Common questions

  • Should I trade D'Andre Swift for Josh Jacobs?

    No on value: D'Andre Swift is worth 63 and Josh Jacobs 45, a loss of 18. It can still help a lineup that needs a running back more than it needs Swift.

  • Who has more rest-of-season value, D'Andre Swift or Josh Jacobs?

    D'Andre Swift, 63 to 45. He rates 15.3 market points a game over 9 games left, against 13.3 over 9 for Josh Jacobs, 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, 8. A replacement starter's rate is subtracted and the rest is multiplied by his games from Week 8 to Week 17, bye taken out. No expert opinion is involved.
