Rest of season projections. Choose your scoring and position below.
Experimental baseline. No validated matchup or availability model.
Data through Week 7. Cutoff: 2026 regular season through Week 7, available source games only.
Data coverage and model limits (4 notes)
Experimental per-appearance production baseline; no validated matchup, depth-chart or availability model.
Historical evaluation conditions on observed future appearances; it does not validate injury or playing-time forecasts.
Overall ordering is projected points, not positional scarcity or replacement value.
GNG excludes ambiguous special-teams player-seasons from calibration; 31 current players remain unavailable pending scoring reconciliation.
How these ranks are built
These projections combine the published model baseline with available current-season evidence. Read each player rationale for the inputs and limitations.
Model: inseason_observed_ppg_shrinkage_v1. Projected points cover the remaining schedule. PPG is the per-game estimate. The draft baseline remains a separate board.
