Darren Waller finished TE33 and Konata Mumpfield WR145, which are two different ladders.

Byes and availability

Darren Waller is off in Week 5. No bye is listed for Konata Mumpfield.

What would change the answer

1.8 points a game is the entire case. The market restates it every week, and a line that moves moves the order with it.

The draft market is the half that is missing: when live drafts hold these two again they can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the drafts rather than the market-based projection when they do.
