The gap

  • Board size309 draftable players

Draft data is not current for these two, so the figures that depend on it are left out. The call above comes from each player's usage.

Where the draft room stands

Live drafts hold no current pick on Troy Franklin, and the board ranks him 144th overall on the rest of his evidence.

Live drafts hold no current pick on Brycen Tremayne, and the board ranks him 200th overall on the rest of his evidence.

The market-based projections

Troy Franklin's market-based projection is 4.0 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 8 market sources. That is the 124th highest figure of the 207 players with a market-based projection.

The market-based projection for Brycen Tremayne is 0.5 PPR points a game off 1 market across 12 market sources. That is 30 percent of what a wide receiver's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

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