Strength of schedule is calculated from the opponents projected fantasy points allowed for the QB position. The best rating is +16 which gives the player the advantage against the defense and indicates an easy opponent, the worst rating is -16 which gives the defense the advantage and indicates a tough opponent.
Schaub has the weapons and offensive philosophy in place to produce top 10 QB numbers in 09. His health and red-zone struggles have tagged him as a "risky" player. After missing 5 games in consecutive years, and throwing only 15 touchdowns in 08, some may be quick to pass on the Texan gunslinger. But 09 is filled with upside. With weapons Andre Johnson, Kevin Walter, Owen Daniels, and Steve Slaton, Houston will once again be a pass-happy offense. Schaub's red-zone efficiency should improve and the Texans offense should be one of the more fantasy friendly units in the league. Those who draft him should be quick to select a solid backup because of his injury history. With a high octane offense, and a revamped defense, the Texans are my surprise team of 09. The race for the AFC South will be a tight one, and there will be more horses running than years past.

If the Texans are unable to re-sign cornerback Dunta Robinson, it will change their philosophy entering the draft. Rather than pursuing a defensive end who can provide a pass rush opposite Mario Williams with their first-round pick, general manager ...

Positives What an arsenal he has. A TE with 80 catch potential. A pass catching second year RB to keeps defenses honest, and one of the best young receivers in the game. This guy has top 5 potential, if he puts it all together, and plays 16 games. Negatives Missed way too many games last year (5). And the year before too (5). Hopefully, not a trend. Draft Strategy First missfire, was really hoping for Ryan to drop. Schaub would have been a much better matchup guy with Ryan than the guy out in front. And I don't see anyone else I like to team him with. Oh well, won't matter until he starts missing games. (Contributed by: Pat_Smith)
