Projected stats are expected values, so fractional touchdowns are normal. Players marked Q, D or Out carry their current injury designation; a player ruled out drops to zero.
How are these rankings made?
They come from eDraft's projection model, which combines each player's recent usage, the matchup (how the opposing defense has fared against the position over its recent games), the game's betting total and spread, injury status, and the opportunity that opens when teammates are out. The list is ordered by projected points in the scoring you pick.
When do they update?
Projections refresh through the week as practice reports, injury designations and betting lines change, with a final pass before each kickoff window.
