What the call rests on
- Hunter Henry: Sleeper's projection, last changed Fri, Oct 30, 6:00 PM ET
- Darren Waller: Sleeper's projection, last changed Fri, Oct 30, 6:00 PM ET
- Sleeper's projections read Fri, Oct 30, 6:02 PM ET.
- Injury statuses read Fri, Oct 30, 6:02 PM ET, with the projections (hourly). A fresh projection time doesn't mean every status is: game-day inactives, about 90 minutes before kickoff, can come after it.
| Same projections, scored | Henry | Waller |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 9.4 | 7.7 |
| Half PPR | 7.6 | 6.2 |
| Standard | 5.8 | 4.8 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 1.7 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.
- Darren Waller plays first (Thu 8:15 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Hunter Henry's late news is known.
