|---|---|---|
| PPR | 13.1 | 11 |
| Half PPR | 11.8 | 8.9 |
| Standard | 10.6 | 6.8 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 2.1 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.
- Sam LaPorta plays first (Sun 1:00 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before D'Andre Swift's late news is known.
Open in Who should I start (your league, more players)
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%.
