Before you’re 2010 fantasy football draft begins, it’s always good to see the schedule of particular players you’re prospecting for your future team.
While there is no guaranteeing which teams will be strong and which teams will be weak in a given season, it’s still good to have an idea of the opponents your players will face.
Once the 2010 – 2011 season has started, we will find out which teams are for real and which teams are going to fold up. Who would have thought the Bengals would go undefeated in their division and the Titans would start out losing their first six games in 2009?
Throughout the season, you can always come back to our site and use our schedules for each team and player for your reference. Alternatively, you can also print out or download the schedule as well.

2009 Fantasy Year In Review: If
Matt Forte was the biggest disappointment in 2009,
Brandon Jacobs had to be No.2 in fantasy circles. Jacobs was thought to be a true top ten fantasy running back last season after he posted fifteen touchdowns the year before.

With an offense that had a strong offensive line and still at an age of 26, Jacobs looked to be in the prime of his career. For the season Jacobs was horrible as an early season knee problem limited his power. Jacobs went on to post only a 3.7 yard per carry average, 835 total rushing yards and five touchdowns.
Of all the stats that were disappointing it is the five touchdowns that is really troubling as he wasn’t even reliable enough on his team to plunge them in at the goal line.
2010 NFL Fantasy Football Player Rankings: Some fantasy analysts are basically giving Jacobs a pass for his performance last year but not me. The Giants still have the third hardest schedule to run against this year and Ahmad Bradshaw could continue to steal work from him if he is slow.
Jacobs is saying his knee feels much better than last offseason and that is good, but it’s a different story when you put the pads on and you need that knee to barrel over defenders.
With all that said, Jacobs could make a run for double digit touchdowns this season and may get close to 1,000 yards rushing. Just remember that he does tend to miss a game here and their so be prepared to use someone else when he goes out.
