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: Matt Forte was a clear first round pick in just about every fantasy league a year ago. After a great rookie year, it looked like Forte was going to be one of the future studs at this position for years to come. With the addition of Jay Cutler to the team, I thought Forte would find more success for bigger plays as defenses had to give some respect to the passing game.

Boy was I wrong as Forte went on to be the biggest fantasy bust of the 2009 season. For the year Forte failed to reach a four yard per carry average once again and didn’t make it over 1,000 yards rushing. Where Forte hurt fantasy owners most was in his touchdown total as he posted twelve in his rookie year and only four in his second.

This lack of production has dropped a player that was ranked around the top five fantasy backs from a year ago to barely a top twenty five in 2010.

2010 NFL Fantasy Football Player Rankings: Maybe Forte would still be a top twenty fantasy back if it wasn’t for the fact that Chester Taylor signed with the team and the Bears have the second hardest schedule against the run. When you factor in that they play the Lions twice a year, and they have had major upgrades to stop the run his schedule is truly the hardest in football.

The one area that Forte continued to have success in last year was in the passing game as he posted 57 receptions but with Taylor on the team he will cut away at that total.

Thankfully, it looks like Forte is recovered from his sprain MCL that he injured week three last season and is showing a better burst of speed in OTA’s. Health will be vitally important if Forte is going to be a every week fantasy play for your team this year.

I still hold out hope for Forte to be a productive fantasy option in his career, but we need to see him bounce back in 2010. Look for Forte as a late No.2 running back to flex play option for your squad this season.
