First year using Kubiak for my draft and really enjoyed it.
Now, is there a way to use Kubiak (or any other feature on this site - also a premium member) to help determine which players to start or sit each week based on matchups?
I.e., is there something that shows me which guys to play based on a given matchup?
Please let me know if I'm not entirely clear.
Thanks.

Re: Using Kubiak During the Season?
No, not really.
KUBIAK is usually updated once in-season (usually around week 3 or 4) but there aren't really any tools that help with lineup decisions or based on matchups.
Re: Using Kubiak During the Season?
I don't think it's premium, but I make heavy use of the "DEFENSE vs. TYPES OF RECEIVERS" section on the http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/teamdef page during the season.
It helps a ton with deciding 3rd WR and flex spots. As with most FO stuff, it becomes more useful as the season goes on and more data is added.
Re: Using Kubiak During the Season?
when does the update come out? it was huge for making trades last year.
Re: Using Kubiak During the Season?
Around Week 4 or so if memory serves (and it generally hasn't recently).
Re: Using Kubiak During the Season?
I just looked up last years final update and it was October 4th and i think i recall it coming out a little later than what they expected (a few days).

Wish i had access to the KUBIAK projections :(
Always looking to learn more about the game. Always.

Not Kubiak, but...
Have you looked into the Fantasy Football Answering Service? It is a product offered to those who purchased the premium membership. A brief summary of the service and link can be found here: http://www.footballoutsiders.com/premium/index.php
Hope this helps.
I'd like to add, this is also my first year as a member. I have enjoyed the Almanac, Kubiak, links, and discussion boards. Thank you, and this extends beyond to just the FO staff.
Re: Using Kubiak During the Season?
Speaking of learning about the game, I also like listening to Greg Cosell when I get the chance. I also find that ESPN radio has much better contextual 'in game' analysis than what they produce on TV.
For more stats, also check out Pro Football Focus though I find them to be not nearly as useful as FO.
