Common questions

  • Should I trade Christian McCaffrey for Kyren Williams?

    No on value: Christian McCaffrey is worth 124 and Kyren Williams 90, a loss of 34. It can still help a lineup that needs a running back more than it needs McCaffrey.

  • Who has more rest-of-season value, Christian McCaffrey or Kyren Williams?

    Christian McCaffrey, 124 to 90. He rates 20.8 market points a game over 10 games left, against 17.4 over 10 for Kyren Williams, 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.
