Strength of schedule is calculated from the opponents projected fantasy points allowed for the RB 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.
Runs well and catches the ball a lot, but doesn't score many touchdowns. Ward signed with TB this year and will split carries with Earnest Graham (instead of Brandon Jacobs), which makes him a low end No. 2/high end No. 3 RB.
Sure, Leftwich looked capable, but thats about it. He is not a QB to hang your season on, by any means. He is just too sloppy of a passer...it is only a matter of time before defenses learn to hang out behind our WRs and wait until Byron overthrows ...

Draft Analysis
Round 15, Pick 2
Positives Likely to get some carries if Jacobs gets injured. Negatives Not likely to get many carries and I have Jacobs so I won't be playing him unless Jacobs gets injured. Draft Strategy This strategy is called a "handcuff." I have no idea why. The idea is that you draft the backup to your big guy. Normally, I'm against this strategy because you're hosed if your big guy goes down and you waste a draft pick. But wasting the 15th draft pick is like not wasting a pick at all. This is my last player pick, so why not introduce a little insurance. There's nothing else left on the board. (Contributed by: rdsalemi)
Round 14, Pick 8
Positives I believe that he is the logical handcuff for Brandon Jacobs. Bradshaw is more of a 3rd-down RB. He helped me with RB depth off the waiver wire during my Blue Shark championship season. Negatives Will share carries with Bradshaw if Jacobs goes down. Draft Strategy (Contributed by: tlandavazo)
Round 16, Pick 6
Positives Showed he could step in and produce when Jacobs went down for a bit last season. Negatives Coming off a leg injury, and plays in a crowded backfield. Draft Strategy Bradshaw is draftable in his own right, but Ward is the better handcuff to Jacobs. He will take on a significant role should Jacobs go down, and team with Bradshaw as the carry-heavy side of a RBBC. (Contributed by: Pat_Smith)
