How upside is rated
Upside is a 0 to 100 score against the other players at the same position this week, blended from usage, the opponent's points allowed, the market's team total and player lines, work freed by injured teammates, and Sleeper, Yahoo and news activity. High is the top 15% of the position, Rising the next 20%, Moderate the next 25%. It is a read of the inputs, not a projection.
A player listed Out, Doubtful or on injured reserve is not rated, and a Questionable listing lowers a rating. A player with too small a role to read is left off rather than guessed at. Defense figures blend in 2025 until the 2026 sample is big enough to stand alone. Ratings refresh through Sunday morning and hold at each game's kickoff.
