Welcome to week 11!
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, FleaFlicker, FantasySharks, NFL, FFToday and NumberFire.
The data for this article was collected on 11/16/22. For more details on
WR gold mining and how to interpret the graphs above, see

From the graph below notice that:
- DOnta Foreman, Kenyan Drake, AJ Dillon, D’Andre Swift and Clyde
Edwards-Helaire 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.
- Christian McCaffrey, Miles Sanders, Cordarrelle Patterson, Samaje
Perine and Deon Jackson 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, Devin Singletary, Tony Pollard, Gus Edwards,
Ezekiel Elliott and Clyde Edwards-Helaire 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.
