*****As a reminder, we always recommend using the Cheat Sheet in conjunction with the Vegas Tool once it is published Saturday evenings as Vegas almost always identifies a few value plays who aren’t necessarily on the sheet, but may provide excellent flexibility cap-wise. Sometimes we will update the sheet through the weekend as information comes in from injury reports, Vegas or elsewhere*****
HOW DOES THE SHEET WORK?
THE GOAL of the sheet is to reduce the number of players for the weekly slate to players expected to generate Positive Surplus Value (fantasy points over salary expected points). The player pool is narrowed down to players who meet a minimum number of trends.
THE TRENDS are a series of pass/fail threshold tests of position-specific stats predictors. Through the use of predictive models, we have analyzed every predictive metric we could for each position related to Vegas Indicators, Unit Matchups, Individual Matchups, Historical Performance, Game Script, Weather, and so much more.
Using a non-linear model, we’ve found BASELINES for each metric. For each baseline TREND TEST, if the player passed, he receives a [+1]. For example, using the Matchup Tool Rankings vs. QBs, the model found that an Opponent Ranking ranked in the bottom (9) teams allow on average +3.7 surplus points to opposing QBs. If the QB’s matchup is ranked worse than the baseline, the QB receives [+1] trend. In addition to positive trends, negative trends are also included. The model found that the top ranked pass defenses vs. QBs allow on average -5.4 surplus points.

Trying to work with Ertz/Kelce owner to target 1 of the two:
(1) Which TE would you rather target?
(2) Owner wants Mixon. Do i move fwd with it, or does CMC have enough appeal to warrant one of the TE’s?
Starters: Brees, Edelman, Keenan, Mixon, Mixon, Vance McDonald, ARodgers || Bench: Martavis, Kerryon, Fournette, Chubb, Cobb (Superflex league)
ertz, and yes cmc does.
Trade offer to me, .5PPR bonus points at 100 yards, 150, 200 etc. Currently 7-0 , other WR’s Julio and Jeffrey , Other RB’s Conner and Chubb
I Get Gurley, Evans and Kelce,
I send
Barkley, Theilan and Kittle
yes
Who would you start Eric Ebron or Jared Cook
Goff or Wentz.
ebron, wentz
I got a trade offer I have Isaiah Crowell for Calvin Ridley..
My Rb’s.. D. Johnson, Mixon, Doug Martin.
Wr’s.. Mike Evans, T Hill, Crabtree, T Gabriel and John Brown.
no
Do the reports of Hyde taking reps with the 1’s in London practice make you think he’ll outtouch yeldon? Is it enough to start him over Buck Allen in PPR?
pretty much anything is an improvement over allen over the past two weeks.
Luck or Goff?
PPR- Which 2- Nick Chubb, Doug Baldwin, Josh Gordon, Sammy Watkins, Shady McCoy? Thanks.
Should I initiate a trade where I give up Kamara and ask for EElloit back?
In PPR
12 team PPR auction can keep 1 drafted player for $10 more. I drafted Chubb $4 but had to drop him early in the season. Can trade Ingram $16 for chubb. I also have Kamara, henry and Clement.
Possible keepers are:
Ridley would cost $11 next year
Sutton $11
Ingram $26
The rest would cost to much. So would you trade Ingram for Chubb with the chance of keeping him for $4?
Who would I rather own – for my bench –
Mostert, or JRichard. In PPR?
Wondering why you guys have Njoku a little lower this week. Solid matchup. Scored past 2 weeks. Callaway cant catch a cold.
We like him, just a ton of guys this wk
1 Flex PPR- Nelson agholar, Tre Quran Smith, Jack Doyle, Vance McDonald, Martavius Bryant? Thanks.
Think I’d go Tre’Quan
Alright guys need some help. I need a full set up here. Need 2 wr 2rb te, and one flex play. PpR Connor,hunt,Cohen,Chubb. Hill,Sanders,diggs,juju. Grahan or njoku. Please help struggle with league each week. Been picking right but as you can tell it’s rough to decide
Prob Hunt + conner + hill + (use the rankings and tools to choose the WR2)
Flex prob Chubb vs whoever you determine WR3 is . They’re all good plays.
Prob trust Njoku more at TE
Goff or Winston this week?
Need a flex. .5ppr. Kittle, Cobb, Taylor Gabriel
Start 2. Half PPR. Edelman, Tate, Chubb
