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.
Acquired in a trade last year from Miami, Booker actually started one game but failed to really make an impression. The Eagles then drafted LeSean McCoy and this further drops Booker down the Philadelphia totem pole.

Draft Analysis
Round 12, Pick 7
Positives Good Rec skills on a team that likes to throw the ball to the RB. Has a legit chance to beat out buckhalter (who is oft injured) and win the back up job behind Westbrook, who has missed at least 1 game each of the past 3 seasons. Negatives Barring a Westbrook injury, he is a Back up Rb at best. At worst he's a third stringer. Draft Strategy I needed RB depth at this point in the draft and there was not a lot to pick from. I had Booker trageted as a deep sleeper this season and like his potential upside more than any other RB who was on the board. (Contributed by: djsquillz)
Round 14, Pick 11
Positives Just backing up my top selection (Brian Westbrook) with his (hopeful) backup.
Negatives Booker is in a battle with incumbent backup Correll Buckhalter, though reports are that Booker will be the guy.
Draft Strategy This league has been extremely RB heavy during the draft, so I don't want to take a chance that Booker will be selected by another team. I'm simply backing up my #1 RB with the player that (hopefully) will be his backup. (Contributed by: doug_coutts)
