Frequently asked questions
How are the player projections shown?
Each row shows a projected stat line for the player's key stat, the likely range (the middle half of outcomes), the chance of an anytime touchdown and projected DraftKings fantasy points.
How many players are free?
The first five at each position are free every week, in alphabetical order. Members see all 272 players and can sort by projection.
What does the likely range mean?
It is the span that covers the middle half of outcomes. A player lands inside it about half the time, above it a quarter of the time and below it a quarter of the time.
When do projections update?
They refresh through the week as injuries, weather and lines change, and lock when each game kicks off.
