Common questions

  • Should I trade Denzel Boston for Jakobi Meyers?

    No on value: Denzel Boston is worth 15 and Jakobi Meyers 4, a loss of 11. It can still help a lineup that needs a receiver more than it needs Boston.

  • Who has more rest-of-season value, Denzel Boston or Jakobi Meyers?

    Denzel Boston, 15 to 4. He rates 10.5 market points a game over 11 games left, against 9.5 over 11 for Jakobi Meyers, 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.
