The market-based projections

Chase Brown's market-based projection is 15.6 PPR points a game, built from 5 markets across 11 market sources. That is the 16th highest figure of the 209 players with a market-based projection.

The market-based projection for Aaron Rodgers is 16.5 PPR points a game off 4 markets across 11 market sources. That is 80 percent of what a quarterback's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

Aaron Rodgers's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.

Byes and availability
