The Lineup Cheat Sheet was created so that Fantasy football managers can get quick answers to crucial start/sit questions with analysis already built in. For more detailed rationale, check out my latest content, including my weekly Lineup Decisions column.
What do the numbers mean? All weekly analysis, from data points to matchup outlooks to game-flow predictions, is represented as a number on a 1-10 confidence scale. The higher the number next to a player's name, the more confident I am that you should start him. The numbers are not projections but confidence scores to help you pick who to start. Every relevant player for this week is listed, so if you do not see a player named, do not start them start him.
To find a specific player, use your search function (CTRL-F on PCs and Command-F on Macs). If neither is an option, or if you're on a mobile device, you can search by typing the name in the URL bar or scrolling down by game. If you're still unsure, just send me a note (@DaverRchard), and I will take a look, time permitting. Remember to use the #AskFFT hashtag!
If you're reading this on Sunday, please refer to CBS Sports' weekly rankings, which are updated in real-time.
