Common questions

  • Should I trade Brock Bowers for Christian Watson?

    No on value: Brock Bowers is worth 75 and Christian Watson 53, a loss of 22. It can still help a lineup that needs a receiver more than it needs Bowers.

  • Who has more rest-of-season value, Brock Bowers or Christian Watson?

    Brock Bowers, 75 to 53. He rates 16.3 market points a game over 11 games left, against 13.9 over 11 for Christian Watson, each measured above a replacement starter at his own position.

  • How are these trade values calculated?

    Each player's points per game is the median of the market-based PPR points we froze before each week's first kickoff, Weeks 3, 4, 5. A replacement starter's rate is subtracted and the rest is multiplied by his games from Week 6 to Week 17, bye taken out. No expert opinion is involved.
