The Lineup Cheat Sheet was created so you can get quick answers to your Fantasy starter/subscription questions with analysis already built in. For a detailed rationale, check out my most recent content, including my weekly Lineup Decisions column.
What do the numbers mean?
All of my analysis of the week, from data points to matchup outlooks to game predictions, is basically represented by a number on a confidence scale of 1 to 10. The higher the number next to a player’s name, the more confident I am that you should start him. The numbers aren’t a projection, just a confidence score to help you choose who to start. All the relevant players for this week are here, so if a player isn’t on the list, don’t start him.
To find a specific player, use the search function: CTRL-F on PC and Command-F on Mac. If neither of those options work, or if you’re on a mobile device, you can scroll by game. If you’re on a mobile device, you can search by game. still If you are unsure, just send a note to X.com (@daverichard) and I’ll take a look at it if time permits. Remember to use the hashtag #AskFFT!
