Skill Players vs. Defenses: A Stat Tracker

CBS Sports has a neat little tool for easy tracking of skill players’ upcoming games against defenses and how highly those defenses are ranked.

What we’ve done is taken every significant Fantasy Football player and scouted their matchups for the rest of the season. Got a conundrum between two players? This is the place to see which one has the better matchup in a given period of weeks or for the rest of the season.

For example, see any red dots [representing Top-10 rushing defense] on Mike Bell, Pierre Thomas or Reggie Bush’s upcoming schedule? That’s because the Saints pretty much will line up against middle-to-bottom run defenses, which is solid for those players (who will put up the most stats from week to week remains a puzzle).

Give it a look, it’s a quick, easy way to take the stats of the opposing defenses into account when you are deciding your roster each week.
