- Michael Carter: Sleeper's projection, last changed Thu, Oct 29, 12:10 AM ET
- Sleeper's projections read Thu, Oct 29, 12:21 AM ET.

| Same projections, scored | Young | Carter |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 2.1 | 0.1 |
| Half PPR | 1.6 | 0.1 |
| Standard | 1.2 | 0.1 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 2 points or more in the other direction flips the call; Sleeper keeps adjusting its projections until kickoff, and this page reads them again at most an hour after it last did.

This week’s projections are Sleeper’s, scored with PPR settings. The percentage is how often a projected gap like this held up across the 2025 season; checked against 2026 games (not used to fit it), the stated chances so far run a few points high, so read a 60% call as nearer 55%.
