Common questions

  • Should I trade Jayden Daniels for Saquon Barkley?

    No on value: Jayden Daniels is worth 16 and Saquon Barkley 5, a loss of 11. It can still help a lineup that needs a running back more than it needs Daniels.

  • Who has more rest-of-season value, Jayden Daniels or Saquon Barkley?

    Jayden Daniels, 16 to 5. He rates 18.5 market points a game over 10 games left, against 8.9 over 10 for Saquon Barkley, 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.
