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.
