Common questions

  • Should I trade Derrick Henry for Josh Allen?

    No on value: Derrick Henry is worth 100 and Josh Allen 74, a loss of 26. It can still help a lineup that needs a quarterback more than it needs Henry.

  • Who has more rest-of-season value, Derrick Henry or Josh Allen?

    Derrick Henry, 100 to 74. He rates 17.0 market points a game over 11 games left, against 23.2 over 11 for Josh Allen, 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. 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.
