The market-based projections

Kyle Williams's market-based projection is 4.3 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 13 market sources. That is the 115th highest figure of the 201 players with a market-based projection.

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