Running back Strength of Schedule

Using our rules for our money leagues, we came up with a schedule strength ranking for the running back position. We are using our fantasy defenses report to calculate the rankings. This report can be found in all of our leagues under the "reports" heading. We took the schedule of each team and entered the average number of fantasy points allowed to running backs last season from all of their opponents to get our fantasy points allowed number. This is a good indication of the running backs with the most favorable schedules for fantasy scoring for the coming season. Defenses obviously change from year to year, but knowing the running backs that might have the easiest schedule for fantasy is always a good idea when formulating your rankings and draft strategy.

The Saints have the easiest fantasy schedule for running backs this season. This is great news for Alvin Kamara, who could have a big season if he can stay healthy. New Orleans has plenty of questions at quarterback after the retirement of Derek Carr. Kamara could be the focal point of new head coach Kellen Moore’s offense. He could get a huge workload with a favorable schedule.

Bijan Robinson had a huge season last year and seems setup for more success this year. He gets the second most favorable schedule. You can make a strong case for Robinson to be the top pick in this year’s draft and a great schedule helps that case even more.
