that will be hard considering how awful they were but still, I think both teams made moves to improve.

KC probably moreso than Oak but both have a long way to go to even be respectable.

Dorsey will make an immediate impact for the Chiefs, he's the best DT to come out of college since Warren Sapp IMHO.
