Strength of Schedule - Week 6

After the first five weeks of the season we generally have enough data to know who the good fantasy players are this season and the strengths and weaknesses of each defense. However, there are still some players that will have had tougher or easier schedules after five weeks and that could struggle in the final 12 weeks of the year. The following chart shows which teams should improve at which position for the rest of the season. For example, we see that for the final 12 weeks of the year, Eli Manning should average 2.4 fantasy points fewer than he has over the first five weeks because he will face tougher opponents.

This means that Eli Manning is a player you might want to consider trading away and maybe look to upgrade for Tom Brady or even a guy like Joe Flacco who should be able to keep up this pace for the rest of the season.
