WR/CB Matchups to Target and Downgrade - Week 11

Welcome to Week 11 of the WR/CB Matchup chart.

WR/CB Matchups to Target and Downgrade - Week 10

Welcome to Week 10 of the WR/CB Matchup chart. As the season progresses, the chart becomes more predictive.

Wide Receiver Matchups to Target in Week 10

As usual, the wide receiver matchup article from last week had some solid recommendations along with a few letdowns, but given the wild week that was Week 9, things went alright for the most part.

WR/CB Matchups to Target and Downgrade - Week 9

Welcome to Week 9 of the WR/CB Matchup chart. Last week DFS players needed to have A.J. Brown and Michael Pittman Jr. in their lineups to have any shot to win a big tournament.

WR/CB Matchups to Target and Downgrade - Week 8

Wide Receiver Matchups to Target in Week 7

Moore (WR-38) had a whopping 13 targets but only snagged five of them for 73 yards […]

The upcoming college football season has much more certainty than we were afforded at this time a year ago.
