Hey, Skum - do you have a link to this order that shows the strength-of-opponents measure?

Thanks,

LOL - that site's in Danish!
I can't read that!

I'm not doubting it - I just like to see the "strength of schedule" numbers, too.

Great stuff Skum.
Do you do a Mock draft?
I live for this kindof shit during the offseason.
We have a 2 round mock draft competition here at work.
I won $85 bucks on it last year.
;D

Great. I get pretty involved in it, offseason moves/plans, as soon as I know the Vikes are out of it.

Gonna be a interesting season what with the 7 mill increase in CAP this year.
Most teams will be able to resign anyone that is good.

That will make the draft crucial again for all teams looking to fix holes.

Too tough to make a prediction on this but I would say we draft a DE

You should add Mario Manningham to that list. I think he is the most complete WR out of anybody in the draft. He runs solid routes has great speed and good hands.
