Advanced NFL Snap Counts Report From Week 9

Snap counts tell us who is playing but they don’t always paint a clear picture of who is producing for our fantasy football lineups. By digging deep into the NFL Snap Counts Report Week 9, we are able to pull […]

NFL Snap Counts Frequently Asked Questions

What are NFL snap counts?

Snap counts represent the total number of offensive plays a player participated in during a given week.

Why should I care about NFL snap counts?

The number of times a player is on the field for a player can be incredibly useful. It helps track usage, and how players are used and provide fantasy football managers with the ability to look beyond the usual on-field production by adding context to those more traditional statistics.

How are your NFL snap-count numbers compiled?

NFL snap counts are tracked by the NFL Game Statistics and Information System (GSIS). For the last two years, each player has had a chip inserted in his shoulder pads so that radio transmitters in stadiums can track his every move on the field. This is how the GSIS compiles snap counts (and other on-field information).

How can I use NFL snap counts to leverage my success in fantasy football?

Understanding playing time can be a key factor in setting your weekly lineup. In particular, understanding and identifying trends that might give you an early jump on acquiring free agents or making trades for players who might quietly be gaining playing time.

What are the possible drawbacks to using NFL snap counts as part of my fantasy football lineup strategy?

As FantasyPros recently noted, studying snap counts and the percentage of snaps played is one of the easiest ways that we can determine one of the most basic, but important questions for potential fantasy success: Is this player even on the field often enough to make a difference? That said, NFL snap counts only outline playing time, and being on the field is only the first step to fantasy relevance. It’s not the only step. Don’t emphasize snap counts over production.

The Snap Counts report and tool is invaluable in breaking down what’s happening behind the numbers.

It’s hard to believe how quickly the 2022 season is flying by. Further complicating matters is the arrival of those pesky bye weeks. That places added importance on the Fantasy Football Waiver Wire: Week 10.

Here are the top fantasy-relevant, low-rostered free agents to target ahead of Week 10, with FAAB recommendations.

Week 10 byes: Ravens, Bengals, Patriots, Jets

FAAB denotes Free Agent Acquisition Budget

It’s hard to believe we are now into double-digit weeks of the 2022 season. The playoffs are now just a month away. The Fantasy Football Waiver Wire: Week 10 is crucial toward the next step: securing that playoff berth.

Here are the top fantasy-relevant, low-rostered Fantasy Football Waiver Wire: Week 10 free agents to target with FAAB recommendations.

Week 10 byes: Baltimore, Cincinnati, New England, New York Jets

FAAB denotes Free Agent Acquisition Budget

 

Jeff Wilson Jr. (RB) Miami Dolphins (10% FAAB) – There were concerns with Wilson’s usage after he was traded to Miami. But, after one game, it looks more like a happy homecoming. Wilson has been reunited with Raheem Mostert and Mike McDaniel and the results were very encouraging after one game. In his Dolphins debut, Wilson was in on 50% of Miami’s snaps. Wilson turned 12 touches into 72 yards and a score. Still rostered in less than half of ESPN leagues, Wilson has the chance to be a key contributor down the stretch in an explosive offense.

Mecole Hardman (WR) Kansas City Chiefs (9% FAAB) – After a slow start, Hardman has topped 12 fantasy points in four consecutive games. That run has elevated the fourth-year wideout to WR32 for the season. The volume hasn’t always been there but Andy Reid finds creative ways to get the ball into Hardman’s hands. And Hardman found the end zone five times in Kansas City’s past three contests. Only rostered in 36% of ESPN leagues, Hardman should be a priority add in all formats.

Def vs WR Matchups Report

November 5, 2022 Scott Atkins

This Fantasy Football tool shows you how well (or how poorly) each pass defense is performing against each position this NFL season.

RECEIVING YARDS ALLOWED BY POSITION

This new featured tool displays how each defense performs against their opponent’s receiving yardage gained by position.

So for example, if you see a team is ranked 1st vs. WR #1, that defense is currently the best at limiting their opponent’s WR #1 yardage compared to other teams. Or if you see a team is ranked 32nd against WR #2, that defense is the worst against WR #2’s or more accurately, the defense is allowing the most yards to WR #2’s compared to the other teams in the league. This a great tool to find and exploit useful matchups. Don’t forget to check out all the positions as well (WR #1, WR #2, Other WRs, TE & RB).
