Common questions

  • Should I trade Malik Nabers for Michael Wilson?

    No on value: Malik Nabers is worth 37 and Michael Wilson 25, a loss of 12. It can still help a lineup that needs a receiver more than it needs Nabers.

  • Who has more rest-of-season value, Malik Nabers or Michael Wilson?

    Malik Nabers, 37 to 25. He rates 13.2 market points a game over 9 games left, against 11.9 over 9 for Michael Wilson, 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.
