Methodology
How to read Better Projections
Better Projections helps fantasy football managers compare players across rankings, Dynasty, auction values, and trades. The numbers are designed for draft-room decisions, not as guarantees about exactly what will happen.
Rankings & Projections
Rankings can be viewed in Standard, Half-PPR, and PPR scoring. Projected fantasy points show a full-season total, while PPG shows expected points per game.
Floor, Expected, and Ceiling are three useful views of a player's range. Expected is the central projection, Floor is a realistic downside case, and Ceiling is a realistic upside case.
Expected Games Missed is shown separately as availability context. It is meant to help you understand player risk without hiding the underlying projection.
Dynasty
Dynasty rankings look beyond one season by combining multi-year projected value with age, career development, and changing player outlooks over time.
League settings matter. Superflex increases quarterback demand, TE premium increases tight end scoring, and starter counts change which positions are scarce in your league.
Auction Values
Recommended Auction Value estimates how much a player helps build a strong roster under your league settings and budget.
It is not a prediction of market price or final sale price. Your room may spend more or less depending on managers, nominations, team needs, and timing.
Trade Analyzer
The Trade Analyzer supports Redraft and Dynasty views. Redraft uses current-season value, while Dynasty uses multi-year value and can include future rookie picks.
It also considers consolidation value. One elite asset can be more useful than several smaller pieces because lineup spots are limited, especially in shallower leagues.
How Better Projections Works
Better Projections uses historical player performance, usage, role, age and career development, and team context to estimate future fantasy production.
The projections are checked against past seasons, then updated as relevant information changes. That can include role changes, team changes, injuries, depth-chart movement, and other meaningful football context.
Projection Disclaimer
Projections are estimates, not guarantees. Use them as a disciplined starting point, then layer in your own league tendencies, roster needs, and risk tolerance.
