RosterWatch Week 10 Matchup Tool Now Available

alex bylineWelcome back.

This is a proprietary weekly tool provided by RosterWatch for our PRO community.

It is designed to be a decision-making tool for gauging the defensive opponents your fantasy players face. If you are new to this, our time-tested and most popular flagship in-season tool, the instructions for use couldn’t be simpler, and can be found below.

RW PRO users can download the matchup tool (or access the online tool for use) in the downloads section of their profile by clicking HERE.

DO NOT RELY ON “FANTASY POINTS AGAINST” as your primary indicator for player matchups ever again. It is a flawed metric, as you’ll see, which will cause you heartache and struggle.

The rankings represented here are derived via a proprietary algorithm which takes into account not only standard “fantasy points against” metrics, but also (and most importantly) weighted averages and medians of separate individual player and defensive-unit scouting grades for members of the 2021 unit that will be run-stopping, pass-rushing, or covering against the position in question, along with other analytic trends including projected game-script, game-flow, Vegas indicators, volume of total snaps and much, much, more.

INSTRUCTIONS:

To use the tool, think about your fantasy player.

Let’s say you own Bucs WR Chris Godwin, and would like to see how he matches up against the defense he faces this week.

First, look down the list and find the Bucs (Godwin’s team). You will see that the Bucs’ opponent (OPP) is Washington in Week 10, and there are four color-coded cells in the horizontal columns marked “OPP vs. QBs,” “OPP vs. RBs,” “OPP vs. WRs” and “OPP vs. TEs.”

These are the OPPONENT’S (in this case the WFT’s) OFFICIAL ROSTERWATCH MATCHUP RANKINGS AGAINST THESE GIVEN POSITIONS.

They are not the rankings for the BUCS, but rather, for the OPPONENT THEY FACE IN THIS GIVEN WEEK (the WFT). In the “OPP vs. RBs” cell for the Bucs, you’ll notice a big, blue ‘No. 1’. This means Godwin faces our best possible matchup for opposing WRs in Week 10 (the WFT). This is a great indicator for fantasy owners of Godwin, as well as other receivers like Mike Evans and Antonio Brown (if healthy) and is a positive one for those thinking of rostering them in DFS contests.

Repeat the same process for other players on your roster as you are trying to decide which players to start and which to sit in season-long leagues. Also use it to identify which upside-plays to roster in DFS contests based on matchup.

With the launch of the online tool, you can now sort by any column: vegas line, over/under, and matchup ranks vs. each position for easy reference. The Vegas lines are updated hourly for your reference and research. Please note that matchup ratings can change slightly through the week as lines and totals shift.

“1″ is the best (easiest) matchup, “32″ is the worst (toughest).

  1. Should I pick up Alexander Mattison and drop a bench RB Michael Carter or Eli Mitchell? In PPR

  2. I have RWood WR on my bench right now in PPR
    Would I rather drop him and pick up BCooks, Waddle, Elija Moore KToney Dev Smith ?

  3. Need input,

    12 team. Full point ppr. 3-6 record and in panic mode. Getting smacked witb points against.

    Would you trade keenan allen, higbee, and knox to receive kelce, emmanuel sanders, and mattison?

    1. I would take that trade given the rest of your WRs.

      1. Thanks Alex

  4. Hey guys! Standard league! I have Chuba Hubbard and Perine on my bench. A number of interesting guys on waiver wire. Who would you pick up and which guy above would you dump? Available…Bolden, Stevenson, Eno Benjamin, Lev Bell, Rojo, Mcnichols, Jeff Wilson

  5. Well if Harris sits, then stevenson. if both harris and stevenson sit then bolden. mcnichols should be owned for sure though. I’d drop perine. i’d keep hubbard one more game at least.
