How this sheet is built

How are the defense rankings built?

Every defense is ranked among the 32 teams on what it has allowed per position and per stat this season. Each team lists its five softest ranks. #32 means the most allowed, so the higher the number, the softer the matchup.

Who are the players to target?

The opposing player who leads his team in the matching stat. A soft rank shows where the defense has been weak. It is not a projection for the player, so check his line and hit rates before you act on it.

When is the cheat sheet updated?

Every week, once the previous week's stats have settled. This sheet was cut on Wed, Sep 23 (ET).
