Common questions
Should I trade Caleb Williams for Khalil Shakir?
No on value: Caleb Williams is worth 16 and Khalil Shakir 5, a loss of 11. It can still help a lineup that needs a receiver more than it needs Williams.
Who has more rest-of-season value, Caleb Williams or Khalil Shakir?
Caleb Williams, 16 to 5. He rates 18.5 market points a game over 10 games left, against 9.7 over 10 for Khalil Shakir, 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, 6, 7. A replacement starter's rate is subtracted and the rest is multiplied by his games from Week 7 to Week 17, bye taken out. No expert opinion is involved.
