The market-based projections

Rome Odunze's market-based projection is 9.3 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 13 market sources. That is the 80th highest figure of the 157 players with a market-based projection.

The market-based projection for Deshaun Watson is 18.1 PPR points a game off 4 markets across 9 market sources. That is 90 percent of what a quarterback's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

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