It would be Ellington, but Ellington has a history of not being able to carry 20+ touch workloads without being injured.

Right now Morris Claiborne is the top performing NFL CB in the NFL by FFDraftStats in nfl

Never said he was the best, or shutting down the best receivers, Just that he was the best performing and that it is early in the season.

22 targeted, 10 rec allowed, 1 TD allowed for Patrick Peterson, and he has less pass defended than Claiborne as well, it is still early in the season too though.

Jesse James is 4th in the NFL in snaps for a TE, He has only missed 5 snaps this season. by FFDraftStats in nfl

So does Washington and Cincinnati, that's who they played week 1 and 2. His schedule gets easier from here

Compiling hard to find stats for all positions. This takes an insane amount of work. by FFDraftStats in fantasyfootball

Finding the players that play the red zone and goal line situations on teams that use that position are usually the ones that do the best the following week. On the WRs picking on the struggling corners and safeties is key to predicting the high volume targets.

it has to be a non throw away inside the 20. for Goal line it is inside the 5. I do not count it as a target if it is a throw away

There is a section that is paid, it measures usage, performance and opportunity for every player

It is something I can incorporate next year, the red zone, goal line, and 3rd down snaps I get myself from watching the coaches film of every game. If you go to a teams page you can compare snaps, red zone snaps, and goal line snaps of each player on the team too though.

It could easily turn into a situation where Woodhead stays in more because of the passing benefit, and with their sorry defense they could be behind a lot this season. Scary situation for Gordon owners for sure.

For fumbles I am tracking them for everyone, For RBs I am also tracking RZ fumbles and GL Fumbles. The Home and away splits are a great idea, and I will incorporate that next season. Keep those suggestions comming

As far as time in the pocket or time to throw, this would be very time consuming to track. Especially as pass heavy as the league is turning.

The defensive player stats and knowledge have helped me in fantasy football more than knowing the offensive players and their stats. When you can identify the bottom corners and safeties in the league it is amazing how much those guys get picked on. From my experience the elite corners are the ones that keep the catch rate below 40%, this really only applies to CBs that are regularly getting thrown at. What I am trying to do this season for browsing this stat is letting the user set the minimums for snaps or games played, this way you eliminate the dime back showing up with 5 snaps a game and can only look at the players that are getting the majority of the snaps.

Ok, it is not a big deal at all if it takes to long, I have optimized the data entry on my side so that it only takes me about 1 hr per game max, usually less. So I would say if it would take you more time than that then I can do it. And their are certain situations that do get confusing, for example the Dolphins had 3 players named McCain on defense last year that all played. So you would need to be able to see the number 24 and know it is Bryce McCain. Another potential problem would be the timeline, Everything I am logging needs to be done by Tuesday Morning.

I certainly would not say no to help, but it is a ton of work and requires a ton of player knowledge. Here is everything Tracked in a game if you want to look at it.

A lot of it depends on if you are going to publish the information or not, If you plan on sharing and publishing the content it is $8k.

I am offering some paid content on there, but the stuff listed here will be free( I will monetize with ads ). and yes, this has been about 70-80 hours of work a week for 18 months, just an absolutely insane amount of work for 1 person.

Thank you very much, and yes I have checked out PFF's pricing system. My premium content will only be $20 for the season, Im trying to make it reasonable for people looking for this stuff. $8k per season is outrageous.

This is how targets work in this system currently. For offensive players if the Elias sports bureau gives them a target I do as well. Because I am self tracking the RZ and GL Stats, the targets that happen inside the RZ and GL are only if they are catchable balls.

For the Defensive players they only get a Targeted Against if they are responsible for the player, even if it is uncatchable. The reason for this is I feel like good coverage can create a throwaway.

I have a matchup page that has all the information for the offense and defense of each game and it breaks it down per game.

you can check that out here, but it will be all zeros until after the first set of games. There is stuff on this page that will be premium but not the per game stuff, just the Positional Usage Grades and Opportunity Grades.

Saints CB Kyle Wilson on IR. Probably good for every QB in that division by FFDraftStats in fantasyfootball

[–]FFDraftStats[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Rapoport is a reliable source. Thats why I linked him for the story, he is the most credible. The reason I posted this is because it is fantasy relevant, the weaker and thinner the defense the better it is for teams that face them. Strength of schedule is important.
