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.
Bradshaw will be inserted into the vacated role of New York Giant #2 RB this year and based on his 5.3 yard average (67 carries) performance in ‘08, he should do just fine! Don’t forget that Derrick Ward rushed for over 1000 yards last year, backing up Jacobs. So with as much as New York will be running the ball, playing time should not be a problem.

Round 9, Pick 7
Positives Should be busy backing up the oft-injured Jacobs and spelling him as the Giant new version of Ward. Negatives Not the starter, nor the short yardage guy, so his points will come in bursts. So you really have to pick your places to take advantage of his scoring unless an injury makes him the starter. Draft Strategy I don't make this pick if the rookie Brown does not go down for the season, but with the #2 all his, and with the team using multiple backs, I am happy he was there. Bit of a Homer pick too, I will admit. Best time to make a homer pick is the 9th round! (Contributed by: Pat_Smith)
