Fantasy Football: 8 Players With Favorable Schedules
Sam Bradford, QB, Minnesota Vikings
Opposing Defenses: 1st Easiest
Opposing Pass Defenses: 1st Easiest
It may not be exciting to draft Sam Bradford, but the Minnesota Vikings' 2017 schedule makes Bradford a very appealing option, especially for those looking to stream the position.
This season, the Vikings are projected to play the easiest schedule of opposing defenses, including the easiest slate of opposing pass defenses.
The middle of the season represents a particularly easy stretch for Bradford and the Vikings as over an eight-game span, they'll play the Chicago Bears, Cleveland Browns, Los Angeles Rams, and the Lions (twice). Each of those teams ranks in the bottom half of pass defenses, per our projected Defensive NEP.
With a favorable schedule, improved offensive line and a healthy Stefon Diggs, look for Bradford to improve upon his QB23 finish from last season.
