Common questions
Should I trade Garrett Wilson for Josh Jacobs?
No on value: Garrett Wilson is worth 57 and Josh Jacobs 45, a loss of 12. It can still help a lineup that needs a running back more than it needs Wilson.
Who has more rest-of-season value, Garrett Wilson or Josh Jacobs?
Garrett Wilson, 57 to 45. He rates 15.4 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.
