The Shark owner has a big advantage in early redraft leagues. Use that advantage well, and the whole season will be a feeding frenzy on the rest your league.

In Part III of the strength of schedule analysis, we will look closer at the RB position and identify 20 players facing SOS that are favorable or unfavorable to start the season.

What good is a supposed expert if he can’t pull off a few amazing feats of prognostication every once in a while? That’s the reason I started writing my preseason Big Fat Claims a few years ago. While for the most part I draft for safety, each year I try to pick apart the status quo and find a few gems before anyone else has an inkling of what they might do. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it fails miserably, but it sure is a lot more fun than cranking out the same analysis that a thousand other Web sites do each year.
