Welcome to week 10!
Custom gold-mining charts (that are specific to your league settings)
are now available in
our
app. They are calculated slightly differently -using the top and
bottom deciles for the error bars instead of the pseudomedian confidence
interval. Visit
our
app and set up an account to input your league settings.
The graphs below summarize the projections from a variety of sources.
This week’s summary includes projections from: CBS: CBS Average,
FantasyPros, FantasySharks, NFL, FFToday, NumberFire and FleaFlicker.
The data for this article was collected on 11/10/22. For more details on
WR gold mining and how to interpret the graphs above, see

From the graph below notice that:
- Raheem Mostert, Jonathan Taylor, D’Andre Swift, Clyde
Edwards-Helaire and Deon Jackson are the five players with the
largest upside (as measured from their (pseudo)medians). For
these players, some projections are placing much higher valuations than
others. If you are projected to lose this week by quite a few points and
are looking for a risky play that may tip the balance in your favor,
these are players to consider.
- Dalvin Cook, Antonio Gibson, Kareem Hunt, Rex Burkhead and Mark
Ingram are the players with the smallest downside, which
suggests that while their median projection might not be great, there is
less uncertainty concerning how poorly they may perform. So, if you are
likely to win by a lot and want to reduce your downside risk, these
players may deserve extra attention.
- On the other hand, Leonard Fournette, Aaron Jones, Tony Pollard,
Jonathan Taylor and Chuba Hubbard are the five players with the
largest downside this week. If you are planning on starting them,
it may be prudent to investigate why some projections have such low
expectations for these players.
